Vaccine Confusion Reigns Under MAHA Regime

The best solution is something every other major economy has already figured out: universal health care.

The United States is leading the world in COVID-19 deaths. Fourteen states have “very high” wastewater levels of the disease. There is still no cure for long COVID, which sickens 6 out of every 100 people who become infected and can cause serious indefinite disability.

None of that matters, according to anti-vaccine nut Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services. No, he has pledged to Make America Healthy Again by reducing access to modern medicine.

His chief weapon is confusion, on display shortly after the Food and Drug Administration changed its COVID vaccine guidance late last month to approve the shot only for people at least 65 years old and adults with one of a short list of medical conditions. At a hearing last week, he gave one contradictory statement after another, including during a six-minute exchange with Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). He’s not taking vaccines away, he claimed repeatedly. But the vaccine is not recommended for healthy people. Most Americans can get the vaccine from their pharmacy for free. But also, it depends on the state.

The practical result of such gobbledygook is that, as Warren said, Kennedy is “effectively denying people the vaccine.”

RFK Jr has to go; there must be an asserted campaign to get rid of him, so much noise that Trump can't tolerate the blowback.
