?? Measles outbreak in West Texas and New Mexico: Vaccination rates are declining, and the consequences are deadly. Two lives have already been lost in this outbreak, and the spread continues. This serves as a reminder of how crucial vaccines are to protect us from this highly contagious disease. Glenn Fennelly, Board President of Doctors of the World, warns: “The measles virus is strongly immunosuppressive, meaning that it will interfere with the normal function of many white cells in the body that fight against other infections.” Vaccination remains our most effective defense against measles. It is essential that we rely on accurate information and public health measures to prevent further harm. #MeaslesOutbreak #VaccinesSaveLives #PublicHealth #DoctorsOfTheWorld https://lnkd.in/euGNVnGC

In less than three month's time, the Trump-Vance administration will take office, and with #Project2025 as its policy blueprint, the effects on the people and issues we support and champion both here and around the world will be devastating and far-reaching. There is no other way to describe it. Women's access to safe and legal #abortion in the US, the rights of asylum seekers and the access to health that we provide at the southern border, people trapped in conflict in the middle east, #Ukraine and elsewhere, are all under dire threat. At Doctors of the World, we can promise you that we will always remain true to our core values and principles, and that we will fight for these and the people we serve no matter how bad the political and policy climate may be. Our strength is in our solidarity, and now more than ever we must stand together to care for and support each other, and for the most vulnerable among us. Our path is and has always been the morally correct one. When we look back on the era we are about to enter, we know we will stand on the right side of history. Join us: https://lnkd.in/ehiQkueU
