Melinda Gutierrez+FollowMidwife Booted for Wild Vaccine ClaimsA midwife in Northern Ireland just got struck off after posting on social media that vaccines 'attack babies' in the womb and telling a pregnant woman not to wear a mask during Covid. The Nursing and Midwifery Council said her posts and unsolicited advice put people at risk and seriously undermined trust in the profession. She doubled down on her views, showed zero remorse, and now she's out of a job. Wild times in healthcare! #healthnews #midwifery #covid19 #Health00Share
Joel Sweeney+FollowCDC Vaccine Boss Steps Down Amid ShakeupBig shakeup at the CDC: the official leading Covid-19 vaccine recommendations just resigned right as the government pulled its advice for healthy kids and pregnant women to get the shot. This move goes against medical evidence, especially for pregnant women, and could make getting Covid vaccines trickier and pricier for those who still want them. The drama behind the scenes is wild—what do you think about these changes? #CDC #Covid19 #Vaccines #Health101Share
Spencer Brewer+FollowModerna’s New Vax Gets Green Light!Moderna just scored FDA approval for its next-gen COVID-19 shot, mNEXSPIKE—even with all the investor drama and rumors flying around. This new vax is for adults 65+ and anyone 12-64 with health risks, and it’s got some cool upgrades: lower dose, longer shelf life, and easier storage than Spikevax. Despite all the chatter about changing vaccine guidelines, the CDC still recommends COVID shots for healthy kids (if parents/doctors agree). Big pharma drama, but Moderna’s moving forward! #Moderna #COVID19 #VaccineNews #Health10Share
elizabethwang+FollowPregnant? Kids? Big COVID Vax News DropMajor shakeup: The feds just stopped recommending COVID vaccines for healthy pregnant people and kids, and experts are NOT happy. Docs say the science hasn’t changed—COVID is still risky for pregnant folks and little ones, and the vax is proven safe. Now, insurance coverage and access could get messy, and families might lose the choice to vaccinate. Plus, this move skipped the usual expert review, so legal battles are likely. Wild times for vaccine policy! #COVID19 #VaccineNews #PregnancyHealth #Health72Share
Christian Boone+FollowModerna Drops a New COVID Shot—But There’s a CatchModerna just got FDA approval for a new COVID-19 vaccine, mNexspike, but it’s not for everyone. This next-gen shot uses a much lower dose and is only for adults 65+ or people 12-64 with health risks. It’s not replacing the old vax—just adding another option. The twist? These limits are new for the U.S., and some say it’s politics, not science, driving the change. What do you think: smart move or too cautious? #COVID19 #Moderna #VaccineNews #Health925Share
Melanie James+FollowCDC Drops COVID Shots for Kids & Pregnant WomenBig shakeup: COVID vaccines are no longer on the CDC’s recommended list for healthy kids and pregnant women. RFK Jr. announced it, saying it’s a win for “common sense and good science.” But not everyone’s cheering—doctors are worried this will confuse parents and limit access, especially since COVID can still be risky for some kids and pregnant people. Insurance might not cover the shots anymore, either. What do you think—smart move or risky business? #COVID19 #Vaccines #CDC #Health507Share
reyesbrian+FollowWhy Some Skip the COVID BoosterTurns out, not everyone’s lining up for their annual COVID booster—especially younger folks and those with less schooling. Egyptians are the most chill about getting the shot, but Jordanians and Ghanaians are way more hesitant. The biggest reason? Fear of side effects. But here’s the twist: people who know more about the vaccine and have a positive attitude are way less likely to skip it. Looks like education and good vibes matter more than you’d think! #COVID19 #VaccineHesitancy #HealthNews #Health712Share
tuckerariel+FollowCOVID & Miscarriage: What You Need to KnowDid you know getting COVID before or during pregnancy could double or even triple your risk of miscarriage before 20 weeks? A new study looked at nearly 27,000 pregnancies and found the risk jumps if you had moderate to severe COVID. But don’t panic—miscarriage is still rare, and experts say vaccines and good prenatal care can help keep you and your baby safe. If you’re planning to get pregnant, talk to your doc about vaccines and managing any health conditions! #PregnancyHealth #COVID19 #MiscarriageAwareness #Health00Share
Brandon Burke+FollowYour Genes Might Link Mental Health & COVIDWild new research says some mental health conditions like depression, ADHD, and PTSD might actually share genetic roots with how your body responds to COVID-19. It’s not just about lifestyle or stress—your DNA could be playing a double role in both your mind and your immune system. Scientists even found specific genes that connect mood, stress, and immune response. Makes you wonder how much of our health is all tangled up together! #MentalHealth #COVID19 #Genetics #Health92Share
suarezpatricia+FollowCOVID-19’s Sneaky Kidney Side EffectJust found out COVID-19 can double your risk of advanced kidney disease—even if you never had kidney issues or severe symptoms at first! This risk is way higher than with the flu, especially if you’re over 45 or have diabetes or high blood pressure. Men are hit harder, too. Basically, even a mild COVID case could have long-term effects on your kidneys. Wild, right? Time to keep an eye on those labs! #COVID19 #KidneyHealth #CKD #Health2919Share
