why he a 2 face pos? he said it wasnt a problem, its a problem now? actions need consequences, and not taking action needs double the consequences. not taking action weeks ago seem like it became a problem today. fuck rfk
He realized that his main fanbase are the same ones that will clamor to shake his hand and infect him with the plague he encouraged.
And, boy howdy, I hope they do. 💅
"Top priority" for the department? Is there any department left? I thought they were all let go in a cost cutting move.
Oh no, the wrong people are dying.
/s
Why? Did it suddenly touch him personally? Is his brainworm infected, or something?
Brainworm took a nap and he regained control for a moment. He will backtrack as soon as Baal wakes up.
It’s not a parasitical relationship, it’s symbiotic: he is as dumb and has the same goals as the worm.
It might be the opposite: the worm is trying to save us (other potential hosts for its species).
Too bad he didn't eat a truck stop egg salad sandwich
My ancestors came over on the sandwich!
I say they want to prevent vaccines because one of the vaccines is poisonous to their worminess.
That’s possible. One thing we may agree is this worm is smarter than rfk jr.
I think the game plan is to let easily avoidable bad shit to happen so they can ride in and "save the day".
Aww that's cute. No, it really is just insane amounts of incompetence.
We've done this before.
“Save the day” by changing their mind on vaccines? I… I suppose that makes them look… good? 🤷
Someone explained to him with pictures and crayons how viruses and vaccines work.
"not unusual"...first U.S. measles death in a decade
Yup, things that don't happen for ten years are just run of the mill, nothing to see here.
department would send 2,000 MMR vaccine doses to Texas.
It's a bit late for that!
It's really not too late, every unvaccinated person who receives a vaccine today is one person who's less likely to become a transmission vector. Also, this MMR shipment would potentially replenish dwindling stocks, because lots of people in West Texas who hadn't previously been vaccinated have already been getting vaccinated
To be clear, I'm not defending RFK Jr and his literally insane ideas in any way
I was being a bit facetious, but also there's a good chance there's enough unvaccinated people out there now acting as vectors that we might be looking at mutations that have overtaken the vaccine. Absolutely agree that the more people vaccinated the better, and I really hope it can out a stop to this outbreak!
The measles virus doesn't mutate like coronaviruses or influenza viruses, that's why the vaccine has been so successful at eradicating it
Well, that is reassuring at least!
If only they didn't spend so much time weaponizing vaccines as bad...
what are you, a (((globalist)))?!?!
Think about it from RFK's perspective: he goes on an antivax campaign in California, and measles breaks out in Disneyland. He goes on an antivax campaign in Samoa, and measles break out in Samoa. He campaigns in Texas...measles outbreak. I'm sure it looks to him like measles is everywhere.
What a good but terrifying point!
These days I wouldn't be surprised if his plan was something in the rethoric of "We will gather all of the infected and quarantine them in special epidemic camps. Then we will cleanse them with holy fire in specially designed room-sized holy incinerators."
We could even get them to work a lot with no pay between the quarantine and holy fire bits.
Less of an insightful prediction, and more of a logical conclusion for anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together.
He hasn’t yet developed his republican double-down muscle. Fortunately.
Just wait until they start allocating vaccines to "appropriate recipients". TX? Sure. Oh, CA...sorry....
He should call Cali governor to DC and berate him on camera for not saying thank you enough times
Possibly thanks to the worm
I guess 2000 is a start.
