Dr. Oz Gets Core Tenet Of Medicaid Wrong In Fox Interview

Oz ignorantDr. Mehmet Oz, the current Medicare and Medicaid Services administrator, doesn’t seem to know who actually relies on the programs he oversees.

In an interview with “Fox & Friends” Monday, Oz claimed the program was originally intended only to assist young children, the elderly and the disabled ― and that in the last few years it’s been gamed by “able-bodied” people who “just hang out” and watch television all day.

“When the program was created 60 years ago, it never dawned on anyone that you would take able-bodied individuals who could work ― and put them on Medicaid,” Oz claimed.

“Today, the average able-bodied person on Medicaid doesn’t work. They watch 6.1 hours of television or just hang out. That’s not fair. Go out and try to get a job.”

RFK Jr. and ice cream makers say they're churning up healthier ice cream

Dyes to be removedA group of ice cream makers that produce 90% of the nation’s ice cream and frozen dairy desserts are pledging to eliminate many artificial food dyes from their offerings by the end of 2027.

The announcement, less than a week before the National Ice Cream Day on July 20, was made by the International Dairy Foods Association, a trade group for dairy companies, in conjunction with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has championed the cause through his Make America Healthy Again platform.

Kennedy, who has long blamed chronic health problems, including obesity and heart disease, on the food industry, announced in April that eight artificial dyes will be phased out from medications and the nation's food supply by the end of 2026, including those found in candy, ice cream, soft drinks and jams.

The voluntary effort will eliminate the use of certified artificial colors Red 3, Red 40, Green 3, Blue 1, Blue 2, Yellow 5, and Yellow 6.

How Trump's tax bill could cut Medicaid for millions of Americans

Thealth insurancehe Senate cleared President Donald Trump's domestic spending and tax cut bill that will enact steep cuts to the nation's safety-net health insurance program for low income families.

In addition to delivering tax cuts and increasing immigration enforcement, what Trump has called the "Big Beautiful Bill" would cut nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid, the state-federal health program for low-income families and the disabled. The bill is projected to eliminate insurance coverage for 11.8 million people over the next decade, according to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.

Another 5 million could lose coverage if Congress doesn't extend the COVID-19 pandemic-era tax credits that have made Affordable Care Act plans more affordable for consumers.

The legislation amounts to "the biggest rollback in health care coverage in the history of the United States," said Joan Alker, a research professor and executive director and co-founder of Georgetown University's Center for Children and Families.

Supreme Court rejects censorship case from RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine group

RFK Jr.

The Supreme Court on June 30 declined to to hear a censorship complaint brought by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s former group against the owner of Facebook.

Children’s Health Defense, an anti-vaccine group founded by Kennedy before he joined President Donald Trump’s administration, argues its First Amendment rights were violated when Facebook restricted the group’s anti-vaccine posts.

Lower courts said Kennedy's group hadn’t shown that Facebook's parent company - Meta - was restricting the posts at the direction of the Biden administration. So they concluded Meta can’t be sued as a private business for restricting free speech.

As part of its "Vaccinate with Confidence" initiative, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention worked with social media companies "to promote trustworthy vaccine information."

But the California-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals concluded that the evidence showed Meta and the government were often at odds.

As new variant spreads, what's the latest COVID-19 vaccine guidance? It's complicated.

New vaiantAs a new COVID-19 variant takes over in the U.S., guidance surrounding vaccines has become increasingly confusing.

Changes in vaccination guidelines, ever-evolving variants and strains, along with threats to health insurance, have sent average Americans looking for the latest recommendations as members of the federal government often conflict with independent medical agencies and healthcare professionals.

In the two weeks leading up to June 21, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported just shy of 14,500 positive COVID tests, and while hospitalizations and deaths are fortunately down significantly since the pandemic's peak, vulnerable people are still grappling with limiting their risk amid changing practices.

RFK Jr. says U.S. will stop funding global vaccine group over 'vaccine safety' issues

RFK Jr.The international vaccine agency, Gavi, has strongly rejected HHS Secretary Kennedy's accusations that it was not following scientific data on vaccines, after he said the U.S. would halt all contributions unless the body made changes to its practices.

Kennedy remarks were made at a Gavi pledging summit in Brussels on Wednesday, where countries and philanthropies promise to deliver funds. A video of Kennedy's remarks, first reported by Politico and later posted by The New York Times, show him praising Gavi for its mission of making medicine affordable to everyone but then pivoting to criticisms. He says the group "ignores the science" when it comes to vaccine safety and calls on Gavi to "re-earn the public trust" before the U.S. would reconsider its decision to end U.S. contributions.

Supporters of global vaccines for children are on high alert after published remarks made by Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who said the U.S. would halt its contributions to Gavi, the international vaccine alliance.

Deadly listeria outbreak leads to recall of ready-to-eat fettuccine Alfredo meals

listeria outbreak

Some ready-to-eat chicken fettuccine Alfredo meals sold at Kroger and Walmart are being voluntarily recalled following a nationwide listeria outbreak linked to 17 illnesses and three deaths as well as one fetal loss.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service said it is investigating the outbreak of Listeria monocytogenes, which they say has been traced to products made by FreshRealm, Inc. under the Home Chef brand at Kroger and the Marketside brand at Walmart.

"FSIS is concerned that some products may be in consumers' refrigerators or freezers," the agency said in a statement. "Consumers who have purchased these products are urged not to consume them. These products should be thrown away or returned to the place of purchase."
