A new preprint study shows the shingles vaccine reduces hospital-coded shingles but not dementia risk over eight years. The study has methodological strengths but significant limitations, notably in data completeness regarding dementia diagnoses. Anti-vaxxers use this unpublished study to challenge numerous studies that show that the vaccine is linked to lower dementia risk.

A recently published preprint study shows that the shingles vaccine clearly reduced hospital-coded shingles but did not reduce hospital-code

A recent survey indicated that over 72% of US adults would be open to a hypothetical, low-cost vaccine that could reduce dementia risk.

A recent survey indicated that over 72% of US adults would be open to a hypothetical, low-cost vaccine that could reduce dementia risk.

A recent survey revealed that over 72% of US adults aged 50 and older would consider a cost-effective vaccine that could reduce dementia risk by half. Despite its potential benefits, 28% would refuse the vaccine, indicating a significant level of vaccine hesitancy among the population. The survey highlights demographic differences in willingness.

According to a new survey, more than 72% of US adults aged 50 years or older were open to receiving a hypothetical cost-effective, multidose

The CDC reports a significant rise in rabies activity in the U.S., with increased human exposures, including near-exposures in North Carolina. Rabies is fatal once symptoms arise, highlighting the importance of immediate postexposure prophylaxis. Effective prevention relies on pet vaccinations and awareness of rabies transmission through bites and scratches.

Despite HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr's unscientific comments about rabies and shutting down the CDC's rabies testing (which was later

The Pennsylvania Department of Health has reported four deaths linked to a measles outbreak, including an 18-year-old who died of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. Since January 2026, Pennsylvania has documented 767 cases, with many complications indicating the risks of measles. The decline in MMR vaccination coverage increases the likelihood of further fatalities.

The Pennsylvania Department of Health has announced the fourth death that appears to be linked to the ongoing measles outbreak. The latest d

On September 13, 2026, a 40-year-old unvaccinated woman died from measles complications in Pennsylvania, amidst an outbreak that infected 676 people. The CDC excluded this and two previous deaths from their national tally, prompting criticism of public health officials. Measles is dangerous for both children and adults, with serious complications.

On 13 September 2026, the Washington Post reports that a 40-year-old woman in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, has died of complications from

Lt. Colonel Theresa Long has announced an investigation into 2,544 US military deaths linked to the COVID vaccine, despite lacking relevant medical expertise. Her claims rely on VAERS data, which cannot establish causation. Existing evidence from the Defense Department asserts the vaccine's safety, contradicting Long's narrative and highlighting concerns about misinformation.

Major physician groups are issuing their own RSV, flu, and COVID vaccine recommendations due to confusion from the CDC and ACIP. Highlighted recommendations include vaccinating all children aged 6 months and older against the flu, and specific COVID and RSV guidelines for high-risk groups, emphasizing the importance of scientific consensus over misinformation.

Because of the CDC and Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) inaction and confusion, major physician groups have issued their

The US FDA has approved four COVID vaccines targeting the XFG variant for the 2026-2027 season, developed by Moderna, Pfizer and BioNTech, Novavax, and Sanofi. While the vaccines are available for high-risk individuals, the CDC's lack of guidance leads to confusion. Recommendations from various health organizations emphasize the importance of vaccination as COVID remains a threat.

A recent study indicates that recipients of the recombinant shingles vaccine experience a lower future risk of cardiovascular events.

A recent study indicates that recipients of the recombinant shingles vaccine (Shingrix) experience a lower risk of cardiovascular events compared to those who received the live-attenuated vaccine (Zostavax). While causality is not established, Shingrix may also provide ancillary benefits, including reduced risks of dementia and heart disease.

Dr. Vinay Prasad expected us to believe obviously absurd things. There's no reason to trust him or care about what he says today.
