    It’s barely been 3 days since the entire panel of vaccine experts has been removed, and considering the vetting process for appointing new members to the panel takes years. It’s not surprising that the new appointees aren’t good, even though RFK has pledged that none of the new ACIP members would be "ideological anti-vaxxers” I doubt that will be true and hold up under scrutiny

    As expected. While Trump and Musk have or will have killed a lot of people with their cost cutting with USAID.

    I expect the larger number of deaths to come from RFKjr. He is a deeply stupid man who cannot read and does not understand science or health related issues at all.
