Measles requires 95% vaccination rates for herd immunity.

It has a 16.2% case fatality rate for unvaccinated children under 5 years and 24% for children under 9 months (who are unable to be vaccinated).

30% of the survivors experience severe complications like blindness, deafness, or encephalitis.
These are the vaccination rates of kindergartners by state. It takes 95% coverage of MMR vaccine to prevent measles outbreaks & most states are not achieving it. I fear that under the new administration rates will drop even further and we will start to see preventable illness, disability, and death

We’re continuing the fight to protect overdose prevention funding!

Now is not the time to cut millions from the CA Overdose Prevention & Harm Reduction Initiative (COPHRI) as proposed in the Governor's #MayReivse.

Save COPHRI and save lives!

The Legislature and Governor must continue to invest in more access to services along the continuum of care and housing instead of funneling money to jails and courts to meet the demands of #drugwar era criminalization under #Prop36.

Our California state budget must prioritize #HealthNotHarm.

The #MayRevise fulfills a number of commitments, such as behavioral health workforce expansion through BH-CONNECT. This coupled with the release of #Prop1 funds will enhance access to behavioral health services, treatment, & housing. 🧵
