“I don’t think I’ve seen a more dangerous decision in public health in my 50 years in the business,” said Mike Osterholm, a University of Minnesota expert on infectious diseases and pandemic preparations.”
The Department of Health and Human Services plans to cancel contracts and pull funding for some vaccines being developed to fight respiratory viruses like COVID-19 and the flu.
🤬
They want americans to die. Trump hates america & everything she stands for.
Brain worms have gone down a black hole.
Fuck you wormy!
All the funds that doge and Trump and RFK Jr and the rest of this administration has held up where is this money at? Who is keeping account of it? Trump fired all the people who were the watch dogs!
The agenda of these morons is baffling 🤔
Bob is unqualified, uninformed, uneducated in medicine, and seems unstable & unwell. The poor quality of life due to preventative illness-and deaths-for an unknown number of people will be his legacy.
Didn’t Kennedy assure everyone during his confirmation hearing that he wouldn’t be doing anything to affect vaccines?
“Let me be absolutely clear, HHS supports safe, effective vaccines...[a] universal vaccine...could be effective"
Something that doesn't yet exist COULD be effective - There's no clarity in this
The next question is what will the Trump regime do with that $500 million instead?
The most dangerous public health decision ever made was the appointment of RFK Jr. as secretary of the Department of Death and Disease.
Trump = economic suicide RFK = medical suicide
From the “I’m not an anti-vaxer” anti-vaxer?
Asshat!
He shouldn't be anywhere near the heath administration - let alone making dangerous decisions that will kill people, he has no authority to do so -
We should be able to vote on all of these decisions. A true democracy.
But a former drug addict was such a great choice!
. RFK is an idiot.
I've had education for a medical laboratory technician, and I know more than he does, Unbelievable!
He needs to study just one college course, Immunology & Serology.
His position should be filled by at least an MD.
We can fund it. Fuck him. 100M people donate $5.00 and we're golden. Fuck these people. They want us dead, but we dont have to die. We can do these things and tell them to go fuck themselves. Fuck paying federal taxes. It's idiotic at this point. (more)
America is going backwards by the day. I hope that this is a lesson for other democracies. Educate your population, develop critical thinking, and be careful who you vote for.
the best i have heard yet
brilliant
He's taking people back to the 1800's, no vaccines, no pasteurisation, no healthcare.
Life expectancy back then was at best, mid 40's. With current life expectancy in the mid 70's, he's taking half your life away.
He lied to the Senate under oath.
They really are trying to kill people.
Kennedy is a deranged lunatic.
You it was said Obama warned F47 that the information they said a pandemic was very likely in the near future amd that they had prepared everything necessary shoukd it occurred. And F47 said nahh I don't need any help. Fas t forward to 2019 and over 1 million dead. And they're continuing down the
stunningly stupid
I hope that a responsible statistician keeps track of the illnesses and deaths this deranged asshole causes. He'll allow preventable diseases to wreak havoc on our nation. His place in history must never be forgotten. His worm eaten brain will prevent him from ever admitting what he did. 🤯💉🔬🧪🦽🩼
Has he ever given a reason as to WHY he wants to defund medical research and rank the U.S. at the bottom of all the other countries?? He can have his red dye…but why cancer, Alzheimer’s, vaccines, drugs???? Why does he hate life so much he wants to destroy everyone’s…
You get what you vote for 🤷
Where is all the money from these departments? Are they pocketing it? Cause they aren’t using it to take care of the people of the United States!
Do these idiots have any idea in what their doing ?? The obvious answer is not no, it's FUCK NO !!
So business leaders as your workers become sick or die, because of mr brain worm what are you going to do????
RFK is using the $500 million to buy heroin for his heroin addiction
Here’s a question. What are the going to do with that half a billion dollars?
A smaller population is easier to control and manipulate. They are purposely trying to reduce the population of the United States.
There's another obituary I'm looking foward to seeing. Whyyy couldn't it have been an amoeba instead of a worm?!
Kennedy's brain worm is digging deeper into his brain to get out of the summer heat. He's a moron.
Obviously, that money is better spent on ICE, a ballroom, and new airplane {sarcasm}
Pandemics aren't done with us.
Jr. is quite mad!
“Dangerous” doesn’t even do it justice. Destructive. Malevolent. Diabolical even.
MAGAts intentions are to literally cull the masses...
And Senator Cassidy be like 🦗🦗🦗
Ask yourself: Who is the beneficiary of the $200+ billion spent annually in the US on cancer treatment. Those are the same people who would lose out if a curative treatment were developed.
You’re going back to the Middle Ages. Masters and servants. Rich and poor. Educated and non-educated,......US society is moving to 1% who have everything (health, fortune, education,.....) and 99% who have.....nothing or peanuts. Is it this, the American Dream?
Kennedy is a jackass. A known good and affective drug, and this dickwad cancels it
RFL Jnr is a Captain of the Kings of Death ?
The US has a collapsing Birth rate and now a failing medical system.
Life expectancy will plummet & in addition the US is the only developed country with woeful level of infant mortality .
This damage cannot be fixed under current systems.
Exactly where does this money go when they pull funding that has already been appropriated? Nobody knows?
Just look at RFK, Jr. What a useless piece of blowhard, maniacal waste.
A kakistocracy in full swing...a nation led by kooks, morons, opportunists, imbeciles, conspiracists, tv presenting tosspots, crooks, criminals and the corrupt, aided and abetted by the wealthy, the ignorant, tge racists and the bigots. Basically an unserious nation in many ways
So, what does he have planned for that 1/2 Billion Dollars in Funding? 🤔
Wonder what the tariff rate on mRNA vaccines will be. And how will it work when the prices are reduced by 1,500%?
They need the money for that beautiful ballroom at the White House..
Trump's response to Covid-19 was a passive Genocide on Americans and now he hired JFK Jr. and his Medieval Voodoo-Science, we better hope Ebola or Marburg don't hit us,America's defenseless with these people in charge, incredibly irresponsible on a World who didn't vote on these Anti-Science nutjobs
The whole Trump Administration is nothing but a band of demons.
In 2001, I warned Osterholm that on-demand COVID-19 testing was increasing travel by those who tested negative, exposing them to the virus. He said he would pass it on but was coauthor of a later retrospective that ignored it. www.amazon.com/dp/B0FGWH3RYV

Way to go
@RFKjr is outta his mind
It was eaten by a 🐛
This administration is weeding out the weak and sick
WTF Congress: so sick of them not doing anything about money already appropriated pulled by the dummies who everyone knows were only confirmed because the R’s are too scared of Daddy Trump.
#darwinism could save US
That worm did a number on his brain! His dad and uncle would be so ashamed with him!
The Heritage Foundation is a death cult. They refer to “culling the herd”. Starting with people of color.
Because a FASCIST strategy is that sick people are easier to control.
How is this idiot able to do this all on his own volition? Is HHS just one guy making decisions? Are there no people in the agency that can stop stupid? I guess Congress might have a say. Are they afraid of RFK jr.? He isn’t TACO. If he brings too much heat TACO would just drop him. Make heat
The Osterholm Update podcast has been something my family found during the lockdown and continue to listen to for unbiased and informative content www.cidrap.umn.edu/osterholm-up...
Always thought that mRNA vaccines were risky. Using nano lipids for delivery of a drug means that it can pass the blood brain barrier. Right? Much prefer safer more traditional vaccines.
Killing the vulnerable is a thing Hitler did so they are following his playbook
Gotta pay for those oligarch tax cuts (and kill ppl too!)
He is incompetent and crazy.
#FireRFKJr
But the senile moron in the White House doesn't care because he gets the best health care in the world even though he denies health care to everyone else. That's how the rich and powerful think - "I got mine, so screw you". And his cult has empowered him to do this.
Have none of these people read The Masque of the Red Death? You can’t hide from infections diseases for long, no matter your wealth or status.
bad bad thoughts must think good things
The rich will still have access to vaccines for their children. They can fly them anywhere where vaccines are available. Culling the herd
So he can just do that on his sole decision?!
Don't worry the US can always import medication. No one would put tariffs on those.
The life expectancy in US is going to drop to third world numbers.
It's not as bad as it seems. There is an awful lot of research outside of the US. Biontech and others invest billions into it. The US will pay steep prizes for the resulting drugs, though. But that is par for the course. As The Clown prizes stream engines, RFK Jr peddles cupping and snake oil.
It's OK - the Chinese will be happy to sell you new vaccines when the shit hits the fan.
Another one who lies with both sides of his face, “I am not antivaxx…” and they all confirmed him.
I have a very aggressive form of RA. This hack has destroyed the hopes of so many. He has taken away HOPE. This word helps people to want to look to a good future. He has taken this from us. The future cancer patient, MS, or any person with a disease. He has put an expiration date on us. 1/…
So very many people are going to die; but they don't actually give a hot sh*t and it looks like that's their goal - WTAF!!! 🤬🤬🤬
Back to the middle ages...
I don't think he can legally do this if it is already appropriated.
Anyone that voted republican is getting what they deserve. Everyone who voted Democrat deserve our support..Anyone who didn't vote should be held responsible.
www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
Risks of a wave are compounded by new vaccine restrictions from the Trump administration
If you ever needed proof that the US DoH is run by a sadistic eugenicist.
Impeach and remove
