Thanks to everyone who contacted their Rep in support of HB270! The bill has now passed the House and is being considered in the Senate. Reach out to your Senators and urge a “yes” vote. Find your Senator at le.utah.gov & scroll to “Find Your Legislator."

Utah ranks 49/50 for primary care providers. And it may get worse: studies show 11% of docs plan to retire or severely cut back workload in the next 2 years. Primary care also has the highest burnout (57% ). 📣 Urge legislators to continue to oppose cuts to Item #70 & #100!

Utah graduates about 320 medical students each year — and nearly one-fourth pursue family medicine. But every graduate must match into a 3-year residency program to practice independently, and Utah has limited spots.
Protect residency funding. Oppose cuts to Item #70 & #100.

UAFP has raised concerns following news that the AI prescribing system Doctronic is being piloted in Utah. UAFP warned that AI without human oversight poses real risks, and urged regulators to slow the pilot and require clinician involvement: utahafp.org/utah-academy-of-…

The AAFP rigorously reviews the science so we can support family physicians in protecting patients through safe, effective vaccination. You can count on the AAFP childhood immunization schedule: bit.ly/46HPsgq

The idea that our health care system was humming on all cylinders prior to 2010 is some wild revisionist history.

Vaccines do not cause autism. Neither does acetaminophen (Tylenol) use in pregnancy. Decades of rigorous science have disproven these myths. Spreading them puts public health at risk. The AAFP is committed to science and supporting families. Read our full statement here: bit.ly/48AlBZE

"Family physicians join individuals with autism and their families and caregivers in wanting to fully understand the causes of autism, why the prevalence of autism is increasing and how to support individuals with autism. Continuing to promote myths about a vaccine-autism or acetaminophen-autism distracts from research and resources that will benefit people living with autism."

Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., committed to protecting the nation’s scientific and public health infrastructure. Today, we are left with a damaged public health system and an immunization review process devoid of experts and evidence.
We are calling on the President to re-evaluate Secretary Kennedy’s ability to serve in his current capacity. We also urge Congress to consider all options available to them to address the leadership void at the HHS. bit.ly/41Lghyy

Grateful these governors are looking out for their citizens but this should not be partisan. Please @GovCox consider taking this action so all who CHOOSE to get the vaccine, can . Democratic governors build vaccine firewall against RFK Jr. politi.co/46cshKP via @politico
