Whether or not to vaccinate children against measles by using the MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) shot was a debate in Washington Wednesday.Two of the nation’s leading health experts, who expressed confusion at the growing numbers of people choosing not to vaccinate against measles, testified before the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Nancy Messonnier believe a spread of misinformation among those pockets of people against vaccinating is the culprit. A common argument from anti-vaxx groups is that the vaccine can cause brain swelling in children. The two health officials clarified that in rare instances with underlying immune deficiencies, an MMR vaccine is not recommended. Dr. Messonnier says a doctor would be able to determine if a child fell into that category. Amid the national debate, a Texas state representative is now pushing for legislation that would allow more parents to opt out of vaccines, arguing to the Texas Observer that if a child gets measles, parents could simply use "antibiotics and that kind of stuff" to prevent deaths. There is currently no treatment for measles. 1144

A grower in California has set the state record in the state by growing a pumpkin that weighs 2,175 pounds, according to officials from the Safeway World Championship Pumpkin Weigh Off. The pumpkin was one of nine that weighed in over 1,000 pounds this week at the event in California. The pumpkin was also one of two that weighed more than 1 ton. The grower was Leonardo Urena of Napa. Urena cashed in a ,225 prize, and his pumpkin will be featured at this weekend's Half Moon Bay Art & Pumpkin Festival. This year's pumpkin tops last year's heaviest pumpkin, which weighed 2,170 pounds. The pumpkin nearly topped a gourd grown in New England, which weighed in at 2,294 pounds last week. 708

Vencer Cotton may not have his sight, but he does have his skills and tool to help him get though everyday life. “I started using a cane at 5 and started using braille a couple years later,” Cotton says. Now, thanks to technology, Cotton gets even more help, especially when it comes to shopping. Cotton uses the video call-based service called Be My Eyes, which uses a volunteer helper on the other end, to assist him in shopping for specific items. The help on the other end of the line helps Cotton navigate stores to find the items he needs. The app hosts a network of over a million volunteers in 150 countries. It’s used by more than 100,000 people living with blindness or visual impairment. It's free to sign up to be a helper, and it’s free for people, like Cotton, to use if they need visual help. “They're very helpful for identifying packages or items in your cabinet or expiration dates on perishables in your refrigerator,” Cotton says. Cotton uses the app at least twice a week to help him while he's on the go. Rather than asking someone at the store for help, Cotton says this makes him feel more independent. It also helps him connect with people in a beneficial way for all. “Technology can in fact bring us closer together, rather than making us be farther apart,” he says.There are other paid versions of apps with similar capabilities, but Be My Eyes is free! Volunteers are needed. If interested in signing up, visit 1456
