In the days leading up to his confirmation, RFK Jr tried to moderate his long held opposition to vaccines.  Now with the measles outbreak in Texas, his leadership is being tested.  If the HHS secretary continues to refuse to recommend vaccinations @SenBillCassidy should call for his resignation.

carries her away
last butterfly

it is always you
I fall for again

silence returns
