RFK Jr cut half a billion dollars in research funding for mRNA vaccines. He & Marty Makary claim mRNA vaccines are “risky” so they’ll shift to “traditional, older” vaccine tech that’s “safer.” Guess what? We used to immunize people by blowing powdered smallpox scabs up their noses. 1/
It's not vague. They want poor Americans dead or so weak and frightened that they can't or wont fight back. This is not about science, it's about seizeing control.
Maybe we should just go back to using leeches on the sick. 🙄

I can’t wait to snort a line of Covid.
The first attempt at vaccination in the colonies was done by scraping people with a sharp object containing a bit of smallpox pus. An enslaved African named Onesimus in Boston told his owner, Cotton Mather, about it in 1716, a practice long performed in Africa. Onesimus later purchased his freedom.
Variolation, a practice also long performed in Asia and the Middle East, as well as Africa.
You and everyone else knows that mRNA would never have made it to human testing without a carefully manipulated crisis and heavily engineered trials on an unrealistic timeline. Stop pretending they were perfected under these circumstances. www.statnews.com/2017/01/10/m...
The issues described in the article you shared don’t pertain to mRNA vaccines. With vaccines, the lipid nanoparticles carrying mRNA are taken up locally by muscle at the injection site. Delivering mRNA systemically to organs like the liver is a completely different challenge.
The issues described pertain PRECISELY to mRNA vaccines. They were more correctly termed "mRNA therapy," before the 2020 rebrand Please feel free back up your assertion that lipid nanoparticles carrying mRNA are only taken up locally by muscle at the injection site and never make it to the blood.
Henry the 8th doctor; lay a piece of wool soaked in red wine and black pepper on the affected area.... RFK Jr would LOVE it.
I just hope developed countries start requesting proof of vaccination for US citizens. We don’t want stupid unvaccinated people to come and make us unsafe. If they have decided to get weeded out by natural selection, I’d rather they do that in their own country.
With these new rules that they also mixed with individual state rules some of us cannot get access to vax even with prescription like in state of Nevada…I am trying to figure out which state I could go to in order to get my vax ( 1 year short of 65 but underlying conditions). Hard on tiny pension
I’m sorry for you, and for the people who actually want to get vaccinated. But I still don’t want to see Americans being able to come to Europe or other developed countries without being vaccinated. Plus, if all countries start refusing unvaccinated people, maybe that’ll change things in the US…
Heroin is risky.
Grandpa needs his medicine and a nap.
We have to get RFK Jr out of our health !
Great ... cut at least a billion.
What's their next move, are we going to start putting leeches on people to bleed them, or cut people so they'd bleed the poison out of the system?
The Covid vaccine was developed under Trump with great fanfare by Trump. Why isn’t anyone asking Trump if he was wrong about the Covid vaccine in 2020, AND if he and his family plan on getting the vaccine this year?
RFK needs to slink back into the abyss and leave medicine to trained professionals. Why the H do Americans allow elected officials be in charge of our health in America? Are we the people this dumb to allow this to continue???
But were their worms in it? If so that may appeal to Pet Sematary JFK. www.pbs.org/newshour/amp...
The sequel, Bloodletting and Leeches for Dummies, by RFKjr will be out this fall.
Leeches aren't all bad. They still have medical uses. Bloodletting is definitely outdated.
Yes. I'm not sure about eye of newt though.
And mRNA vaccines don’t even put their genetic material in the nucleus of our cells. Only in the cytoplasm. mRNA vaccines are a modern medical miracle. Not something to be feared. Someday soon they’ll be used for targeted cancer therapy and other similar uses.
Are we going back to bloodletting, potions and exorcisms? Oh dear, I gave my rosaries away a long time ago. 😳

Try natural selection the people who are meant to survive whatever comes will

Leeches are still used - and very useful - in modern medicine 👍

The irony of someone in charge of health who looks and sounds very unhealthy
mRNA technology has been studied for over 40 years. It is conclusive it is too dangerous and deadly (as we have witnessed in the last 5 years) to be deployed on the populace. They are NOT vaccines, they are gene therapies. No one is going to blow cowpox scabs up anyone's noses. Jeez, get a grip.

We have forgotten what it's like to hold a child paralyzed with polio or comfort a mom who has lost her child from measles. It wasn’t that many generations ago. And I don‘t want to see us go backward. They protect children. They are our best defense against these terrible illnesses.
This is tRump’s and RFK, Jr’s world. 😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬 #StopTheCoup
Polio hit at adolescence. I remember the nightmares even we survivors had of our teenage bodies being suddenly twisted into a screw shape, paralyzed or encased for life in an iron lung. We had watched all those things happen to family or friends.
I have read about it and understand what people went through.
Use to bleed people out but I wouldn't recommend it
He doesn't think vaccines are risky. He and his kids are vaccinated. This is about eugenics and he thinks that only the strong will survive and their genes will dominate. He doesn't care who dies in the short-term. Restricting vaccines is just a eugenics shortcut. #evil
The irony is he thinks he is strong enough to survive from natural selection? I don’t think he is healthy enough. Does he have a death wish? I really don’t get it with these people.
These people view wealth as proof of merit. If they're rich and alive, they're worthy of as much medical treatment as they can buy.
I’m sure when he was mainlining heroin he had some Narcan nearby just in case he overdid it because his genes would not have saved him
e wasn't even strong enough to resist becoming a junkie, or "resist" brain worms. RFKjr is a "model" for health the way the Trabant is a model for performance cars. RFKjr does have a death wish... he wants millions of Americans to die.
He and Trump are exactly the same in the respect that malignant narcissists desire others' deaths above all else.
Exactly
I, for one, love the mrna vaxes. I'm allergic to eggs, so the traditional, older vaxes cured in eggs are a problem for me. Anyone claiming mrna vaxes are problematic in favor of older tech needs to understand this thing called PROGRESS. IT WORKS
And more than that, various organisms can be vaccinated against differently. For example, streptococcus pneumonia; that vax takes that bacteria’s greatest defense, it’s polysaccharide outer layer which makes it hard for our antibodies to detect it. Concentrates those down, add an allergen, and boom
An effective conjugate vaccine that protects for 25 strains currently, doesn’t need live bugs in it, just the dead polysaccharides and the allergen to help our antibodies learn that polysaccharides are a threat vector. This doesn’t work against COVID. But it does against that particular bacteria.
And we soon will again. Together with raw milk.
Oh...very good!
Dr. Love- I want to thank you for your ongoing attempts to educate and provide facts on vaccine efficacy, med hx, ID and the like. As this crank/quack RFKJr moves us increasingly toward medieval medicine/treatments, we need your skill & expertise to navigate through these dangerous times.
Is this older enough? Somebody show the idiot. The Long History of mRNA Vaccines | Johns Hopkins | Bloomberg School of Public Health share.google/XJEmofr4bmL8...
I’m sure they’re true. Problem is that you know a woman was doing a lot of the research on this. And you know, women
When we get the next pandemic and it has a high mortality rate, we’ll have the fast tracked mRNA one (developed of course by us - the ROTW) and MAGAts can wait… #NaturalSelection
The goal is monetized depopulation of the poor, by the rich. In the future, only the richest will be able to access vaccines. The rest of us will die prematurely & painfully. Gotta love capitalism!
I do not understand the end game here, or is he just insane
Guessing that he has a whole lot of "remedies" lined up that he wants to sell. Kind of like Dr Oz did on his TV show. Desperately sick ppl/ppl with sick kids, etc will shell out a lot of $$ for whatever is being touted/sold if that's all they can get their hands on.
And yeah, he's also insane.
RFK Jr. Should be sued...
Nah, just "vaccinate" him with medieval methods. Give him a taste of his own quackery.
Preferably with bubonic plague and leave him alone in a sealed room.
But, wait a minute, isn’t the measles vaccine… oh, never mind.
MMMMmmmmm scabs.
Thank you for mentioning the ways that mRNA may be used to treat some chronic conditions that so many people suffer from. RFK, Jr., must go. He isn't a scientist.
Wow! That's gangster!!

Millions of people here and around the globe were saved by the mRNA vaccines during Trump's Covid crisis.
Including TRUMP himself 😡👹
Bring out the leeches.
Let's try that one on RFK Jr first.
📌
He took hard drugs. One way or another it affects his brain. So there!
Trump and the Heritage Foundation have unleashed #SocialMurder upon the United States. GOP is 100% complicit and evil.
scab snooters
THAT — variolation — had a mortality rate of 3%. Better than the 30% smallpox itself had, but can you IMAGINE if any vaccine today had that risk? Yet RFK Jr. wants to pretend scientific progress is bad. 2/
He’s wrong. As usual. EVERY vaccine was new technology at one point in history. EVERYTHING was once new. That isn’t a reason to reject something. OLD doesn’t mean better. Newer vaccines replace older ones if they are safer, more rigorously manufactured, or more effective. 3/
Of course he is wrong. He never tried to be right. Goal of decoupling healthcare from facts leads to huge profits without research. Drug companies need not produce results, healthcare needs not save lives. Pure wealth extraction. Eventually, people simply die when no longer needed for labor.
"There are two kinds of fools in the world: One says, this is old and therefore good. The other says, this is new and therefore better." mRNA vaccines have HUGE promise. Certainly, COVID was an amazing success. It should continue to be researched and developed.
RFK Jr doesn’t want to protect health. He wants to demonize science that could cure and prevent infectious diseases, cancers, and even autoimmune disorders. 4/
He wants to implement eugenics by killing off the old, weak, and ill.
RFKraisin is as dangerous as any enemy we have ever had! Dump this expired slim jim. Very scary situation for the nations health! MAGA did this! Dump Trump! Defeat MAGA!
You don’t say to what end.
He wants #genocide and population reduction
He wants to make money off disinfo. That's all it's ever been. Follow the grift 💲💲💲
mRNA vaccines are safe, have been in development for decades, & have far broader applications than older vaccine technologies. New vaccine technologies evolve when scientists have tools & knowledge to make something more elegant or complex that wasn’t possible before. 5/
It’s the reason there are more vaccines today than in the 1960s. Scientific progress. If we froze vaccine science in the 18th century, we’d still be variolating kids with live smallpox. If we froze it in the 1950s, we’d shrug our shoulders at febrile seizures after DTP. 6/
If we freeze it now, we abandon future breakthroughs: cancer vaccines, universal flu shots, mRNA science able to combat the next pandemic in weeks versus years. RFK Jr & those that enable him are a threat to global health. Read more: news.immunologic.org/p/old-vaccin... 🧵

Thank you for your explanation. Unfortunately, on this platform, you are preaching to the choir.
Exactly, but how do we get this information out to the Neanderthal DNA carrying half of the country? How do we educate the ignorant? They rejected knowledge before in history and set mankind back a few centuries, and now they’re going to do it again.
70% of Americans believe in angels. 🙄 apnorc.org/projects/bel...
Not sure it's fair to blame neanderthals.
On a side note I just discovered some Neanderthals had Down’s Syndrome just like human populations. I tried but failed to imagine what a Neanderthal w/ Down’s would look like. Holy fuck
I know I’m grasping. The myth that Neanderthals were slower than homosapiens has been debunked. But I just can’t figure out why people revert to superstition and anti science, trying not to learn from history etc. I guess I was just hoping it was genetic and not learned behavior. What could it be?
Humans. Experts on conspiracy theories (broadly defined) disagree on the exact percentage, but they’re in agreement that an overwhelming majority of Americans, 2/3, 3/4, or more, believe in at least one common, well-debunked theory. And why shouldn’t they, most of the time? 1/
Most are mostly harmless, taken in moderation. While believing six impossible things before breakfast takes talent and practice, holding mutually contradictory beliefs is really common. It takes a lot of mental and emotional energy to chase down the paradoxes and resolve them. 2/
Realoty doesn’t make them feel special.
Mainly? They’re fucking idiots.
Why bashing Neanderthals? There is no justification for it. The thought that we were heinous, dense or primitive was based upon a Victorian sense of superiority rather than on any scientific proof.
Informing is not preaching. There are plenty here who need information to help with the talks they have with their friends.
Maybe he's being used as a useful idiot by the wealthy to cull the expense of the poor & average from the world the rich bought for themselves. Maybe a stooge being used to get a bunch of early returns to the earth to save social security from continued, further payout. We hear we can't afford them♾️

Looks right to me
In that clip, Trump sort of looks like a Deep One, perhaps a Deep Fried One.

We are dealing with witches, not scientists.
You’re not dealing with Witches either. The women they called Witches, centuries ago, were the ones who knew better than to believe God desired your suffering or that it was His will for slightly wounded soldiers to die from infections or women & children to die of things soap & water could prevent.
I had ancestors who were tried in Salem. Something about their red hair.
How interesting— I didn’t know hair color had anything to do with the hysterical accusations in Salem. Who were your Salem ancestors? In some English families, like my own, on my maternal grandmother’s side, family members with Magical abilities are said to have red hair and blue eyes.
That’s me. Blue-Green eyes and reddish hair. My mom, her sisters, and all going back to the 1600s. Browne was the name, I believe.
Before my hair turned white, I had red hair. My eyes are blue. In Salem, in 1692, William Brown(e) accused Susannah Martin of witchcraft because his wife, Elizabeth had been mentally ill for years & he blamed Susannah for it. As a result, Susannah was murdered. They called it tried & executed then.
Actually determining who is a witch or not is a tricky business. For whatever reason, my ancestors survived. Were they snitches? Or innocent? It’s been over 300 years. It’s hard to say.
And, of course, none of the people who were murdered at Salem in 1692 were Witches. 19 women were hanged and 1 man, Giles Corey, was pressed to death when they tried, unsuccessfully, to torture him into confessing. Several others died in jail awaiting “trial,” including a baby.
None of the people executed were named Brown (of either spelling). The only Brown directly involved in the Salem trials was Susannah Martin’s accuser, & he may or may not have been your ancestor. Who knows? As you say, after 333 years, it’s hard to tell who’s descended from whom.
Browne was my ancestor that arrived in 1621 at Plymouth to manage the Native American population for the colony. Presumably his grandchildren were the ones accused in Salem.
RFK jr isn’t using science or reason; he’s a mystic and con man, much like his boss. And he’s well on his way to destroying the public health infrastructure of the nation.
He’s certainly a con man, among other less savory things. But he’s no mystic.

That's next. I'm sure. The worm ate all his brain .. it's just empty space.
The covid vaccine has been given to how many people? Worldwide? Not just the pandemic but also includes afterwards? How would you design a clinical trial that could surpsss that level of human exposure for that length of time with statistical data that could break out cohorts?
Doesn't anyone remember horse serum? It just about killed my dad when he was a kid (early 40's) as he had an unknown horse allergy and went into anaphylactic shock.
What was horse serum for?
Did someone even develop a "traditional" covid vaccine? And tested it scientifically?
Pretty sure the AstraZeneca one was old school
Thanks. It is depressing how the mindless zombies rally against "unknown mrna side effects" where in the only case where both mrna and old school were side by side, the traditional was withdrawn due to side effect. Conspiracy theorists get dopamine high by imagining all the secrets they will reveal
Yes - I’ve heard psychologists say they address their feelings of inadequacy through promoting that “I know something you don’t know” trope…
Thing is, almost all medical interventions have side effects and/or risks - I just wish they’d be consistent and reject all medical care…
And the other thing, with respect to vaccines, is that getting sick may incur long lasting side effects. Although the zombies now say "traditional vaccine", once they defund the only existing vaccine, it means "no vaccine".
Exactly-I’ve explained to a lot of people that if a vaccine causes side effects, it’s usually true that the virus can too -at higher frequency. On the other hand I’ve also urged people to keep COVID in perspective- many diseases can have long term effects it’s just that we know so much about COVIDs’
Loved this video about "the science of revenge". It effectively defines "revenge junkys". I believe that conspiracy theorists have lots in common. youtu.be/rynDGf9TZKQ?...
