This is how lawyers build momentum for a class action lawsuit and, of course, while doing this, Kenned is creating fake science to use for the lawsuit.

Kennedy is not an asset but I don't see any candidates running against MAGA pointing out the carnage of MAHA, which I think is a mistake.

Seriously? This is just a front to funnel families into Aaron Siri's clutches for exploitation in their planned lawsuits and class actions against vaccine makers and the US govt. Also so they can cook the science.

Samoa was his experiment for 2019, but the government there told him to get lost when it cam to implementing the data collection system. But the damage was done. 80 children dead from measles.
Screenshot from the January 24, 2025 article on NBCNews.com by Brandy Zadrozny titled "Experts saw Samoa's plunging vaccination rates as a crisis. RFK Jr. saw an opportunity.", and subtitled "New details show how Robert F. Kennedy Jr., then chair of an anti-vaccine group and now Trump’s pick for health secretary, sought to exploit a deadly vaccine accident.".   Also included is a screenshot of a paragraph describing how the goverment of Samoa refused to let him run his vaccine experiment, stating: " Children’s Health Defense didn’t ultimately build a health information system for Samoa. Former Prime Minister Malielegaoi said he had not been swayed by Kennedy’s visit. “I was not interested in his ideas — he was not a medical doctor,” he told NBC News. “Our medical experts are more credible to me.”  "

Robert F Kennedy Jr in 2023: "‘We’re going to give infectious disease a break for about eight years" Those making the midterm political ads about MAGA corruption need to spotlight harms of MAHA/Kennedy. We can't afford 6 more years of Kennedy destroying public health in his war against our kids.
Screenshot of an a November 4, 2023 article by Gustaf Kilander in The Independent titled "RFK Jr pushes for ‘break’ in infectious diseases research" with a subtitle that states:

'‘We’re going to give infectious disease a break for about eight years,’ independent presidential candidate says '

I'd personally like to not thank the American Academy of Pediatrics for the last 15 years of failing to directly and by name confront anti-vaccine groups. This AAPathy allowed these groups to grow strong enough plummet vaccine rates and thus maim and kill our patients with measles, etc.

But what they push isn't even health. It's death from measles and pertussis and meningitis in children that should have been vaccinated. MAHA which is what health freedom is now quite bluntly harms and kills and children.

It's very depressing what people will do to their children based on some Facebook group and a bunch of postings by people they've never met who don't have any expertise about what they're pushing.

Unfortunately science illiteracy plays a role, making it easier for the bad apples to con parents. Same thing though. It begs those of us who know things and are experts in it to teach enough of it to everybody else to help them avoid being conned.

I would get angry with parents who wouldn't vaccinate until I realized most did so because of quack grifting physicians promoting completely wrong advice, with those physicians having little to no repercussions or liability. The same can be said here for raw milk. What is wrong with our profession?

The CDC is now a shadow of an )institution. I know there are still good people at the CDC but leadership is gone. As evidence I present The September 2026 CDC newsletter (which is late, October is in 3 days) that says nothing about vaccination whatsoever. Nothing. Nada. ZIP. ZILCH.

I don't think public health officials are getting any uptick in vaccination from these current measles outbreaks, which is an ominous indicator that the US anti-vax movemement has covidized the MMR vaccine--and likely all other vaccines on the childhood schedule. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/27/u...

Except anti-vaxxers have convinced many parents--along with not vaccinating--to not believe in public health, including the duty to stay home when sick.

The new director is another Kennedy finger puppet, and it really sucks when I now go to a CDC web page and have to spend half an hour determining if it's still legit or been screwed over by Kennedy and his Lysenkoists. What a clusterf*ck this is.

"Gold standard" is a turd-polishing dog whistle foisted on real physician -scientists by those destroying the NIH, who are replacing it with policy-driven "science" (aka Lysenkoism 2.0) I hope those affected (such as here) can make it through to the other side.

Mainstream outlets still refusing to fully call out the death and damage Kennedy is causing, even after he re-unfurled his anti-vax freak flag loud and proud on Thursday for all to see. Sadly I don't think any number of children dead from resurging vaccine-preventable infections is going to matter.

The Hill showed Kennedy's speech live and called it a "Children's Health Forum". It was a forum whose attendees openly endorse measles in children and mock those children who died from it.
Screen shot of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. current Secretary of US Department of Health and Human Services, speaking in the afternoon of Thursday, September 17, 20206 as the keynote speak of the Children's Health Defense "CHD in DC" conference in Washington DC. 

The media outlet "The Hill" has titled the video of this speech (on YouTube) "RFK Jr speaks at children's health forum amid vaccine scrutiny".
