Abdul unpacks the week in public health, which includes:

• Vinay Prasad’s exit from FDA
• Susan Monarez’s confirmation to lead CDC
• New childhood vaccination data
• The EPA’s move to rollback the endangerment finding
• Why more experts have been ousted from ACIP

Then Abdul interviews professor Dr. Brian Willoughby about his research on porn use among young people, and what parents should know about modern porn content.

Note: We recorded this episode before RFK Jr announced the cancellation of $500 million in funding for mRNA vaccine development. However, Abdul and Katelyn discussed the threat of mRNA research cuts in our May 7 and June 3 episodes. (their May convo begins at 00:11:00 / their June convo begins at 00:16:00)
