Anti-vax is now the mainstream GOP position. They’re starting with COVID jabs because they’re new. And media has been willing to carve out an exception for skeptics of the COVID jabs as though they’re not anti-vaxxers. But they are and they’re coming after all vaccines.

Les racines du capitalisme étant celles qui ont dominé la réponse médicale et sociale à la pandémie, on ne s’étonnera pas qu’elles se soient conjuguées dans ce désastre, qui a aussi nourri l’élection de Trump. Un regard parfait sur ces cinq années par @evanblake17.bsky.social

Trump's plans to eviscerate public health, epitomized in the nominations of Bhattacharya & RFK Jr, will provoke enormous opposition. This must be developed into a conscious struggle for socialist public health, uniting workers & principled scientists globally. www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

Trump nominates vicious opponent of public health Jay Bhattacharya to head the NIH

Bhattacharya’s appointment is a clear signal that the ruling class aims to demolish the last remnants of public health still standing after five years of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Another way of framing it: Bhattacharya and his Great Barrington Declaration co-authors were providing scientific cover for an economic agenda supported by right-wing business interests. They wanted mass infection of the population to keep the economy rolling. They never cared about the elderly.

Ashish Jha was selected by Biden to be the “Covid Response Coordinator” precisely because he supported the pro-corporate GBD policy of mass infection. It’s no coincidence that he’s now endorsing Trump’s ghouls. I wrote about Jha’s appointment here in March 2022: www.wsws.org/en/articles/...

Biden appoints mass infection advocate Ashish Jha as COVID-19 Response Coordinator

The selection of Jha underscores that the White House will do nothing to stop the pandemic as the Omicron BA.2 subvariant spreads uncontrolled, and all federal pandemic resources dry up.

The November 20th webinar sponsored by the World Socialist Web Site (@WSWS_Updates) analyzed the cabinet being assembled by Trump. The selection of extreme right-wingers, including outright fascists, marks a new stage in the collapse of US democracy. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPqi...
