During his Senate Confirmation hearing, the crazy, unstable, and drug addicted buffoon, Robert Kennedy Jr., denied making some very unfounded and outlandish comments about health and wellness in the past. Now that the US Senate has confirmed this unqualified buffoon to run the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services which oversees the CDC, the agency will begin a study into vaccines and autism.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is planning a large study into potential connections between vaccines and autism, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters, despite extensive scientific research that has disproven or failed to find evidence of such links.
The CDC’s move comes amid one of the largest measles outbreaks the U.S. has seen in the past decade, with more than 200 cases and two deaths in Texas and New Mexico. The outbreak has been fueled by declining vaccination rates in parts of the United States where parents have been falsely persuaded that such shots do more harm than good.
U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr, whose role includes authority over the CDC, has long sowed doubt over the safety of the combined vaccine for measles, mumps and rubella (MMR). In a cabinet meeting last week, Kennedy initially downplayed news that a school-aged child had died of measles in Texas, the first such death in a decade, calling such outbreaks ordinary and failing to mention the role of vaccination to prevent measles.
Last weekend Kennedy published an opinion piece on Fox News that promoted the role of vaccination, but also told parents vaccination was a personal choice and urged them to consult with their physician.
Kennedy and influencers bash seed oils, baffling nutrition scientists
Seed oils bad! Lard and butter good!
Until recently, most Americans had never heard the term “seed oils,” even though they’ve likely cooked with and consumed them for decades.
It’s the catchy description coined by internet influencers, wellness gurus and some politicians to refer to common cooking oils — think canola, soybean and corn oil — that have long been staples in many home kitchen.
Those fiery critics refer to the top refined vegetable oils as “the hateful eight” and claim that they’re fueling inflammation and high rates of chronic diseases like obesity and diabetes.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the new health secretary, has said Americans are being “unknowingly poisoned” by seed oils and has called for fast-food restaurants to return to using beef tallow, or rendered animal fat, in their fryers instead.
And then there’s Marge:
Marjorie Taylor Greene Promotes “Measles Parties” for Kids Amid Deadly Outbreaks
Measles can cause brain swelling and pneumonia. A child in Texas has already died.
Encouraging measles parties for children undermines decades of public health efforts aimed at eradicating the disease and poses risks not only to unvaccinated children but also to vulnerable populations, such as infants and immunocompromised individuals. The recent resurgence of measles outbreaks in multiple states has already resulted in the death of a child in Texas.
