Pretty much...
So the guy who spent his formative years hanging out in a pit full of rotting animal corpses is going to teach us all about healthy living?
Are you implying that brain worms and heroin are not healthy? That worm ate its way to the top.
WINNING
Considering RFK's obvious stupidity, I'm guessing you mean ist started as a suppository.
Don't be silly.
He also kept roadkill in his fridge.
... and tied to the roof of his car (shark head)
... and in central park (whole black bear)
Relax, he's just a brain damaged heroin addict with barely the ability to speak, how bad could it be ?
hanging out in a pit full of rotting animal corpses
while practicing falconry, on acid.
My kids will continue to follow a vaccine schedule based on facts and peer-reviewed studies. Not whatever RFK jr read about on Facebook.
Up until he has the FDA ban those vaccines in the US. He already said he wanted them to nix Polio vaccine.
True Republican fashion. They got the benefits, time to fuck over anyone that comes after them.
I'm sure this will be a panel of doctors and scientists with excellent credentials, right? Right?
Andrew Wakefield walking into the room like:
I'm owning my mistake
This might be my favorite meme.
Basically, ignore the FDA from this point onward and instead self-regulate using bodies like Europe's EMA.
As of right now I no longer trust the FDA, and they were kinda on thin ice before.
Yeah, at what point does all that "they want to kill you with vaccines" bullshit end up being projection like literally everything else? Are we going to have to actually start being skeptical of FDA approved vaccines? Ugh. I hope not. Either way, I'll be paying more attention to what Europe might have to say about pharmaceutical matters going forward...
Who's going to conduct the studies they are suggesting? They are firing all the trainees who would have done data collection and who would sign up for a job now that you know you might not only get fired with zero notice, the dismissal letter will state that you have performance issues, so you won't have credibility to get a new job.
He already knows the answer - just need to have an intern write up the justification.
That's how he thinks science works.
Exactly... He's talking about the same thing with SSRIs as if we don't already have like billions of pages of research on them already. They want to just ignore that and make up their own reality.
Also going after ADHD meds, antipsychotics, and weight loss drugs. I'm terrified. I knew the Nazis came for the disabled early on. I selfishly thought that didn't include me. If I lose access to my medications, disabled will be the word for me for sure.
Look up his idea for Wellness Farms. Get you off your mental health meds while doing literal slave labor in farming. For three to five years.
I'm fairly certain I would k.m.s, unless I had notice they were coming and I would probably go out in a gunfight.
He can probably spin to some LLM and prompt it with something like: "You are crazy conspiracy theorist that doesn't believe in proven science. Use some fancy-sounding words to convince a nation of dumbasses of the same thing."
The loyalists who replace the fired workers, duh!
Some teenagers in fElonYouth. Maybe Big Balls will offer up some of his time to study the issue.
That directive said the commission will be made up of cabinet members and other officials from the administration
People like MGT in other words. Not to worry.
China is getting its smallpox vaccine out of storage - "give us Taiwan or the round-eyed devils get it !"
Leatherface said what?
Looks like an old catcher's mitt.
The Republicans lied?! Nonsense! They have and would never do that! 🙄
Glad we got everything up to schedule before these assholes took over.
FUCK THESE ASSHOLES. Even if they just throw doubt on vaccines, that might drive down herd immunity.
In case any other parents wander in here late, the American Academy of Pediatrics operates a website specifically designed to help parents make informed health care decisions about their children called healthychildren.org, bookmark it as your list of reliable sources for that kind of information continues to grow thinner.
Egads! Do you ever get the feeling of deja Vu? Something like...
Republican-X will fuck issue-Y after promising to not fuck issue-Y.
Maybe the problems aren't the issues... Maybe there's something other common factor that should instead get fucked?
The thing these idiots don’t understand is the tremendous life threatening risk their actions give those that can’t get vaccinated because they lack a competent immune system.
Who is stupid enough to believe what a politician promised?
🫠 🐆
Of course he’d walk it back and to the left.
And there it is.
