  I overheard a group of elderly women, who I happen to know all have underlying health issues, saying that the CDC said they don't need COVID vaccines anymore. This misinformation they are basing their health decisions on could be the difference between life and death for this at-risk age group.

The article from MassLive discusses the dangers of health and vaccine misinformation, particularly in Westfield, where false information has led to decreased vaccination rates and increased health risks. It highlights a recent measles outbreak linked to misinformation spread through social media and local community groups, emphasizing the importance of relying on credible sources like the CDC and local health departments. The piece also features insights from local health officials who stress the need for community education and awareness to combat the spread of false health claims, urging residents to get vaccinated and follow public health guidelines to protect themselves and others.
