Summary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Donald Trump’s pick for Health and Human Services secretary, has a history of extreme rhetoric and conspiracy theories about vaccines.
In previously unreported comments at autism conferences, Kennedy likened vaccination programs to Catholic Church abuse scandals and Nazi death camps and argued for jailing vaccine scientists.
He has falsely claimed vaccines cause autism and accused public health agencies like the CDC of corruption and hiding vaccine dangers.
Critics fear his leadership could dismantle vaccine safety efforts, decrease public trust, and disrupt public health policy.
Can you imagine what it’d be like if mandatory childhood vaccines are eliminated? Can you imagine what a resurgence of measles or even polio would be like?!
No, you probably can’t, because vaccines made them non-issues before most of us were even born. And now they might come back because some dullard thinks he knows better than actual doctors and scientists. Dunning and Kruger must be crying themselves to sleep these days.
We don’t have to imagine. RFK made it happen once already.

Maybe the Polio is what we need for another FDR like president.
He will probably try to roll back washing hands and quarantine. Then XDR TB will roll up and kill waaaay more than most other things. But, to be fair, some of the other things will kill more quickly.
“Employees are encouraged to wash hands before returning to their shift, if you’re some sort of weak pussy.”
He will probably start to promote brain worms in the future. It’s the worms who control this guy.
