I love vaccines, animals, and my wife, who set up this profile.

The sequel to We Want Them Infected is done!

COVID killed 1.2 million Americans while vaccines saved millions.

Yet, disinformation superspreaders were empowered, where they are taking a wrecking ball to science & medicine.

How did that happen?🧵

This is what I said about Dr. Bedard’s December 2024 piece when it came out.

“I'm disgusted by all of the "RFK Jr. might ashually have good ideas except for vaccines" hot takes. Being an anti-vaxxer is disqualifying for any leadership role related to healthcare”.

Let me twll you how ELSA is going right now. It cost the FDA like $11 each query and 70% of those query’s are to compile response emails to fucking coworkers. No one trust it, it hallucinates on its own non-web connected data & causes excessive manual fact checking

Prasad previously announced that he intends to start with the conclusions he wants and work backwards to produce the "evidence."

Vaccines do not cause autism despite RFK Jr's change to CDC site
RFK Jr forced the CDC to claim that vaccines cause autism. Published scientific research refutes this claim.

Larger media outlets have wavered since the first Trump term, but we've remained steadfast in our categorical rejection of MAGA in all its aspects and our affirmation of liberal democracy and the principles that it rests on.

In the second Trump term, we are growing: www.gofundme.com/f/the-libera...

Gosh. What a mystery.

How did vaccines become politicized? What could the answer to that question possibly be?

Remember Andrew Wakefield?
Here he is with his friend RFK Jr. in 2020.

Wakefield is the guy behind the fraudulent, retracted MMR–autism study. He lost his medical license for subjecting autistic children to unnecessary invasive procedures.

Now, with Kennedy in power, he’s getting a second act.

So not good, but better than nothing, especially at the population level.

Why is so much good faith given to a man whose policies will lead to death and injury? It’s not like there’s a debate either respect to vaccines. That would justify good faith.
Over many interviews, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Michael Scherer about how he plans to remake America’s public-health system. Can he lead the scientific establishment he’s spent much of his life crusading against?

No surprise the Trump NIH director doesn’t understand how science works—doesn’t get NIH has been *the* world-historic leader in innovation.

After all, he’s never actually done any science.
Even before his rightwing pundit career 2020-25, he spent his time with economists, not scientists.
The NIH director told attendees the NIH doesn't do enough innovative research.

“What puts lives at risk is doing research that’s incremental,” Bhattacharya said. “All it does is advance the careers of the researchers that do it. It results in publications that don’t get used and aren’t replicable.”
