One of the most widely known risks linked to the COVID-19 vaccine is myocarditis, especially in young males — and now a new Stanford study has shed some light on why this rare effect can occur. Myocarditis, which is inflammation of the heart, occurs in about one in 140,000 people who receive the first dose of the vaccine and one in 32,000 after the second dose, according to a Stanford press release. Among males 30 and younger , that rises to one in 16,750. Symptoms of the co

Medical victim Chloe Cole was at the center of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Thursday announcement of proposed regulatory actions to end "sex-rejecting procedures" on minors. The proposed regulatory actions by the HHS are part of President Donald Trump 's January executive order calling on the department to protect children from "chemical and surgical mutilation." The department is rolling out a series of policy updates and regulatory actions that would ef

Honoring America's veterans means more than reflecting on their service now and then. It means supporting those still fighting battles that are largely unseen by others.  Advocates are spotlighting a nationwide effort to end veteran suicide. The effort is 24/7.  The Ad Council and the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) are partnering on a campaign called "Don’t Wait. Reach Out." It encourages veterans to seek help and connect with the resources they deserve. The campaign str

Oprah Winfrey is shining a light on family estrangement, which she calls "one of the fastest-growing cultural shifts of our time" — but one expert says the media mogul helped fuel that very culture. "A Cornell University study now shows that almost one-third of Americans are actively estranged from a family member," Winfrey said on a recent episode of "The Oprah Podcast," referring to adult children going "no-contact" with parents, siblings or entire family systems. Winfrey s

Ivanka Trump, daughter of President Donald Trump, has been hitting the water for a workout. The 44-year-old mother of three has been open about her active lifestyle, which has included resistance training, racquet sports and jiu-jitsu lessons for the whole family, as Fox News Digital has reported. Recently, Trump has been spotted paddleboarding in her home state of Florida. She was photographed on the water in a black athletic mini-dress with matching visor and sunglasses on

Maintaining good health and longevity sometimes takes more than medicine, according to Dr. Marc Siegel. In his new book, "The Miracles Among Us," the Fox News senior medical analyst shares miraculous stories of healing and life-saving moments that exceed the bounds of medical intervention. "The book is amazing because it tells itself," he said. "The stories aren't mine; the stories are real. And what's interesting about them is that they are compilations that lead up to mirac

More data is emerging supporting a sharp decline in the number of young adults identifying as transgender or non-binary. Last week, Fox News Digital reported on data shared by Eric Kaufman , a professor of politics at the University of Buckingham, showing that the share of college students identifying as anything other than male or female has been cut in half in just two years. Now, Jean Twenge, professor of psychology at San Diego State University, has identified additional

A West Virginia judge ruled on Wednesday that parents can use religious beliefs to opt out of school vaccine requirements for their children. Raleigh County Circuit Judge Michael Froble on Wednesday issued a permanent injunction, saying children of families who object to the state's compulsory vaccination law on religious grounds will be permitted to attend school and participate in extracurricular sports. Froble found that a state policy prohibiting parents from seeking reli

Two large studies have put a spotlight on potential health risks of the COVID vaccine — but some experts urge caution when interpreting the findings. Recent research has linked the vaccine to a higher risk of kidney injury, as well as certain respiratory infections. A Korean study published in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases looked at how infectious diseases changed during and after the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the impact of vaccines. "While influenza-li

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its website with a new stance on the potential link between vaccines and autism. The new wording on the CDC’s site now states, "The claim 'vaccines do not cause autism' is not an evidence-based claim because studies have not ruled out the possibility that infant vaccines cause autism." It also adds, "Studies supporting a link have been ignored by health authorities." The agency noted that the statement "vaccines do no

Government agencies will soon begin scrubbing federal employees’ COVID-19 vaccination records from their personnel files after a four-year-long legal battle over former President Joe Biden’s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. Feds For Freedom announced Wednesday that it had reached a settlement with the Department of Justice (DOJ) that requires the Office of Personnel Management to direct federal agencies to expunge personnel records related to the COVID-19 vaccine mandate, including

President Donald Trump will sign an executive order Monday to reinstate service members who were canned from the military for refusing the COVID-19 vaccination. Service members, whether active or reserve, will be restored to their prior rank, receiving full back pay and benefits, according to a fact sheet provided to the Daily Caller News Foundation. Former Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin discharged over 8,000 members for refusing the vaccination, and only 43 returned to servi

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced plans Tuesday to cancel $500 million in vaccine development projects. In a statement from his office, the longtime vaccine critic said all projects to be halted use mRNA technology. “After reviewing the science and consulting top experts at NIH and FDA, HHS has determined that mRNA technology poses more risk than benefits for these respiratory viruses,” Kennedy said in a video posted on social platform X, referring to Covid-19

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Florida plans to become the first state to eliminate vaccine mandates, a longtime cornerstone of public health policy for keeping schoolchildren and adults safe from infectious diseases. State Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo, who announced the decision Wednesday, cast current requirements in schools and elsewhere as “immoral” intrusions on people’s rights that hamper parents’ ability to make health decisions for their children. “People have a rig

A freshman Idaho lawmaker wants to ban most COVID-19 shots for the next decade, with a bill rooted in misconceptions about vaccines that thrived during the pandemic. The bill from Sen. Brandon Shippy, R-New Plymouth, would place a moratorium on “human gene therapy products” until July 2035. The bill defines those as products that include nucleic acids, “genetically modified microorganisms” and other “engineered site-specific nucleases.” The bill seeks to ban most forms of gen

A quiet rebellion among Republicans representing working-class and low-income areas against President Donald Trump’s legislative agenda has picked up some powerful new allies: US hospitals and conservative agitator Steve Bannon.  The party’s leaders have worked to placate budget hawks and Republicans in high-tax and high-income areas who have dominated the GOP debate over the extension of Trump’s 2017 tax cuts and the corresponding cost-cutting crusade led by billionaire Elon

The federal government may continue to enforce the Affordable Care Act’s preventive-care mandates, thanks to the Supreme Court’s recent decision in Kennedy v. Braidwood Management . In a 6-3 bipartisan opinion written by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, SCOTUS rejected constitutional challenges brought by a Texas business and others to the structure of a federal health task force that, as SCOTUS put it, issues “preventive-service recommendations of critical importance to patients, do

WASHINGTON, D.C. – In case you missed it, Breitbart recently featured Congressman Brett Guthrie (KY-02), Chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Congressman Morgan Griffith (VA-09), Chairman of the Subcommittee on Health, who shared ways in which Republicans have already voted to lower health care premiums that Democrats opposed in the Working Families Tax Cuts. In Case You Missed It: “House Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Brett Guthrie (R-KY) and

Researchers racing to develop bird flu vaccines for humans have turned to a cutting-edge technology that enabled the rapid development of lifesaving covid shots. This story also ran on ABC News . It can be republished for free . There’s a catch: The mRNA technology faces growing doubts among Republicans, including people around President Donald Trump. Legislation aimed to ban or limit mRNA vaccines was introduced this year by GOP lawmakers in at least seven states. In some c

A legislative package that could end the weekslong government shutdown leaves out any clear resolution on the expiring Affordable Care Act tax credits that have made private health insurance less costly for millions
