Do not normalize children dying from measles. Measles was previously eliminated in the US, thanks to vaccines.

When children die from measles, it means that adults have catastrophically failed to protect them because they have rejected basic science.

Second child dies from measles in Texas outbreak; Kennedy to visit state More than 480 cases have been reported in the state since January.

When people said RFK Jr would be responsible for the deaths of kids we meant it literally. He has been before, is now, and will continue to be.

Kids bear the cost of anti-vax propaganda.

RFK Jr & cronies profit from it. They earn millions 💵 making people afraid.

FDA tobacco official is removed from post in latest blow to health agency's leadership The Food and Drug Administration’s chief tobacco regulator has been forced out. Brian King's departure Tuesday comes just days after the FDA's top vaccine official stepped down over disagreements with...

BIG TOBACCO RETURNS— "The Vapor Technology Association, an industry group highly critical of King’s leadership, said in a statement that his removal 'is the first step in correcting the broken mindset that has crippled the FDA and the Center for Tobacco Products over the past four years.'"

This is fucking cruel. Withholding $300M. That’s 0.004% of the 6.8T budget last year m. They are willing to let 8 million kids die over the next 5 years to save 0.004% of the US budget. How much are we spending on rooms at Mar-a-Lago when he’s golfing?

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought. To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears. To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool. To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen. To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies. To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.

For other cancers there’s still so much progress to be made.

I think it’s worth it.
