Back to the 19th century ....

A key legal adviser to Robert Kennedy Jr, Donald Trump’s pick for health secretary, is at the center of efforts to push federal drug regulators to revoke approval for the polio and hepatitis B vaccines and block distribution of 13 other critical vaccines.

Aaron Siri, a lawyer who has been helping Kennedy select top health administrators as part of the Trump transition process, is deeply embedded in longstanding efforts to force the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to withdraw a raft of vaccines that have saved the lives and health of millions of Americans.

Those diseases aren't eradicated.
It's the fact people still have the jabs that keeps outbreaks and pandemics at bay.

Once you start weaponizing medicine, where's it going to stop ?

Going to 'grade' effective treatments for diabetes ?
Those on the lowest incomes going to be given a poorer quality insulin replacement ?

How about medicine for heart disease ?

The two biggest killers in the U.S

@KunsanVeteran As with all things like this, i say
follow the money !

Who stands to make a profit from the impoverished dying ?
I don’t think the Senate will confirm this nimrod.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
@LeopoldBloom I think they will. They will defy logic and common sense, because Trump has something on all of them.

Hmm. Why don’t we have those diseases, because years ago there was a vaccination program!!
Oh boy- make Polio great again.

Back to the fourteenth century. The 19th was positively enlightened compared to our own times.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
@SunshineGirl In some ways I agree with you. In others, we were positively backward.

@KunsanVeteran but look at the bright side... We can introduce burning witches again.... Or those that don't believe in his trumpishness

Our military are required to have several vaccines prior to deployment to foreign lands.

I assume the new administration plans to either send troops w/o vaccine protection to foreign lands.....or to withdraw every member and bring them all back to the USA to patrol the border and/or assist in tbe roundup and deportation effort.

@JSul3 no end to the repercussions
@JSul3 people still don't really want to understand the US military spread that Spanish flu.
SunshineGirl · 36-40, F
@JSul3 It's one way of withdrawing troops. Unvaccinated Nepalese soldiers serving under the UN banner are suspected to have brought typhoid fever with them into Haiti.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
From what I have heard, a large part of the problem is that vaccines are not properly tested for either safety or efficacy. I have never looked into it but if the COVID vax is any indication.....
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@Roundandroundwego And you obviously believe it. I don't. To each their own.
@hippyjoe1955 no, but I believe we say what helps. Saying we don't have trust in what we trust helps Washington, for sure.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@Roundandroundwego If you don't trust Washington?????
helenS · 36-40, F
What's the situation right now, in the US? Is vaccination (against, say, influenza) free? Or do you have to pay for it yourself? Or is it covered by your health insurance?
@helenS it's different for each person.
helenS · 36-40, F
@Roundandroundwego thank you! The original poster said the new US government will "block distribution of 13 other critical vaccines".
I don't really know what that means, exactly. Will vaccines somehow be declared illegal or what?
Convivial · 26-30, F
@helenS probably push the decision to the states maybe... Seems to be what they do...
gol979 · 41-45, M
I cant see rfk jnr getting in. Something will stop this coming to pass. Hard to believe that trump, the self declared father of the covid injection (and still selling it) would put someone in who is critical of injections, especially the operation warp speed trump covid injection.

Plus all trumps other picks were mrna, lockdown nutjobs.
@gol979 Anti-Zionism is antisemitism.
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
@LeopoldBloom I disagree. Anti-Zionism is not the same thing.
gol979 · 41-45, M
@LeopoldBloom the guy that founded zionism was an athiest. And there are lots of christian zionists.
We don't have access to the facts and the ethical rules we once agreed on. The conservatives can't win arguments so we're beyond argument.
I'm ready to let them have this.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Roundandroundwego are you also ready for the effects?

@Nighttalker Vaccines are 1000x safer than the diseases they protect from. The polio vaccine has been around for decades and any claim that it’s unsafe is based on crackpot conspiracy theories.
Convivial · 26-30, F
@Nighttalker first off i don't appreciate being called a liar... What i posted above is a straight clip from a local newspaper... If it is incorrect please let me know and offer proof it's incorrect... In the meantime, please grow some manners

@Nighttalker
There are over 100 vaccines kids have to take now.
American children must look like pincushions! How on earth have my children survived with only the dozen that are required here in Norway?
