President-elect Donald Trump has praised the polio vaccine as the “greatest thing,” but a lawyer affiliated with Trump’s pick to lead the country’s top heath agency has petitioned the US Food and Drug Administration to revoke approval of the vaccine used in the United States.
From the IV heroin addict? Smart.
He a damn total nutjob who is going to end up killing people! Why is our government not ending this nightmare?
Another reason to distrust CNN, NYTimes, etc. The implication is that this is a recent event, when that petition was filed in 2022. The man's history is relevant, but you know damn well this is clickbait.
No there’s no ‘implication’, the article clearly states it was filed in 2022 and the review is underway with no decision made as yet. In any event it’s immaterial when it was filed, it’s the fact Siri works closely with Kennedy on vaccine misinformation.
I don’t know anyone who has/had polio thanks to vaccines in my lifetime.
Don't watch what they say....watch what they do..!!!!
Trump creates chaos wherever he goes. America has failed to learn that lesson.
Revoking any vaccine could cause a pandemic, especially those who refuse to get vaccinated. The only reason COVID is under control is enough people got vaccinated. That bro g said around 1.2 million people died of covid in the USA.
This is completely normal🙄. Someone inform them that if your kid gets polio it’s a death sentence
My money says trump will fold like a lawn chair if encouraged to support Kennedy’s position.
So, a lawyer wants to ban the polio vaccine in the US because he secretly went to medical school and became an immunologist specializing in contagious diseases and wants to grow his practice. Or, he’s a conspiracy theorist who spent too many hours with RFK Jr.
This is so wrong! polio was the most frightening disease parents faced in the early 1900’s. We can’t go back because some nut job feels it is bad!
WTF?
Maybe the guy wants to boost the iron lung industry.
Another classic case of the left hand not talking to the right hand.
Absolutely absurd that one would want to do away with a vaccine that saved hundreds of thousands of people from polio. It’s just the beginning. These are the kinds of decisions that will make Covid look like child’s play. 🤦♀️
C’mon. Trump doesn’t have a clue. He’s either parroting something the last person said to him or they’ve made a $1m+ donation to his bank account.
My Grandmother contracted polio as a child and wore a brace her whole life. I’m skeptical that the polio vaccine will be targeted, but, another one, possibly MRM will be. The problem with so many of these stupid ideas is that the ramifications won’t be felt right away and MAGA will just lie anyway
Well that would be just stupid if they did that….
People will die!
That’s the last thing trump cares about.
People care more that their children could catch autism (wrongly) than that their children could die.
The death of your children is the last thing trump cares about. Some of these diseases including polio will result in death. Also, you don’t “catch” autism; it isn’t communicable.
I think people must be free on choosing being vaccinated or not, and must never be fascistly mandated to be vaccinated or not, as I think that is a by far more humanly way instead of allowing euthanasia or encouraged 'nazish' self or assisted killing of the diseased people in some country recently!
They are going to kill us all
The Trump crew are a bunch of idiots..
I just posted about Wormhead omg
Here comes the collapse of the empire. Just like Rome.
I already got my booster ,right after the election
Cloud cuckop land.
If the Democrats were smart they would use Elon's DOGE department to their advantage. They should call for state's rights to be extended to the Federal budget allowing Blue and Red states to be divided along party lines. Blue states will have universal healthcare while Republicans die of Polio.
Killing people through bad healthcare wasn't fast enough.
From MAHA to MADA - enjoy the ride MAGAts
If Trump was any good at all, he'd dump RKJr. and his lawyer. Lots of others should also be dumped, but those guys are trying to kill our children. That's the only possible explanation.
why are you calling him a vaccine skeptic. there is no such thing. people who oppose vaccination are delusional. not skeptical.
Unbelievable!
CNN elected trump so you did that you coward motherfuckers. Ever notice CNN employs nothing but coward motherfuckers? It is genetic. Their father was also a dickless coward son of a bitch. Fuck you.
theconversation.com
The next few years will be very interesting indeed...
Stupid MAGAts.
My mother survived Polio. I hope my son does as well.
Kill them within, said Vlad to his comrades 🤔
One advantage of very old white men in power. They have living memories of these horrible diseases.
And Mitch McConnell HAD polio.
That was definitely on my mind.
I want to say something snarky and mean about iron lungs, his luck in his recovery and longevity but I’ll just think it.
nut jobs are the gop, i hope they kill lots of their own by their blatant stupidity
Is he high?!!! The Polio vaccine was a lifesaver when I was young!!! Why do people listen to that Kennedy lunatic?!!!
Welcome BACK to the Age of the Iron Lung. Trump couldn't build enough Covid Respirators, how is he ever going to keep up with the Iron Lung demand?
This is a reminder to make sure your vaccines are up to date everyone. Because you won’t know if you’ll be able to get vaccines in the coming years.
Hmmm. Seems unwise.
JFKs nephew needs another dose of Invermectin cause clearly the worms are back
Or does he need more worms?
😂 you might be onto something
Polio is only a plane ride away. Pakistan and Afghanistan are the only countries that still have the disease..
Can't wait for iron lungs to make a cameo in the final season of the USA. 😮💨
MAKE IRON LUNGS GREAT AGAIN
The world watching the Trump Circus
Absolute craziness…
Shall I invest in iron lung machines, walkers and crutches now?
Absolutely remarkable! Makes no damn sense!🤬😡
Headline should read “Donald Trump lies again, this time about supporting the polio vaccine”.
Hello Polio
Notice all the folks who are anti-vax already got their polio vax as children? Russia wants us weak and dying, and tRump, jfkjr and the rest want to be oligarchs. Ta!
They really want us to go back to the what 1930's???
1800s
#Tesla will soon launch an #IronLung for #polio victims
Bob SB shipped off to Mars.
This is beyond dumb. I have met people who had polio as children. Why would someone wish that on their children?
Classic Trump chaos: calls the polio vaccine “the greatest thing” while his HHS pick’s team tries to REVOKE it. It’s a MAGA two-step—say one thing, do the opposite. This isn’t leadership; it’s dangerous incompetence. Protect public health, not MAGA egos!
Chaos is the point. It is the dumpster fire that keeps us distracted while they loot the country.
Exactly right. Part of the authoritarian "playbook". Eventually the public just gives up trying to figure out what is real and what is not, and become resigned to the disorder and lack of consistency at the top.
THEY THRIVE ON CHAOS—IT’S THEIR COVER FOR LOOTING THE COUNTRY! While we’re distracted by their circus, they’re raiding the vault. AMERICA DESERVES BETTER. Time to douse the dumpster fire and expose the grift!
Idiot always will be idiot
Trump publicly points 1 way while his cronies are doing the opposite behind the scenes. Come on, CNN, he's played this card since 2016. You should be used to it by now. What trump says and does are 2 different things.
Clowns 🤡
Returning divisive political favors for administration positions with zero successful past experience in the administrative position! Typical way to have chaos and bring failure to Americans.
The right hand doesn’t know what the left hand is doing. As expected.
I will take my children to fucking Canada if I have to.
I just wonder how the rest of the civilised world would react to this. No flights to and from the USA.
Impossible since he only hires the best people
Make America Great Again! (You know, by bringing back good old polio)
The majority of adults in America are vaccinated against polio. I thought the new American agenda was to make more babies not kill them.
President Roosevelt was a polio victim. I am sure he would have grabbed the vaccine if there was one at the time.
Maga cnn
Crazy, absolutely nuts!
If that’s the case, fire Mr. Worm!
No, they want them to die and the ones that don’t to live in poverty, struggling to stay alive.
Stay in your lane RKK jr. Do not dare to bring Polio and deadly diseases back because of your stupidity to not acknowledge vaccines work.
The insanity goes on and on. I remember Polio and how bad it was crippling and killing kids. A childhood friend ended up with a crippled leg. We need 95% inoculation to prevent a horror storyspread again.
Make Iron Lungs Great Again... Let insurance companies deny coverage. Watch children suffocate from paralyzed lungs. Born children are not fetuses.
Thank you for getting us to this point, CNN. May your next four years be karmically appropriate.
Morons
WTF. This is totally insane. A vaccine that has prevented the deaths from f millions and millions of children. These people are so ignorant.
This is absolute fucking insanity. Being “great” apparently means bringing back polio. This cannot be real life.
Make Polio great again
This is barbaric. What's it going to take ? A pandemic.
You saw how he handled the last one. He’ll just play golf until it’s over.
Maybe we should send golf clubs to every world leader—turns out, peace treaties and pandemics just needed a better swing!
That’s what I’m afraid of😬
exactly what an enemy foreign agent would do to America
That is just fucking nuts
Make Iron Lung Machines great again.
Make Polio great again.
🤣
Rs Orcs!!
You are going to be just dead
We are so screwed
I got my vaccine as part of an initiative to eliminate polio. How did we end up here?
Murder
RFK Jr is to obtuse to last in that position. He is both to inept & to incompetent to take on task, but yet Trump chose him!
