Joan is joined by Dr. Zachary Rubin, allergist/immunologist at Oak Brook Allergists, who discussed his efforts to disseminate reliable public health information on social media, the appointment of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to head the Department of Health & Human Services, the importance of staying updated on vaccinations due to ongoing outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases, and the potential health risks of drinking raw milk. He also advocated for healthy skepticism of online medical information and mental health breaks.
