      I’m quite proud of my little #flufighter! So brave, and she’s doing her part to protect her community (especially her mom, who can’t get vaccinated because she’s getting immunotherapy treatments). Did you get your #flushot?! Thanks @Walgreens! @CDCFlu CDCFlu pic.twitter.com/BCIjzJOUKU

      4/4 To engage widest audience (which is necessary to achieve public health, especially vaccinations), we must resist temptation to over politicize. Those you actually need to reach most on this issue won’t trust you if they feel your agenda is scoring political points >> health.

      Now let’s all work TOGETHER to engage all Americans, acknowledge and try to address concerns, and help our Nation understand vaccines are a public health win, and one of the best ways we can protect ourselves and our communities! #vaccineswork

          Measles is easily treated by VitA. 450-500 deaths / 180,000,000 pre-1960. The vaccine was a Johnny-come-lately Figure from a Harvard report, 2001. VitA studied in Cochrane report, here. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28282701 pic.twitter.com/Wpna6pjTWu

          How do we do that? I literally spent 4 hours asking people to get a flu shot at Wal-Mart (that was my only job for the day) and not a single person said yes

          1) Thanks for your efforts to promote flu vaccine. 2) Motivational interviewing/ appealing to your audience. Eg- “Would you say you’d do most anything to protect the kids in your life? DYK last year 80,000 died from flu, and most kids who died were unvaccinated?”

          Trust is a gift. Once you have been down the road of bureaucratic bullshit, FDA failures, the fast track process, the damage control....you are now enlightened and knowledgeable to how the real world works. Betrayal is powerful, twice as shy & smarter. Wanna job at the FDA?
