“And so, I am putting America’s best homeopaths and aromatherapists on the case”
Instead of sending us all COVID tests, they'll send us a pack of healing crystals this time.
Space-X© healing crystals, provided for free but at an acquisition cost to the US government of $37 per crystal.
Just attended a vendor event with a bunch of vaguely witchy stuff, including lots of tarot and crystals. I assure you 37 bucks would be a steal.
And they won't come pre-charged.
New emergency number: dial 711, and the homeopath-helicopter will be dispatched to your location to administer emergency foot zone therapy and essential oils.
Dispatched spiritually. Much faster and the angels don't cost our government a dime! Check mate socialists!
The government will be handing out free healing crystals starting tomorrow.
Dead kids changing a Republican's behavior on a politicized issue???
Cool, now do guns.
Must have realized it was a white kid who died.
There is big heat on Kennedy because a Mennonite no vax child died of measles. There hasn't been a death in 20 years so its a big deal because kids shouldnt be dying of Measles in 2025. Vax up people or its going to be diseasey soon. Keep the herd healthy because we are all in this world closely together.
With Nazis running the show I don't think giving them a monopoly on force is a good idea.
If you think the type of arms you can get your hands on will help one iota you are gravely mistaken
Should the people ever need to fight the government of the US there are only two things that will matter:
How much of the military joins which side
Which nations supply each side with arms
Either the people get some of the military on their side (along with the planes, tanks, drones, etc they bring along) and are propped up by foreign interests, or the military steamrolls any resistance.
This has been true in every major conflict in the last several decades. You either have the support of military assets and foreign governments or you lose.
If it comes to that, at least I can take as many of them with me as I can lmao
We are sending 2000 gun shot vaccines! Lol
That's weird, why would he send vaccines? Those have 5g signal receivers in it for mind control. Is he stupid?
and the cultists will say "SEE HE'S DOING SOMETHING HE SUPPORTS VACCINES!!!!!eleven!!!!", the media will praise the administration for this action, and the smart ones will point out that 2000 vaccine doses for a measles outbreak is a pathetically small number that might stem the tide a bit at best. this entire response has been an absolute clusterfuck and our spineless media won't call it out for fear of retaliation.
2000 doses is enough to vaccinate 1000 individuals. He's sending enough to vaccinate a single neighborhood. This is almost medically meaningless. It's only for show and does not cover the situation or care for any individuals at length.
It does however expose that he does believe in vaccines to some degree and that jfk jr doesn't actually believe his own bullshit in an emergency.
would send Texas 2,000 doses
Yeah, that actually sounds reasonable for a small localized outbreak when most are already vaccinated...
A total of 164 measles cases were reported as of 27 February across Alaska, California, Georgia, Kentucky, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York City, Rhode Island and Texas, information from the CDC showed. About 95% of those infected were unvaccinated people, including children whose parents did not follow CDC recommendations to get them immunized with safe, effective vaccines providing protection against measles as well as other easily preventable diseases. Another 3% were from people who received only one of the two required shots for immunity, CDC data showed on Friday.
These cases were reported in nine jurisdictions, including Kentucky, marking a near 80% jump from 93 cases reported a week ago.
Too bad it's fucking everywhere and spreading insanely quickly...
2000 is laughable. And they're having "measles" parties? lol gl!
You don’t need measles parties. The virus is so contagious you more or less can get it by looking at an infected person if you are not already immune.
remember back in elementary school and you thought $100 was a lot of money but when you got older you realized that $100 wasn't a whole lot? I see the same thing here, except that those people who think that's a lot of doses for this situation probably have a 7th or 8th grade understanding of, well, everything but they're older than 50.
there needs to be at a minimum 500,000 doses for west texas.
Unfortunately, I suspect we're in the incubation phase of a likely superspreader event (the contagious kid who spent time in crowded college areas, two weeks before (a) symptoms appear and (b) one of those colleges goes on spring break).
I'm betting that, of the hundreds of people exposed and the couple dozen people who probably caught it, at least some of them will go on spring break, and infect other spring breakers who will then bring it home to their colleges. It'll have a couple months to spread there, then some of them will bring it home for the summer.
It sure would've been nice if we'd had politicians who were actually both sane and foresightful .... :(
After that he can tackle the weasel outbreak in the white house.
ignore reality all you want, it won't go away
Can confirm, have tried.
His brain worms is controlling his speech
Bird flu in the corner, gleefully rubbing its hands. Soon I will get the spotlight.
They have found bird flu in rats now
The immunity rate if fully vaccinated is 97%, but that still means 3% of people that did the right thing could die because of shithead conspiracy theorists like RFK Jr. Heard immunity only works if everyone that can does the right thing. We learned with COVID that many people would rather turn to conspiracy theories then science if it means they get a feeling of belonging to a group, even if that group is a cult.
I have a suggestion: since the vaccine is not safe, why don’t we do a lockdown? /s
"I sent vaccines to the antivaxxers, this is a great idea that will surely resolve the issue."
Guy needs a new brainworm to pilot him cuz that move is stupid as fuck.
I assume that an adult finally sat him down and explained how bad the situation is in simple kid friendly terms.
A good predictor of when they'll walk something back is if whatever it is is stupid/evil enough to also screw over the very wealthy. Measles well and truly coming back would fit the bill.
He's sending supplies of oil of oregano and industrial bleach.
standing on uncovered shit spigot while shit sprays in face and mouth at high pressure
"Hmmm maybe I'll consider putting the spigot back on. Gotta contain the shit y'know"
