• 0:05
  Speaker 1: President Trump is putting the number of vaccines recommended for
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: children effective immediately.
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: My administration is recognizing gold standard childhood vaccine recommendations for
• 0:16
  Speaker 2: only eleven core vaccinations.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: And a twenty nine year old mother of four is
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: found hanging from a tree in Mississippi.
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: Hangings in the world of Mississippi. Where you think m
• 0:28
  Speaker 3: matillate others is just it's a.
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: Bad word, and check your fridge. Taylor Farms is recalling
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: salsa guacamole in dips so that some of the country's
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: biggest grocery stores. A lot of the fallout that we're
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: seeing now in terms of additional recalls are from things
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: that could have been made with contaminated Jalapanias. It's Tuesday,
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: August eleventh, from the Black Effects Podcast Network. I Memi Brown.
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: This is front page and here are the day's biggest stories.
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Stay with me. President Trump signed a new executive order
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: on Monday making major changes to the new federal childhood
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: vaccine schedule. The biggest change the federal government will now
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: routinely recommend vaccines covering eleven diseases instead of eighteen. That
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: includes vaccines for measles, mumps, rubella, polio, chicken pox and HPV.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: Other vaccines including hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and COVID nineteen
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: are all being moved into different categories. Some would be
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: recommended for children considered at higher risk, others would become
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: a decision between parents and their child's doctors. Trump says
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: the changes give parents more choices, but during the announcement
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: he again raised concerns about the number of vaccines children
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: receive and suggested vaccines could be connected to autism. There
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: is no credible scientific evidence showing vaccines cause autism.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Effective immediately, my administrations recognizing gold standard childhood vaccine recommendations
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: for only eleven core vaccinations against the most serious and
• 2:06
  Speaker 2: dangerous diseases, along with the MMR, which hopefully will be
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: split up. You have the MMR we wanted in three
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: separate vaccinations given at separate times. Together there could be
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: a possibility they're quite lethal, and separately, it looks like
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: they are not at all lethal, but just very effective.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: At one year, you should have five separate visits for
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: vaccines rather than getting them all in the same day.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: And I saw this early on, and I've seen proof
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: of it where they have a vaccination that looks like
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: the size of a bottle of soda poured into a
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: little child's body, and bad things happen in many cases,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: in too many cases, because this is an explosion, this
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: is an epidemic.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: And one important point for parents, this does not automatically
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: change your child's school vaccine requirements. Those requirements are largely
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: set by individual states. And now to Mississippi, where the
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: family of a twenty nine year old mother found hanging
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: from a tree says they do not believe she took
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: her own life. Taja Fortune was a mother of four.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Her body was discovered August third, behind an abandoned home
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: in Jackson, Mississippi. Her mother says she had seen Tasa
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: just days earlier at a family reunion and says her
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: daughter appeared to be happy and at peace. Now she's
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: publicly rejecting the idea that Taja died by suicide. Police
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: have not announced a cause or manner of death, and
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the Mississippi State Examiner's Office is conducting an autopsy, and
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: the Jackson Police say this remains an active death investigation.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: Police have interviewed a man who lives where Fortune was found.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: He acknowledges arguing with her but denied having anything to
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: do with her death. He has since been charged on
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: a separate go charge, but he has not been charged
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: in connection with Fortune's death. Jackson County Councilman Kenney Stokes
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: says he is now asking federal authorities to assist in
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: the investigation.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: We send a letter to the US Attorney's off passion
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: for help to make sure we catch and convict the
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: person a person involved with hangings a young lady and
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: Jack Waissippy hangings in the world of Mississippi, where you
• 4:34
  Speaker 3: think of m matilling others is just it's a bad word,
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: So shouldn't that somebody should say something.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: Fortune's death has also drawn attention because of Mississippi's history
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of racial terror lunchings, and because other people have been
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: found hanging from trees in the state within the past year.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: But Fortune's family has said they do not believe her
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: death was racially motivated. Right now, how up into Tasia
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: remains under investigation. And lastly, check your refrigerator. Taylor Farms
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: is recalling more than a dozen prepared foods containing halapinos
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: because they could be contaminated with salmonella. We're talking about
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: salsa guacamole, dips, and other prepared foods sold at major
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: grocery stores. The products were sold under several different brand
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: names as stores including Trader Joe's, Walmart, Target, and other retailers.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: The problem started with halapinos supplied to tailor farms by
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: cot Citrus distributors. Taylor Farm said it issued the recall
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: after learning those halapinos could be contaminated with salmonella. And
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: this comes just weeks after Taylor Farm's lettuce was linked
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: to the massive cyclosphoria outbreak we've been following. So if
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: you recently bought fresh salsa, guacamole, or prepared dip, don't
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: just look for the tailor farm's name, check the product
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: label and recall information because some of these foods were
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: sold under different store brands. Salmonella can cause diarrhea, fever,
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: summit cramps. Younger children, older adults, and people with weakened
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: immune systems can become very seriously ill. Taylor Farm says
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: the company is no longer sourcing jalapenos from the farmer involved.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: And again, if you've got salsa, guac, or dip in
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: the refrigerator, check the label before you eat it. That's
• 6:24
