Excellent post. I’m going to borrow it from you.
RFK Jr for HHS

I completely changed the way I ate about 35 years ago. Grew up overseas, and back in the US started organic gardening. Then when I could get pastured meats, I did.If anyone is interested here’s a synopsis of a pretty good podcast on the subject of what we put in our food amongst other things.
Started me on my healthy eating kick fwiw
Eating Ourselves To Death | Honestly With Bari Weiss • Podcast Notes
Bari Weiss and Dr. Casey Means evaluate the goals and challenges of the past 15 years of the obesity epidemic it’s evolution over time. Currently, 73% of Americans are overweight or obese and the social dialogue has shifted to “healthy at any size.” Dr. Means breaks down what’s wrong with our...podcastnotes.org
Makes a difference, plus it was really cool to make pizza dough, go out in the garden and pick the ingredients to use. Etc. I won’t bore y’all. You get the drift.
My Brie as a polio pioneer. He was one of the lucky ones. He got the real thing.
Even some his own age got polio. I was 5 years younger so I had the vaccine that they later administer by sugar cube.
We also all had smallpox vaccines. That has not been eradicated. There is worry that it can come back.
The sources that I read are science journals.

I never did so non applicable.
She also wasn’t advocating for getting rid of the harmful additives that are put in our foods that aren’t allowed in Europe.
Which makes it more difficult for people to eat healthy.

You were way ahead of the game!
Get the Yuka ap if you haven’t yet. You can scan products and it flags all the crap.
As long as that conversation doesn’t come from an uppity black woman!
Anti-vaxxer/anti-science guy in charge of health. The dude thinks 5g and wifi are a public health menace.
Needs to be posted in every Trump cabinet thread.
Removing pharma ads on tv seems a-ok to me. From my understanding pharma ads are not allowed to advertise on TV in most other nations?
If you want to support the autism causing vaccines like hep B then that's your perogative but once again I will remind you that you're in the minority and this is what people voted for.
If vaccines were as dangerous as people like you like to say it is, then I should have run into at least one example of someone, somewhere, being killed by a vaccine.
all that shit is true.
Just a few things most people in this thread must really hate:
1) Government transparency
2) Checks and balances
3) Solved mysteries

Except ‘she’ isn’t the head of HHS. Xavier Becerra is.
And what were/are Becerra’s qualifications? He was a Democrat lawyer and politician.
Exactly. Like. RFK. 🤷♂️
Let's think about this for a sec. Let's say a vaccine actually did cause a death of someone you knew. As a vaccine injury denier, are you (or the many like you) going to feel compelled to properly attribute cause of death? How would they know?
Ah, the anecdotal fallacy:
The anecdotal fallacy is a common fallacy that occurs when someone uses a single experience or limited personal experience to draw a general conclusion about a topic.
this cabinet is special. thanks trump voters. this is what you wanted
With full disclosure that I'm a pharma industry schill by day, let me start by saying that RFK is a wack-job. Just a wack job. On many levels.
With that said...
1. Of all of the wack jobs that have been nominated so far, at least he's someone who's a sincere wack job about the issues he may oversee, and has been at it for a while. And there are a few areas like the food pyramid where a little shakeup may be appropriate (though honestly, isn't that a DoA issue?).
2. I do get a certain chuckle about the fact that when obama floated him, Politico fawned over the idea... https://www.politico.com/story/2008/11/obama-considers-stars-for-cabinet-015320
3. Another chuckle worthy moment will be watching democratic senators vote against a Kennedy. Perhaps an appropriate coda for a brand that is long past its sell by date.
Finally, a broader comment. The reality is that you don't want or need a medical person to run HHS. Not any more. FDA, NIH, PHS, and CDC is where you want medical people. At HHS, the primary job is managing the enormity of what the government spends on health care and how it regulates its delivery. What you should really want is an insurance company executive.

Yeah, vaccines do cause autism. Everyone should have acknowledged that by now if they're capable of critical thinking, and if everything goes as it should most people will acknowledge that soon. Be patient.
Personally, I think the 'solution' to the vaccine conundrum is pretty simple. Either eliminate, or probably more preferably, just scale back the scope of the Vaccine Injury Compensation program to cover fewer products (and more narrowly define those that may be covered in the future), such that manufacturers of vaccines (i) have to sell their products to patients and doctors on their merits rather than being able to 'piggyback" on a federal recommendation process they can influence, and (ii) are on the hook directly for injuries that their vaccines cause. So if you think you've developed a great vaccine for a useful condition - fantastic! - sell it on its merits and put your money where your mouth is regarding its safety.
Funny how people like him say the same when we talk about people we know who we feel were injured by vaccines.
Any vaccine(s) that aren't properly tested are on the table, until they can be properly tested and proven otherwise.
I'm still waiting on a lib to explain to me why children need 3 doses of the hepatitis b vaccine before they're a year old (or why an infant might contract hepatitis b at all..). They won't even accept a conversation that the risks may far exceed the rewards in these cases. Feet dug in.
That's the thing. These people do a benefit analysis, rather than a cost/benefit analysis.
Population density maps look similar to that one. Do factor for empty land vs where humans live.

100% of autistic people have looked at the moon. We should ban looking at the moon because it causes autism.
The majority of people that smoke 2 packs of cigarettes a day don’t have autism. We should encourage people to smoke two packs of cigarettes a day. 2 packs a day keeps the autism away.
They want to be told what to think/do.
Cope.
Why do you think the autism rate has grown drastically at the same time the vaccine schedule has increased substantially? Coincidence? Lunar cycles? Fluoride in the water?
So what is the summation of ones that have been tested vs not? Where is that data?
Guess to have a discussion on why the rates are increasing, you have to also have a science base discussion on what causes autism...
Any formal causation studies that show the 2 rates are increasing in parallel?
You forget the best part. Supposed health nut has been using steroids for decades. Granted it might be in a low dosage under Dr. supervision. It’s still something that is in no way healthy for your body.

I don’t have the faintest idea. Just pointing out that correlation does not equal causation. I’m sure a Harvard man such as yourself understands that. There have been numerous statistically significant studies that show there is not a definitive link.
Now could it be those studies are wrong and the guy whose brain was eaten by worms is right? I suppose it’s possible, just very unlikely.
Back to RFK…I would actually be excited about someone passionate about organic farming and chemicals in our food as the Secretary of Agriculture. Unfortunately they put him over health.
Again, no worries; Trump has a backup plan for this one as well:
It gave me a platform to air out some information. Got the normal LOLs emojis as expected.
I'd like to push back on the MAGAs who take issue with my post.
Broken supply chains.
Ships backed up in harbors unable to off-load.
Empty warehouses.
Empty shelves in stores.
Banks needing bailouts.
GM bankrupt.
Chrysler bankrupt.
World economies in crisis.
What do you find humorous about this? What do you find erroneous?
Biden didn't create these situations, they existed when he took office, He acted actively and decisively.
