"Certainly, good nutrition can promote a healthy immune system, and it's a good idea for everyone to try to maintain good nutrition, but it's certainly not a substitute for vaccination," Dr. Scott Weaver tells ABC News. The U.S. measles outbreak continues to grow even as some tout unproven remedies such as vitamin A and cod liver oil.

Not only does Vitamin A not provide protection against measles, but getting measles in the hopes of strengthening your immune system does not work either, Dr. Scott Weaver tells ScienceNews. “It actually interferes with your immune system in the short run,” Weaver said. “If you’re infected by a [measles] virus without being vaccinated, the infection suppresses your immune response for typically a few months to a few years, and that can lead to you being more vulnerable to secondary infections.”

UTMB’s Dr. Marcela Navarro spoke to Parents.com about what parents should look for when picking out a stroller wagon.

Dr. Scott Weaver also spoke the Dallas Morning News about the West Texas measles outbreak. “What’s particularly bad about the measles virus is that it damages or destroys a lot of our immune cells that maintain our immune memory,” Weaver said.

"I'm concerned that people think that vitamin A or other nutrition is a substitute for vaccination to prevent infection and to prevent spread," UTMB’s Dr. Scott Weaver tells NPR. Two people have died in the West Texas/New Mexico measles outbreak and infectious disease doctors are worried about the spread of misinformation on online and from the federal government, NPR reports.

The Daily News shared a story on UTMB’s recently announced collaboration with Nipoka, a German-based imaging and diagnostic company, that could transform how kidney patients are diagnosed, treated and monitored.

UTMB’s Dr. Agenor Limon was one of the experts consulted by Prevention for this story on brain development. “We may not learn as easily as we did when we were kids, but we can still learn,” says Limon.

“If you don't have a good mitigation strategy today, you're dead in the water," says Ejay Birkmeyer, assistant vice president of revenue cycle operations at UTMB, tells healthleaders for this story on HIPPA regulations and cyber security.
