Thousands upon thousands of healthcare workers and scientists were very clear in our warnings of what would happen if RFK Jr. was confirmed as HHS Secretary. Republicans ignored us. Now he is planning to pull all COVID19 vaccines off the market, and Republicans will cheer as the vulnerable die.

Local CVS website ( Phoenix AZ area ) say nothing available until '25/'26 vaccine is shipped. No listing of current year covid vaccine. I am pissed.

There’s some chatter on here that it may be coming as soon as this week so keeping my fingers crossed. The ‘25 NovaVax was already approved so not sure why that’s not available.

Do you know if this approval is only for those over 65? I am over that, but 3 others in the household are younger.

I see doctor's documentation may be needed. This is what I suspected. He does have 3 docs who can verify, so at least I know he can do that.

That is the goal RFKJr and this administration think there are too many people in the USA and losing 100m or so "sickly" people who don't work is not a bad policy goal.

They'll be pushing pills instead. What's funny is that much of this regime is invested in big pharma companies along with nutraceuticals and health insurance companies (including United Health). Either way, they've positioned themselves to win.

I remember the day I got my 1st Covid shot. I was so relieved. So thrilled. After months of working on the Covid unit. It felt like a GREAT weight of fear and anxiety being lifted, that I was protected from the very worst of the virus. Very sobering how far we’ve fallen in this horrific presidency.

I will go to Montreal to get vaccinated this year if I have to. Asked for a transfer to London, so might not be an issue in the future. People lined up to get the polio vaccine when it came out. Now, people are protesting against vaccines. It's stunning how far we've fallen and how fast.

I'm also anticipating a ban on Americans being able to freely travel outside of the country. That's a standard page in any authoritarian playbook, and one that Trump certainly won't miss. Not this year I don't think, but next year possibly.
