RFK Jr is either IGNORANT or a LIAR. The two measles deaths — both unvaccinated children — in Texas announced today are actually the FIRST deaths attributed to the disease in the U.S. since 2015.

not unusual? What? I don’t even remember a measles outbreak in forty+ years. I do remember getting vaccinated at school and all parents being happy about it. If by not unusual he means like his Samoa disaster then it’s just confirmation of his stupidity.
OK, RFK, where are your facts for this statement that we have measles outbreaks every year? Kids get vaccinated and they don't get measles and, most of all, they don't die from measles.
I think it’s really important for us to acknowledge that these are the first measles deaths in the 50 states, but not for the US because American Samoa suffered great losses in no small part related to RFK jr’s anti-vax schtick there. https://youtu.be/KMed0kxM6as
Something the U.S. doesn't have every year is an HHS Secretary with a brain partially eaten by a worm that subsequently died of malnutrition and drug addiction.
True, but measles vaccine is supposed to be administered at 12 months in the States, with a second at 4-6 years per CDC recommendation. So if this kid was school aged, the parents declined to vaccinate their kid years ago. When someone else was HHS. https://www.cdc.gov/measles/vaccines/index.html
A few years ago, I got some advice from a friend of my mom’s who’s a retired epidemiologist: people who got MMR vaccines in the 1980s should consider getting a booster.
Next up: We have Directors of HHS die every single year from a variety of horrible accidents. I mean, just last year, some poor HHS Director schlub had his arms and legs pulled off in a freak drawn and quartering accident. Right in the town square no less. With a huge crowd onlooking.
He is a recovering heroine addict and a psychopath. He dropped out of the presidential race to support the orange, smelly man. The smelly man promised him a position if he did that. Do I need to say more?
Why is it a choice? RFK Jr is both ignorant and a liar. These people have no integrity and are lowlifes. When your entire family has to keep coming out, begging the American public not to trust this guy, it should say something…
but then again, 49.8% voted for a sexual predator & felon, so…
Science and academic freedom are threatened by pressures both financial and ideological. Research is being suppressed, scientific evidence and those who advocate for it are under attack, and misinformation is rife. JFK is a leading misinformation.
When he makes pronouncements like that, I catch myself thinking, "well, of COURSE that wouldn't have been considered so bad way back in your day, you shriveled, century-old mummy." Then I remember he's a seventy-something who just looks impossibly ancient. Wear sunscreen, kids.
He is a Trumpanzee so he is both a liar and an idiot! Do you really think RFK gives a shit about children? If you do you’re as stupid as the Orange 🤡 you voted for!

He also went to UVa Law. I too went to Harvard and UVa Law and find RFKJr the epitome of a privileged grad of both universities. Believe me there are many grads if those esteemed schools who are horrible people
This ignorant fool with 1/2 a toasted brain (because the worm ate the other 1/2)... And what's left is the total burn out 1/2 remaining after excessive heroin use... Not only minimized the measles outbreak in W. TX but actually said... "It's NOT unusual. We had 16 outbreaks last year." A TOTAL LIE!!
I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that right now, the parents of those kids completely believe him. If you start from the premise of believing antivax propaganda, you've already travelled a long way on a dark road with no turning places. How very sad.
The GOP is a death cult. RFJ, Jr. joined the party after being rejected by smart minded Democrats. Wherever he can spread his malicious lies, and say "meh" when human beings die from them, he'll happily go. He's a plague, and so are all the pathetic GOP Senators who voted him in.
He’s an immoral ghoul who has spent a lifetime encouraging and directly profiting off of fear-mongering and ignorance - without a second thought for the resulting suffering and death of the children impacted by his lies.
We told them people will die because of trump. People on airplanes dying. People dying from not getting vaccinated. People dying from starvation. All because of trump.
Him and everyone who confirmed him to that seat who enabled him to do this. No different than the parents who are complicit to their children committing a mass school shooting.
I really hate posting things like this but in this case it is important. This individual thought nothing of concocting a completely fake bicycle accident to cover up his actions in burying a dead bear in Central Park. Apparently what he did could have been unlawful and resulted in a $250 fine. 🧵
I get the distinct impression that RFK Jr. intends to do nothing about this. The very least he could do, of course, is urge people to get their children vaccinated.
Trick question—he’s either ignorant *and* a liar *or* a demented sociopath who moved on from torturing animals to the serial killing of people by luring them into a Heaven’s-Gate-style anti-vax doomsday cult.
Well, there should be no doubt as to the fact that he is a full blown idiot just as it is also well known what a liar he is. He is no damn good; this is a prime example of what human failure looks like.
I vote for both ignorant and liar. Which means he has no right being in that job. BUT - all of the republicans voted for him. Even the doctors in the senate. They too must be ignorant and liars.
We gonna wait til this fucker kills 100 in Texas and more throughout the USA. Because it’s coming. Wait til it hits unvaccinated pregnant women. His people not gonna be happy
There are complex reasons people don’t vaccinate their kids. Including having been manipulated by the kind of grifter who is the current HHS. And pro-vax people are terrible at winning people over online, possibly because they call people stupid a lot.
US, a poor rich country, led by deniers who push children to their deaths. Look at the example of Brazil, not as rich as the US, but which has the largest free vaccination program in the world. Fortunately, we have Lula, not crazy people like Trump and RFK.
“The death in Texas is the first measles death to be reported in the U.S. since 2015, when a Washington woman died after an exposure at a health clinic. The last time a child died of measles in the U.S. was 22 years ago, in 2003, according to the CDC.”
He is an ignorant liar and uniquely dangerous. His arrogance & conspiracy theories will be responsible for uncountable deaths by removing the ability to not only advance research in pursuit of treatment and cures, but by removing known safety guards based on proven science. People are going to die.
RFK jr is simply another minister of chaos. Like all his cabinet members. Seems Trumps aim is to completely disturb every facet of American life. For what purpose I find myself asking?
This is your brain on drugs and worms. WTF you think you get a guy with ZERO medical or 🔬 experience. A guy who has a fixation with dead animals etc the crazy is too much to write out here.
Yeah. We’re going to continue to be fed out and out lies about everything. We’re going to be fed lies about health, and about how the economy is doing, and everything else.
I mean he's right... There are outbreaks every year, just not in the US... You know the country where this is happening. I'd never wish harm on someone but that doesn't stop me from wishing someone else would wish harm on him.
He of course made another moronic and incorrect statement about those Hospitalized saying they are there only for quarantine and not because they are deathly ill! They are sick and some dying. He needs to STFU!

Just FOLLOW YOUR DOCTOR's ORDERS, they know better than you!!!
The parents need to be charged with negligence and child endangerment.
