Find More Great Info From Dr. Melanie Matheu Here: SUBSTACK: https://lilscience.substack.com TIKTOK:https://www.tiktok.com/@laughterinlight YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@LaughterInLight Hawk talks with immunologist Dr. Melanie Matthew about the upcoming flu season and the devastating impact of RFK Jr as HHS Secretary. Australia experienced record-setting influenza deaths this year, with flu killing more people than COVID. The H3N2 variant mutated to evade vaccine protection, leading to unprecedented hospitalizations. Japan declared a flu epidemic five weeks early, and similar patterns are emerging in the United States.Dr. Matthew explains why flu vaccination remains critical despite mutations, reducing hospitalizations by 30-40% in adults and 70-75% in children. The conversation shifts to RFK Jr's anti-vaccine policies at HHS, where he claims no vaccine is safe and effective despite having zero background in immunology or pediatrics. His appointment, along with Marty Makary at FDA and Jay Bhattacharya at NIH, represents a complete rejection of scientific reality in favor of political ideology.The discussion covers RFK Jr's role in 88 child deaths in Samoa from measles, his vitamin A recommendations causing liver damage in Texas children, and how VAERS data is being misrepresented. Dr. Matthew details the exodus of top scientists from NIH, cancelled research grants, and terminated clinical trials that will kill patients. Forever chemicals (PFAS) are being approved for pesticides while vaccine research funding gets slashed.America faces losing measles elimination status, rising preventable disease deaths, and compromised pandemic preparedness. The CDC's COVID vaccine guidance for pregnant women has been offline for months despite evidence linking infection to preterm births and neurological damage. This administration prioritizes grift over public health, with consequences spanning decades.
