Hand picked by the president to be the best person for the job for leading the dept of health.
Roald Dahl’s wight, kill this man.
a goauld symbiote ate his brain.
This is far more plausible than I’m comfortable with.
It’d be better if you were an obscure and unimportant member of the Kennedy family and stayed that way.
dint know he existed til he announced his run.
I heard about him from a Behind the Bastards podcast a few years back. I knew he was a dumpster fire and was really surprised/not surprised he got a position.
Surprised because he’s an idiot. Not surprised because it’s par for this administration.
At what point do we get to demand hazard pay from our employers for going into the office?
“Dont trust the medical institutions until you’re sick” is just the self-harm logical extension version of the plague of right-wing myopia of broke self-reliance americanism and detriment individualism. American culture is completely unsalvageable
The dems really need to appoint a shadow cabinet and hold press conferences with fact checks and useful advice about how to get vaccinated.
I’m glad that I am science literate and live close to the canadian border.
That would remove a lot of vaccine skepticism
Let the entirety of the US have measles, and a good percentage will die, another good part will be scarred for life and have disabilities from it and the country will collapse
And then Trump will rescind the ADA and disability benefits so those unable to (fully) work will become homeless and destitute and die from exposure or police brutality.
- Measles estimated case-fatality rate: 1.3%
- Estimated US population: 346,715,067
- Measles deaths if everyone in the US got measles: 4,507,295
- Upper limit on estimated MMR vaccine caused anaphylaxis: 0.000066%
- Anaphylaxis case-fatality rate: 0.3%
- Estimated vaccine-caused fatality rate: 1.98 * 10^-7 %
- Estimate vaccine-caused fatalities avoided by not vaccinating US population: 0.69
- Net increase in fatalities from switching to measles natural immunity for everyone in the US: 4,507,294
So it would only be better if he wants an extra 4.5 million Americans to die.
his worms are willing to make that sacrifice.
Measles also resets your immune system, making other illnesses deadly again.
Back in the day you’d survive Smallpox, then get Measles, then get Smallpox again.
These days, I guess it will be Covid and the Flu killing most people.
its more or less immunosuppression rather than resetting it, measles infect the dendritic cells which tells your t-cells to attack, so when those are destroyed your body cant react to new diseases, its also a form “acquired immunodeficiency”, your body still can fight, it just takes a lot longer, since b-cells takes a while to pump out enough antibodies.
Well I was told that deporting people would solve the housing crisis. Since that isn’t working out killing 4.5 million Americans seems like their fallback position.
It would solve America’s antivax issue at least.
Are there any other complications from contracting measles that you haven’t factored in?
I was about to say, the collapse of the hospital system under the burden of both measles and all the other reasons people will still need hospitals will multiply that percentage.
that’s only 1500 or so 9/11s… who cares, right?
Some of you may die, but it’s a sacrifice I’m willing to make.
rfk is a terrorist who wants to use biological weapons.
No RFK, things would be much better if YOU got measles
With you gone, people could vaccinate again and then they wouldn’t get sick, you worm for brains
he has worms which wont be affected by measles.
United States Secretary of Health and Human Services here everybody.
We did that, we gave everyone a very mild, usually symptomless, case of the measles. We called it vaccination.
We are in such a crazy timeline.
This is the kind of shit you’d see on some forum. If the forum was moderated, they’d eventually get booted.
When I was debating fucking morons like this, I never suspected that one of these assholes would be put in charge of our fucking health. It’s just so insane.
