When will he learn he's not a doctor?
probably when he's not the fucking health secretary
Seriously. I have a pair of old boots in better shape than that man.
probably looks like ol leatherhead too
they won't and that will be the end of that genetic line
I love the way Kennedy suggests taking some ridiculous old wive's tale of a cure for measles "with doctors supervision." So you should listen to doctors when they advise you how to take a home remedy but absolutely don't listen to them when they suggest a medical remedy.
They are going to start taking Ivermectin soon to cure this.
I find the Ivermectin worship so weird. You've got MAGA's "I don't trust big pharma so I won't take their fancy pants medicines" but for this one drug, that's also manufactured by pharmaceutical companies suddenly they pivot to "Ivermectin is a panacea because Jesus personally blesses every molecule in the horse deworming paste I put on my toast."
I mean, I realize it's foolish to expect consistency from conservatives. But it's such a fundamental contradiction you'd think even they would notice.
There was an early covid study from Japan? That said they tried ivermectin and it improved outcomes. A lot of different things were being tried to see if anything worked, not just ivermectin. Vitamin C and D were on the list of cures, too, I believe. After others tried to replicate it, they realized it didnt really improve anything, but it was too late. Word on the street was already out. The ivermectin supporters took this as a sign they were repressing a easy to obtain, over the counter drug in favor of a microchip vaccine. Really, it fed into all the conspiracy theories and got warped into becoming a cure all.
That's the best summary of this wild weeks and months I've ever seen!
Ivermectin wasn't really over the counter, it was rx for humans. What magats were doing was buying animal ivermectin, horse and cow paste which has significantly higher doses of the drug, which is toxic to people
One faith healer gets a blind man to stand on their own and take a step and they're set for life with followers.
Fun fact you don't eat livers of bears, especially polar bear because they contain lethal amounts vitamin A for humans
If you put an onion cut in half in their casket they won’t get sicker.
Are they drinking bleach snd taking horse dewormer yet? Dumb fucks.
I take vitamins and other supplements, I think I’m pretty decently informed. At best it’s a preventative measure along with exercise, diet, and good sleep habits. You have to be a real moron to think that taking vitamins will “cure” a viral infection.
The people listening to him are the same people who took a fucking anti-parasitic drug to combat a viral infection. Honestly, Vitamin A is probably one of the less harmful things these fucks could OD their kids on.
Isn't vitamin A the one that killed that polar explorer?
Yes, dog liver contains way too much vitamin A.
Maybe. I thought it was K from a polar bear liver. Either way, fat soluble vitamins are the scary ones. As long as you don't take an immediately lethal or damaging dose of vitamin A, you have progressively worse symptoms that will show up before any permanent damage.
Vitamin A in large doses is not harmless. Those patients overdosed on it.

Old dumbass was probably given that back before there was a vaccine and thinks he came out just fine (give or take a few worms in the head) so why shouldn't it be good for everyone.
Measles exacerbates the symptoms of vitamin A deficiency, so in those specific cases, supplements can help. That basically never happens if you have a proper diet (even a Texas one).
Good thing they didn't put an anti-vax nutjob in charge of health
The medical misinformation led to the measles outbreak. It’s not in parallel, it’s in series.
The real great replacement theory: right-wingers not listening to the experts in their fields and doing dumb things that end up potentially harming themselves and/or their family members.
why do fascists always encourage people to get sick? like wtf is the benefit for them here.
Maybe instead of overdosing your child, get them vaccinated at a clinic with people who KNOW what they're doing. Good Lord.
No matter how long I live, I will never understand people who carry a child for 9 months, then decide to let that child take their chances on preventable illnesses.
I've been to a child's funeral, it is the MOST depressing and hopeless place to be. I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.
Lol.
These people believe dinosaur bones were put there by Satan to test their beliefs.
Practicing medicine without a license.
But what about BLEACH?!
Won't someone think of the bleach?
Maybe we can you know put a light inside the body and kill the virus that way. 🫲🍊🫱
LOL. Good job, dummies. (those poor kids though)
Those poor kids would otherwise grow up into the next generation of coal rolling, republican voting binfires. My sympathy is somewhat limited.
They write about US, and have some other countries ( definitly not US ) hospital photo as their cover?
If you read the caption on the photo it says that it is of a sign in German at a Texas children's hospital.

If one takes beta-carotene instead of vitamin a, an existing deficiency can be resolved without introducing any risk of reaching toxic levels.
Guess they don’t remember accutane. That’s a fun list of side effects right there.
