<While activity for COVID-19 remains low in the United States, recent statistics released by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) show that infections are rising in parts of the country.
<The CDC said in a July 18 update that “COVID-19 activity is increasing in many Southeast, Southern, and West Coast states. COVID-19 levels are ranked as ”low,” the second-lowest level on the CDC’s scale, according to the update.
<Citing wastewater data for COVID-19, the agency said that positive tests are increasing around the United States, while emergency department visits appear to be increasing among children ages 0 to 4.
<Wastewater detections for COVID-19 updated by the CDC suggest that high levels of the virus are being reported in California, Florida, Hawaii, Louisiana, Nevada, South Carolina, and Texas. No states were experiencing very high levels, according to a map from the agency.
<Seasonal influenza activity is considered by the CDC to be low, and RSV activity is considered very low, the CDC said. Overall, U.S. respiratory illness activity, which refers to “how frequently a wide variety of respiratory symptoms and conditions are diagnosed by emergency department doctors,” remains very low.
>FDA Approved Moderna COVID Shot For Kids Behind Kennedy's Back - Two HHS Aides Fired

<The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) quietly granted full approval to Moderna’s mRNA COVID-19 injection for children while Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was on vacation - and without his knowledge or consent.
<As head of the department overseeing the FDA, Kennedy should have been directly informed of any decision involving pediatric mRNA shots—especially one as politically and medically sensitive as full approval for children as young as six months.
<On July 10, Moderna, Inc. announced the FDA approved the supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for Spikevax®, the Company’s COVID shot, in “children 6 months through 11 years of age who are at increased risk for COVID-19 disease.”
<The approval was made despite Moderna’s own scientists’ admission that there are “unacceptable toxicity” levels in mRNA vaccines, and that “lipid nanoparticle structural components, production methods, route of administration and proteins produced from complexed mRNAs all present toxicity concerns.”
<It was also made without Secretary Kennedy’s knowledge.
<According to multiple sources, neither Kennedy nor his Deputy Chief of Staff Stefanie Spears were briefed or consulted ahead of the decision, raising alarm over internal operations at one of the nation’s most powerful health agencies.
<Only July 16, White House correspondent and media host Emerald Robinson reported on Twitter/X that FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary “did not inform @RobertKennedyJr (who was on vacation) or his office that FDA was going to approve the mRNA shots for children,” citing sources familiar with the matter.
