With all due respect to Ukrainans✊ suffering and dying (for us europeans too).
Yes, but allow me to point out, it's sadly "only" the more obvious deaths he (rather say #project2025 ) is causing (/not stopping).
Not in the deathcount (nationally/globally) included are those by cuts in health- and science-programs. #Medicaid #Medicare #USAID #vaccine #climate #education #WHO .....
The number of deaths will be in the hundreds of thousands, if not way more globally.

"Young and middle-age adults who had at least one dose of a #COVID19 mRNA #vaccine were less likely to die of any cause in the following 4 years compared with those who weren't vaccinated, a nationwide French cohort study found." https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/covid19vaccine/118840

Hey just a friendly reminder since folk are doing flu and covid vax rn to not forget about TDaP! Many places recommend a fresh boost if you have a tetanus exposure and its been at least five years since your last one, and it should be boosted every 10 years regardless. While people associate tetanus with rusty nails and barb wire fencing, it lives in the soil. So if you play in the dirt (looking at cavers, gardeners, outdoorsy folk in general) you may be due sooner than you think. Folk like us often have abrasions or cuts on our hands from doing things, and then shove our hands into dirt and mud. Keep that in mind! Plus it seems like every other winter there is a new whooping cough outbreak and thats the P part of TDaP so its an easy one to forget about but a good one to stay up on.

Now that you are protected, go flip some rocks! (And make sure you gently put them back!)

#RFKJr replaces chair of controversial #vaccine advisory panel

The chair of #ACIP, himself a well-known vaccine critic, will be moving to an official role within the #HHS, the agency announced Monday.

HHS announced #MartinKulldorff was appointed to be chief “science” officer for the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning & Evaluation ( #ASPE).

#MartinKulldorff, a Swedish biostatistician, served as chair of #ACIP at the #CDC earlier this year after #HHS Secy #RFKJr fired & remade the entire committee with known #vaccine skeptics & critics.

Career scientists at the agency responsible for information about #vaccine safety & #autism had no prior knowledge about the changes to the website and were not consulted, acc/to 5 agency ofcls…

Before the Wednesday update, the #CDC webpage stated that studies have shown that there is “no link” between #vaccines & developing autism, & that “no links”have been found between any vaccine ingredients & the disorder…

Time to refresh my #5G signal, and got a new #COVID #vaccine today. Just in time for conference season.

Keep it up. Be smarter than the #Idiocracy.

Walgreens in VA is giving COVID vaccines to anybody who clicks the "yes I'm high risk" button while scheduling it. I just scheduled my shot for Tuesday.

“Mr. Kennedy’s defiant performance at the Senate Finance Committee on Thursday, his critics say, put on vivid display what happens when someone with no medical or scientific training and a conspiracy-minded approach takes charge of the nation’s public health.”

“Amid turmoil at the CDC, the debate over the federal government’s #vaccine policy remains as contentious as ever. Now, some states are taking matters into their own hands, forming alliances to review scientific data and make their own vaccine recommendations. John Yang speaks with Hawaii Gov. Josh Green, who is also a physician, to learn more about the states’ efforts.”

The complaints shed light on much of the internal strife at the agency earlier this year, as the #Trump admin clamped down on the country’s #medical research #funding apparatus.

The scientists drew particular attention to what they described as an administration-wide “hostility” toward #vaccines that they said had taken hold in the upper echelons of the #NIH, long one of the world’s leading engines of #vaccine #research.
