A document the Department of Health and Human Services sent to lawmakers to support Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s decision to change U.S. policy on covid vaccines cites scientific studies that are unpublished or under dispute and mischaracterizes others.
One health expert called the document “willful medical disinformation” about the safety of covid vaccines for children and pregnant women.
“It is so far out of left field that I find it insulting to our members of Congress that they would actually give them something like this. Congress members are relying on these agencies to provide them with valid information, and it’s just not there,” said Mark Turrentine, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Baylor College of Medicine.
The justification doesn’t matter, the agenda’s supporting documents are project 2025.
And just to drive home how little scientific citations mean to them, these are people who deny climate science not because they think it’s not true, but because they think it’s their god’s judgement and that we mustn’t fight it since it means Jesus will return to rapture the worthy.
They’re salivating at the prospect of the rest of us burning whilst they sip mimosas in heaven.
But but… RFK Jr swore during his confirmation hearing that he wouldn’t just do antivaxx shit! Are you saying he lied???
He is a Kennedy
Kennedy should give himself a big old shot of bleach. Trumps swears by it!
Hmm… if they cause a labor surplus in the scientific community, what could they stand to benefit from with a bunch of desperate academics looking for work.
the only result I see is a bunch of pissed off, highly educated, tech-savvy dissidents
Or a bunch of desperate people willing to accept unethical work
