Incoming administration: America First!

Me: y'know, I could get behind that if it meant spending billions on US infrastructure, education, and healthcare

Incoming admin: Lol no, it means letting kids die of preventable diseases because fuck foreigners amirite

Me: Are we at least going to vaccinate our own children so THEY don't die of preventable diseases?

Incoming admin: Absolutely not, fuck off with that commie bullshit

I'm telling anyone who will listen, if you're behind on vaccinations of *any* kind, not just covid, get them NOW.

TDaP
MMR
Polio
Shingles

Any of them. I wouldn't put it past this guy to eliminate all of them if he can.

The NYT doing its thing.

What were the effects of trump recommending all the quack treatments?

Check out the JMIR Report: "Impact of Trump's Promotion of Unproven COVID-19 Treatments and Subsequent Internet Trend" to see the damage that occurred & spread of misinformation.
It's well written and easy to quickly scan the results.

The last thing we need is trump & #RFKjr as Secy of HHS dealing with our health & welfare. LIVES are at stake

Unbelievable.
