Genuinely one of the biggest advancements of the 21st century so far, and he wants to throw it away.

Hundreds of thousands 𝘪𝘧 𝘸𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘭𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘺

If highly pathogenic avian flu becomes easily transmissible between humans, this number could be off by an order of magnitude or two

Also just had their first successful cure of a patient with sickle cell, using mRNA technology

phostetlerart.bsky.social•4 days ago

To call RFK jr “Doctor Death” would be inappropriate, since he’s not a doctor. “Mister Death” sounds exactly stupid enough, though.

It’s breaks my heart to see your nation’s science institutions gutted this way. All I can do is keep the flame of science alive in my kid’s heart till you folks recover your senses.

He’s a sadist and eugenicist. He wants this.

It’s a real life Stephen King novel.

mRNA vaccines are looking very promising as a cure for cancer.

This idiot wants to throw away a possible cancer cure because it doesn't fit his ideology!

Not this one man. 70 million voters and 52 Senators.

millions.

#FckMusk and #FckTrump and all his staff, they are traitors🤮🤮🤮

peanutbd.bsky.social•4 days ago

That’s a pretty low estimate Phil…don’t forget without incentive to research and develop, worldwide pharm won’t pursue…even if means dying. That how dumb we are. Worldwide we have led. Without funding…they’ll just make ozempic 2.0 instead of doing the right thing

He doesn't like GLP-1s either.

Well, his boss was responsible for over a million bc of masking resistance. So, he's just trying to impress.

RFK RFK, how many kids did you kill today?

ashuman1180.bsky.social•4 days ago

"...that HHS was considering canceling a $590 million grant to vaccine-maker Moderna to develop mRNA vaccines against potential pandemic influenza viruses. That includes the H5N1 virus that is currently devastating US poultry..."
My aunts here got Moderna mRNA against Covid. In future not?!?

jackbwuzhere.bsky.social•4 days ago

Oh, there's a more deadly strain running around now. H9N7 I think.

scott.bs.lastcallphotography.com•4 days ago

I wonder if there's like a race between Doge and RFK Jr to see which one's actions kill the most people.

joshuazucker.bsky.social•4 days ago

Someone should create the scoreboard … sad but true.

We should tell them that population reduction is a strategy for battling climate change. Then they might be less in favor of mass death.

lifeofriley215.bsky.social•4 days ago

They clearly want mass death of seniors, poor, minorities, disabled, all undesirables to them. They want to reduce entitlement spending and create the white, christian ethnostate. It's not a bug, it's a feature.

kelpkelpkelp.bsky.social•4 days ago

If you get pancreatic cancer in, let's say, 5 years and there's no mRNA vax to save you available, RFK, Jr. killed you.

tuttles.bsky.social•4 days ago

The US's very own Lysenko.

erynwyld.bsky.social•2 days ago

I believe the promising new vaccine for pancreatic cancer is an mRNA vaccine. 💉

hal10000.bsky.social•3 days ago

This is personal for me. My wife has pancreatic cancer. mRNA vaccines probably won't be fully operational for her but some other family will have to go through this when they absolutely shouldn't have to because of RFK. He's evil.

hugh258.bsky.social•3 days ago

Methinks you are an optimist.

scottpal.bsky.social•4 days ago

RFK Jr’s perception of ‘cross hairs’ is genetic manipulation. Probably.

whoooruhoohoo.bsky.social•4 days ago

It’s truly what they want.

coloradorob.bsky.social•4 days ago

I see his nomination as a eugenics program. People like Musk and Trump see those stupid enough to believe the anti-vax crap, and their families, as deserving of their fate.

They don't care about the blast radius. And they don't understand herd immunity.

I think everyone in the Trump administration blames all of humanity for their personal failings and is out for revenge.

slickpoetry.bsky.social•4 days ago

We shouted out, "Who'll kill you and me?"
When after all
It was a Kennedy

kinnabeck.bsky.social•4 days ago

This is fiiiiine. Never mind that the basic tech of mRNA is over 4 decade old. Never mind that a trial of vax for pancreatic cancer was alllllmost ready…. NEVER MIND SCIENCE!

Ugh

we-are-toast.bsky.social•4 days ago

I'll slightly disagree. Give credit where credit is due. It falls on EVERY Republican in the Congress, of course the convicted felon, and the South African NAZI. Thousands of babies in Africa are going to die of starvation and disease. The GOP is a death cult.

silkebrandt.bsky.social•3 days ago

I wonder at what point the rest of the world (minus some dictatorships) will ban travel from the USA.

jtadetroit.bsky.social•4 days ago

and, indirectly, the Republicans who voted from Trump, knowing that he planned to appoint RFK Jr. They, and their politicians, are getting away with sharing the blame for what’s happening

sybilltrelawney.bsky.social•3 days ago

They are developing mRNA treatments for pancreatic cancer and Bobby Brainworm is shutting it down.

gatherdarkness.bsky.social•4 days ago

True, and yet his appointment was met with absolute zero effective opposition.

skolia.bsky.social•4 days ago

... and they put him in charge of health...

ouinne.bsky.social•4 days ago

Millions over time

sdgirl.bsky.social•4 days ago

I boggles the mind how people, who are most likely alive today due to life saving vaccines, want to take life-saving vaccines away from future generations. I do believe RFK Jr’s brain worm is still alive and in complete control of his brain.

nickmsp.bsky.social•4 days ago

He already has a body count

"Hundreds of thousands" sounds optimistic.
