Meidas Health, Episode 7: Misinformation, MAHA, Measles, and the Future of Medicine (with Drs. Peter Hotez and Sapna Singh)

You want what's best for your kid, so do I. And I think we really fundamentally have to find a better way to communicate that. It may take multiple different facets of communication and many different platforms. And I think we're gonna have to move out of our comfort zone to do that. But I have a lot of hope.

Every time I have the interaction with a family, it just refreshes my faith in the fact that I'm here for this purpose. And yes, things are tough, but we are going to be able to do this because this is our calling. This is what we were called to do is take care of these children. So that keeps me hopeful and optimistic despite everything else that's out there.

I mean, I think accountability, I was raised in a household where the truth is the truth and the truth eventually reveals itself and it becomes obvious to everyone. I fear that we're going to have to suffer through more of the consequences before we get to a place where enough eyes are opened to what is happening. And at that point, the accountability will not have to come from our institutions.

I thought what you were telling me was true. And that does not work out because the truth, whether you want to cover it up or not,

preface it in some different way is the truth that is what it is and i think ultimately what will happen is public health being a victim of its own good work right we've spent years not seeing these diseases but imagine a polio case popping up in this country and we begin to see children paralyzed we begin to see children who can't breathe physically can't move their lungs anymore
