First, context: HHS controls the CDC, Medicare/Medicaid, the Food and Drug Administration, the National Institutes of Health, and a whole bunch of other health-related agencies.
Whoever leads HHS has to handle pandemics, food safety, abortion access, and drug research.

Vaccination eliminated polio & smallpox in the US. Under RFK Jr, they could come back. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/nov/04/election-trump-rfk-jr-vaccines-fluoride
83 people died. Most of them were children. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/07/how-rfk-jr-falsely-denied-his-connection-to-a-deadly-measles-outbreak-in-samoa/
Vaccines lessen the spread but can’t always defeat someone with poor hygiene and a full viral load.
Would RFK Jr. ban abortion? Unclear - he changes his mind about it every few months. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/rfk-jr-reverses-abortion-stance-confusion-contradictions-emerge-within-campaign/
53% of white women voted for that policy to take effect.
Drinking raw milk exposes you to E. coli, listeria, bird flu, and more, and has already led to outbreaks.

This man is a loon.
How do you want to run the HHS, but cause harm to people?
Make it make sense!
Because I never see any pushback from Dems, soooo…..
If raw milk comes from a big dirty feedlot, sits waiting for bottling & distribution then sits unrefridgerated before stocking, people WILL get sick.
Up on a Swiss alp I remember tasting milk fresh from the cow, sweet & delicious. And those big round slabs of cheese that had to be rubbed daily with a rag dipped in saltwater. Contamination is the potential problem.
Sadly, it's just going to happen. Mostly young children in red states.
But if I did I would DEFINITELY not drink raw milk.
Putting raw milk on the shelves might just reduce the reb vote via natural selection though.
Perfect information = perfect choice? We shall see.
He's a classic example of why you should never do so.

Also, he does know this could lead to a LOT of miscarriages if people are not aware of the effects of listeria.

Welcome back poliovirus 😢
Wonderful to see you on BS, Madame! 🥰😍🤩
Otherwise, we're helpless to fight old wormy whale head.
What a stupid moron. Polio was rampant in America until the early 1950s and afflicted children in particular. They suffered from paralysis, respiratory distress (remember the iron lung) and death. Salk's vaccine in 1953 was a miracle! RFK, Jr. is dangerous!
Maybe QAnon got it wrong and they're gonna kill us by taking vaccines away instead of giving them to us.
