- Seth Rogen is unlikely to return as a presenter at the Breakthrough Prize after criticizing President Trump.
- His remark about Trump's impact on American science was edited out of the event's livestream.
- The comments were made in front of co-founders Mark Zuckerberg, Yuri Milner, and Sergey Brin, who appeared uncomfortable.
- Rogen has a history of having off-the-cuff remarks edited during awards shows.
It’s amazing that others in this room underwrote electing a man who, in the last week, single-handedly destroyed all of American science.— Seth Rogen during the Breakthrough Prize ceremony, pointing out the irony that tech magnates supported Trump.

Key FactsMeasles Could Become Endemic: New Research Insights

- A study from Stanford indicates that measles could become endemic in the U.S. within the next two decades due to declining vaccination rates.
- Currently, the MMR vaccination rate is around 93%; a 10% decrease could lead to over 11 million cases of measles.
- Increasing vaccination rates by even a small margin could significantly reduce the likelihood of disease resurgence.
- Understanding vaccination status is crucial for protecting individual and public health.
It's empowering that a small segment of the population can make a difference here.— Nathan Lo, MD, PhD, an assistant professor of infectious diseases at Stanford University, said in a news release.
