    Time to test a sufficient population of test subjects, process sufficient data to identify and isolate vulnerable sub- populations, tendencies, vulnerabilities and such, and to allow for enough time for peer review, testing hypothses, reproducing results, and examining them...

    Among others.

    How Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Distorted Vaccine Science


    This account gives multiple examples of how Kennedy intentionally distorts the truth and flat out lies around vaccines.



    Just four days after a correction confirmed that his story had misstated the levels of ethylmercury infants had received—it was actually “40 percent, not 187 times, greater than the EPA’s limit for daily exposure to methyl mercury”—Kennedy told MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough, “We are injecting our children with 400 times the amount of mercury that FDA or EPA considers safe.” Kennedy also said on-air that children were being given 24 vaccines and that each one of them had “this thimerosal, this mercury in them.”

    Those statements were not even remotely true: In 2005, the CDC recommended that children under 12 years old receive a total of eight vaccines that protected against a dozen different diseases. Only three of those vaccines had ever used thimerosal as a preservative, and all had been thimerosal-free since 2001.

    The pernicious elite obsession with RFK Jr.

    Kennedy spent the better part of an hour rehashing an article he wrote in 2005, which falsely claimed that childhood vaccines are linked to autism. The article was so flawed it was ultimately retracted by the outlet that published it, Salon. "[C]ontinued revelations of the flaws and even fraud tainting the science behind the connection make taking down the story the right thing to do," Salon's editor wrote.

    In the piece, Kennedy relied extensively on the work of Mark Geier, a doctor whose license to practice medicine was revoked by Maryland in 2011. Geier pushed the vaccine-autism link as a frequent expert witness. He also misrepresented his credentials and developed "a 'protocol' for treating autism that involved injecting children with the drug that is used to chemically castrate sex offenders at a cost of upwards of $70,000 per year."

    More broadly, Kennedy alleged a massive, multi-decade coverup by governments, non-profits, and private industry to hide the dangers of "thimerosal, a mercury-based preservative" used in some vaccines. Kennedy quotes Mark Blaxill, a vehement opponent of vaccines, who claims that the harm done by vaccines is "bigger than asbestos, bigger than tobacco, bigger than anything you’ve ever seen
    ."

    Now he is speaking at a Mom's For Liberty convention. Can one of the right wingers on the board tell me why your fellow right wingers are obsessed with him? I'd also like to know why he hasn't switched parties yet

    Yes, polio isn’t a virus either. And notwithstanding the vaccines it’s still very much with us, albeit under different names. Indeed, a friend of mine contracted one of the more recent iterations of polio, GBS. She got if from her Pfizer injection.

    The ferocity of the attacks on RFK Jr clearly shows they consider him a force to be reckon with. And the human pin cushions, the devoutly vaxxed, consider that he is attacking their judgement.

    RFK Jr. backed by group connected to top MAGA Republicans

    "Only Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. can unite the Nation to start healing America. And Heal The Divide, Inc's mission is to heal America by ensuring that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. is the next President of the United States of America," the Heal the Divide's website reads.

    Creators of the Super PAC, however, appear to be connected to conservative Republican Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and George Santos of New York as well as former Georgia GOP Senate candidate Herschel Walker, Rolling Stone reported on Friday, citing data compiled by OpenSecrets, a nonprofit that tracks campaign financing and lobbying.

    Don't forget that Alex Jones is also in love with him. Given the fact that all the right wing is trying to prop this guy up tells me all that I need to know

    Incidence of polio in the US, noting that the Salk vaccine became available in 1955.

    When the media works so hard to influence the people. The media believes they still have an audience to influence. They have a small one, but most are not going to give them the time of day.

    Where are these democrats who allegedly support RFK? The only people I see are far right wingers. Maybe no one is taking him seriously because it's a transparent ploy by the far right to weaken Biden.

    What if Bernie suddenly ran as a Republican? Should Democrats be complaining about why no one on the right is taking him seriously as a presidential candidate and giving him equal airtime to Trump and Desantis?

    LOL, the so-called ‘dead virus’ vaccines CAUSED the condition commonly referred to as polio. Other possible causes included DDT.

    Glad to see you're ok. Was worried about you with Wagner marching toward Moscow. I'm sure that was a scary time.

    Look how scared they are of RFK Jr. A man who’s worked on environmental issues for decades and who actually served 30 days in prison for trying to stop the Navy from bombing Vieques island over environmental concerns. He’s as authentic an American as it gets. Watch them try to destroy him. But it won’t work.

    Not half as scary as when unarmed selfie-taking buffalo-horn wearing crazies paralyzed the US.

    Rather than tear him down, the Biden Democrats should let him do his thing. Biden is going to get the nomination, the smart thing would be to dump Harris and name RFK as his VP.

    That’ll never happen. Once the DNC selects their leaders, they back them at all costs. Plus, RFK Jr. is the antithesis of Biden. One is deep state to the bone, the other is anti-establishment to the bone. That duo will never work. It would be ten times worse than LBJ keeping RFK as his attorney general, to them. The Dems aren’t flexible like that anymore. There was a time when JFK would still name LBJ his veep, even though the two despised one another. Or Reagan naming Bush his veep, despite their mutual hatred of each other (at least in the beginning). Times have changed. Another sign our democracy is eroding.

    Why any sane dem wouldn't prefer RFK over the demented one is beyond explanation.

    If RFK Jr is such a great Dem, how come Republicans are fawning all over him?

    Biden should appoint RFK as head of the EPA. Let’s see if the pubs still love him then.
