Skepticism in U.S. Is Widespread, Politico Poll Reveals
Nearly half of U.S. adults think the science on vaccines remains
up for debate and that vaccine mandates are damaging, while only 39% think that
the science on vaccines is clear and it is damaging to challenge it, according
to a Politico poll conducted last month. “It is clearly no longer a fringe idea
to question what we are being told by the mainstream sources we have long been
told were the ‘sources of truth,’” Dr. Pierre Kory told The Defender.

Del breaks down a major shift in
vaccine policy after HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. rewrote the ACIP
charter following recommendations submitted by ICAN’s legal team.
The battle over America’s public health future is
intensifying. Jeffrey reports that Dr. Erica Schwartz, former Deputy Surgeon
General during Trump’s first term, is now the White House frontrunner to lead
the CDC. Her record includes crafting mandatory vaccination policies and
coordinating the seriously flawed federal COVID response, prompting serious
questions about whether this pick represents the institutional reset many had
hoped for.
Across the Atlantic, the UK’s
independent COVID Inquiry formally acknowledged that COVID vaccines caused
serious injury and death in some recipients, calling for urgent reform of the
nation’s vaccine damage compensation scheme. A striking admission in the
report: the compensation program was so poorly publicized that many injured
people never knew it existed, a pattern that will feel familiar to anyone who
has followed the US Vaccine Injury Compensation Program.
A new Politico/Public First poll of
nearly 4,000 Americans finds that more people now doubt vaccine safety than
trust it, with a plurality supporting fewer vaccines and prioritizing bodily
autonomy over mandates. Jefferey argues this reflects a long-building shift in
public sentiment that Washington has been slow to acknowledge.
The week’s biggest development may be
the ACIP charter overhaul. After a judge blocked RFK Jr.’s restructured
committee, ICAN urged Kennedy to amend the charter before the April 1st
deadline, and he delivered. The updated charter now mandates expertise in
toxicology, pediatric neurodevelopment, and recovery from vaccine injuries,
while adding non-pharma-funded organizations to balance industry influence.

Food activist Vani Hari (Food Babe) joins
Del Bigtree to discuss the growing national fight over glyphosate and the push
to shield pesticide manufacturers from liability. With more than 170,000 cancer
lawsuits already filed against Bayer/Monsanto over Roundup exposure, Hari is
organizing a major rally at the U.S. Supreme Court called ‘The People vs.
Poison,’ taking place April 27 in Washington, D.C.
Hari explains why activists, farmers, scientists, and
health advocates from across the political spectrum are joining forces to
oppose legislative efforts that could grant pesticide companies immunity from
future lawsuits. Toxicologist Alexandra Muñoz also weighs in, outlining
scientific evidence linking glyphosate exposure to DNA damage and cancer.

and how the system developed more than two centuries ago continues to guide
practitioners today.
Del and Gabrielle discuss homeopathy’s growing use in
children’s health, fertility, mental and emotional wellness, pain management,
and even agriculture, where homeopathic preparations are being studied as
potential alternatives to toxic pesticides. Traub also discusses the historical
battle between homeopathy and organized medicine, current regulatory pressure
on homeopathic products in the United States, the study Americans for
Homeopathy Choice Act (HR 750), and her documentary Introducing Homeopathy.

Jefferey
Jaxen covers a Politico vaccine safety poll and measles vaccine effectiveness
data.
Every measles headline follows the same
script, cases spike, anchors alarm, and the solution is always more vaccines.
Jefferey cuts through the noise to ask the questions corporate media won’t. The
original goal of the measles vaccine program wasn’t just individual
protection,
it was global eradication. Decades later,
measles continues circulating in predictable cycles, and blaming a handful of
unvaccinated children ignores a far more complicated scientific reality that
the public health establishment has little incentive to acknowledge.
The science on vaccine-induced immunity tells a more
nuanced story than the “97% effective” soundbite. A peer-reviewed study
tracking children’s antibody levels after two MMR doses found that within a few
years, 25–50% of vaccinated children drop into a medium-to-low antibody range,
making them susceptible to subclinical infection and capable of transmitting
measles without symptoms. Jefferey draws a direct parallel to the COVID vaccine
efficacy debate: high initial protection, followed by significant waning that
public health messaging never adequately addressed.
This raises a question Jefferey argues officials are
actively avoiding: if vaccinated individuals can be asymptomatic carriers, why
aren’t community-wide antibody tests being conducted during outbreaks? Instead,
focus stays on unvaccinated individuals — who, when symptomatic, are visibly
sick and kept home, while generating lifelong natural immunity. Jefferey calls
on federal health officials to publicly release antibody testing data during
outbreaks to get an honest picture of what’s
actually driving
transmission.
The peer-reviewed literature is hard to ignore. Studies
on measles reemergence in developed countries found that 2–10% of two-dose
recipients never develop protective antibody levels. During the 1989–1991 US
outbreak, 20–40% of cases had been previously vaccinated. In a 2011 Canadian
outbreak, 52% of cases had received two doses. Jaxen also flags the political
dimension, South Carolina recently tried to eliminate religious vaccine
exemptions during a local outbreak, a bill killed only after parents flooded the
statehouse.

Jefferey
Jaxen covers environmental chemical exposure risks, and new research raising
concerns about erythritol and ultra-processed foods.
A wave of new science is exposing what for decades was
dismissed as background noise and Jefferey
is
connecting the dots. A new study on erythritol, the zero-calorie fermented
sugar alcohol found in keto products and sports drinks, finds it crosses the
blood-brain barrier and disrupts the brain’s vascular function in ways that may
increase stroke risk. It entered the food supply under the FDA’s broadly
permissive “Generally Recognized as Safe” designation, meaning it was never
rigorously reviewed. For now, Jaxen’s advice is simple: read your labels.
Harder to avoid are forever chemicals,
and new research is raising urgent concerns about their impact on developing
babies. A study on PFDA, a common PFAS compound, finds it may disrupt the liver
enzyme CYP26, which regulates vitamin A levels in pregnant women. That
disruption, researchers warn, could interfere with a critical signaling pathway
for fetal development, potentially contributing to craniofacial birth defects
like cleft palate and craniosynostosis, which already account for roughly a
third of all congenital birth defects worldwide. Scientists are calling this a
significant mechanistic finding.
On the food side, a major new study
finds that every 10% increase in ultra-processed food calories during pregnancy
is linked to an 11% higher risk of preterm birth and a 5% higher risk of
preeclampsia, two of the leading causes of maternal and newborn death in the
US. The kicker: the old USDA food pyramid was actively steering Americans
toward these same foods for decades, a problem compounded by the fact that RFK
Jr. inherited a 453-page food directive largely written by food industry
lobbyists when he took office.
Jeferrey
ties these findings to the broader MAHA Initiative, noting that the Trump
administration directed HHS to examine environmental toxins, particularly their
effects on pregnant women and children, from day one. He argues that the
political resistance Kennedy faces in doing this work stands in stark contrast
to the silence of previous administrations, which approved forever chemicals,
bisphenols, fluoride, and artificial dyes without serious scrutiny. Practical
takeaways from the segment: filter your drinking water, ditch nonstick
cookware, and check ingredient labels for erythritol.

New Natural Treatments of Cancer
Are
CT Scans
the Big Hidden Cancer Risk No One Warned You
About?
CT scans are projected to cause about 103,000 future cancer
cases from just one year’s worth of imaging; the scans expose patients to
ionizing radiation that damages DNA and increases cancer risk.
Abdomen and pelvis CT scans pose the highest risk, contributing
to 5% of all cancer diagnoses, which is comparable to risks from obesity and
alcohol consumption.
Children face greater vulnerability to radiation damage, while
radiation effects accumulate over time with each scan, often taking four to 11
years before related cancers develop.
Historical evidence suggests radiation safety standards were
manipulated to favor industry interests; further, some imaging centers expose
patients to 50 times more radiation than others with little regulation.
Patients can protect themselves by
asking if scans will change treatment plans, requesting MRI or ultrasound
alternatives, and documenting radiation exposure when CT is necessary.
