RFK Jr. is talking about the agency no longer publishing papers in Lancet, JAMA, NEJM, rather leaning towards establishing in-house publications.

Great news, and could mean a boost for the Journal of the IMA.

Of course, the BIG story this week was the COVID jab for healthy children and healthy pregnant women has been removed from the CDC recommended immunization schedule.

Please someone share the logic of limiting the no vax policy to healthy kids and pregnant women. If anyone shouldn’t be getting the jab it is anyone who is unhealthy. Taking someone who is sick and making them even sicker seems stupid to me.

We agree, @vegandan and we will continue to advocate for full withdrawal of the COVID vaccine.
