## Resource

Measles cases in the U.S. hit a 35-year high, with Florida seeing a shocking surge—from 7 last year to 141 this year. The state’s Surgeon General, Dr. Joseph Ladapo, acknowledged the vaccine’s effectiveness but avoided urging vaccination, even referencing its historical cell-line origins and linking it to unvaccinated students. Experts like the American Academy of Pediatrics clarify that no fetal tissue is used in modern vaccines, debunking claims that they contain fetal cells. With 155 cases statewide—including in Orange and Osceola counties—the conversation remains fraught, even as data shows a troubling uptick in preventable disease.
