"Texas hasn’t reported a new outbreak-related measles case in nearly a month — a hopeful sign that one of the largest outbreaks the United States has seen in decades is starting to slow. But the measles threat hasn’t faded as new outbreaks and growing case counts in other states add to the national tally."

#RFKJr’s decision to “retire” the previous 17-member panel was widely decried by doctors’ groups & #PublicHealth orgs, who feared the advisers would be replaced by a group aligned w/RFKJr’s desire to *reassess*—& possibly end—longstanding #vaccination recommendations.

The new appointees to the Advisory Cmte on #Immunization Practices [#ACIP] include Dr. #RobertMalone, the fmr mRNA researcher who emerged as a close adviser to RFKJr in the #measles #outbreak.

Today in Labor History June 6, 1832: French monarchist forces put down the June Rebellion (AKA the Paris Uprising of 1832). The uprising, lasting from June 5-6, involved Republicans trying to overthrow the monarchy. The uprising played a prominent role in Victor Hugo’s “Les Misérables.” In addition to anger over the persistence of the monarchy, the population was furious over their poverty and the vast wealth gap between the classes. Crop failures, food shortages and high inflation also contributed to the uprising. And a cholera outbreak earlier in the year had killed over 18,000 Parisians (over 100,000 French, in total). Also preceding this rebellion was the Canut workers revolt in Lyon.

“The Society of the Rights of Man,” a Jacobin organization, led the uprising. They had a well-organized army and they were supported by workers of many nationalities, including Polish, Italian and German refugees. Initially, the rebels were victorious, conquering major portions of Paris. However, on the night of June 5, 20,000 National Guardsmen, bolstered by 40,000 regular army troops, surrounded the rebels and ultimately put them down by June 6.

Today in Labor History June 5, 1832: The poor of Paris revolted against the new monarchy, in the wake of crop failures, food shortages and a cholera epidemic, which killed over 100,000 people in France. The poor were especially hard hit by the outbreak. Many believed that the wealthy had poisoned their wells. The Society of the Rights of Man organized an army and raised the red flag, declaring "Liberty or Death." Nearly 100 Republicans died in their attempt to overthrow the government. Over 70 monarchists died defending it. The uprising was the inspiration for Victor Hugo's “Les Miserables,” which depicts the period leading up to the rebellion. Hugo was living in Paris at the time, working on a play. When he heard the gunfire, he ran outside to see what was happening, and quickly got pinned down by gunfire, taking shelter between Republican barricades.

#TaylorFarms facing lawsuits over children and a woman following an E. coli outbreak linked to romaine #lettuce that affected 89 people across 15 states, including eight victims in Indiana, some who suffered acute kidney failure – due to undisclosed #outbreak of #BigAg animal feces borne illness in #California grown lettuce.

Lead attorney bringing cases issued statement “It is disappointing, but with 20,000 employees at Health and Human Services (#HHS) being fired, investigating, and reporting on outbreaks and alerting the public to the cause is clearly not a priority for this administration. If the gutted #CDC and #FDA can no longer do the job, we will step up to inform and protect the public – so much for ‘Make America Healthy Again (#MAHA),'” said William “Bill” Marler.
