If we could admit the following, it would save many lives: COVID is airborne COVID is not over COVID is a social justice issue & everyone deserves access to vaccines, respirators and clean air COVID can impact everyone, not “only the vulnerable” Lastly, the “vulnerable” deserve protection too

Pregnancy is considered a disability. Adriana Smith was a black, disabled woman in need of medical care. The hospital dismissed her & she died. Because she was 9 weeks pregnant, they’re keeping her body alive against the family’s wishes. Misogyny, ableism & discrimination harm in life and death

They want to make lists of people likely to obtain an abortion. They’re coming for the abortion pill and plan B. They’re criminalizing pregnancy as a means of controlling women. It’s not about life or health. Now Texas have proposed a law that criminalizes discussing abortion online:

Restrictive abortion bans are bad enough, but many States have a pregnancy clause that “invalidates the advance directive of a pregnant woman, negating autonomy” The moment you become pregnant you effectively cease to be a person. Your autonomy vanishes. You can’t even decide your fate in death

“Wellness” is a billion dollar industry that has little to do with actual health. Influencers push pseudo science, blame people for being sick and are dangerous to those with disabilities & chronic illness. They peddle the comfortable lie that you can “try harder” your way out of disability.

This motherf--- just claimed CDC's response to the measles outbreak is the best in the world. Look, our colleagues at CDC and local health departments are doing AMAZING work in a toxic creek of an environment. But RFKJ has massively damaged the measles response. We doubt we are finding 1 in 5 cases.

This is an unscientific decision that will cause harms. While topical fluoride is useful, when adult teeth are growing (in children) ingested fluoride makes more impact than any topical fluoride later can. Everything we ingest “changes our microbiome.” Microbiome composition is not a health outcome!

The “covid is only a threat to the vulnerable” narrative primed the pump for the eugenics movement we’re seeing now. It conditioned people to see the disabled & vulnerable as acceptable losses. People who were probably going to “die anyways”. It paved the way for fascism.

Addressing the chronic illness epidemic will take more than just disappearing the chronically ill. We need: Universal healthcare & basic income Affordable food & housing Paid time off Clean air & masks in healthcare Without those things, it’s eugenics. It’s blaming the disabled for being sick

60% of nurses want to leave their job within the next year and 95% of them said they wouldn’t be as burned out if hospitals/healthcare corporations staffed nurses appropriately/safely. This is a solved problem. But none of these companies will hire more nurses, and everyone is gonna suffer instead.

Measles was completely eradicated in the United States by the MMR vaccine. It is not possible for anything to be better than that. It is journalistic malpractice to present this as anything other than stupidity, lies, and outright fraud.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will direct federal health agencies to explore potential new treatments for measles as the U.S. faces its largest outbreak in 25 years. Experts fear the decision could have grave consequences, as studies show the existing vaccine is 97% effective in preventing infection.

I’d say that Kennedy Jr.—whose deranged conspiracy theories are now likely to cost America a new COVID-19 booster this fall—won’t be happy until his narcissism costs tens of thousands their lives, but the truth is he won’t be happy then, either.
