In a controversial move, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has ended the military’s long-standing flu vaccine requirement, calling it an "overreaching mandate." But history shows the deadly risks of easing vaccination standards—Russia’s diphtheria outbreak (157,000 cases, 5,000 dead), Japan’s rubella resurgence (babies born blind and deaf), and Nigeria’s polio crisis (2,500 paralyzed children). Experts warn this decision could weaken US military readiness, echoing WWI when half of all war casualties were due to influenza.

Meanwhile, RFK Jr. faces backlash after spreading vaccine misinformation, with Sen. Warnock calling him "dangerous to the American public." And new data reveals COVID-19 vaccines cut ER visits and hospitalizations by half last winter—yet the CDC stays silent.
