Devastating indictment of #RFKJr from an #autistic advocate: "Instead of approaching this issue scientifically, the HHS chief seems to have decided in advance what the answer was and worked backward."

"Writing in the Lancet medical journal in July, Heidi Larson, a professor of anthropology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, identified the US as the origin of so much of the 'pandemic of misinformation' and 'fringe narratives' that caused controversy during the Covid pandemic and appear to have gained even more traction since."

"For example, from 2019to 2021 the US acted as 'a major exporter of Covid-19 vaccine misinformation, with American accounts disproportionately represented as central hubs in global misinformation networks', she said. That influenced behaviour in countries as far away as Nigeria, Ghana and Bulgaria, contributing to reduced uptake of Covid and childhood vaccines."

Today’s autism announcement was just as bad as we feared

Trump blamed Tylenol & vaccines for autism

He encouraged women to just “tough out” their pain

He praised people who don’t “need” meds or vaccines

These are eugenicist talking points & they’re devastating to the disability community.

My latest looks at the threat to our lives, as well as how we can support one another.

We must not give up hope, but we need our non disabled allies to fight with us.

Refuse to see us as expendable and help us demand better:

"As a result, organisations such as the WHO and Gavi, the vaccines alliance, in their day-to-day work promoting vaccines 'are increasingly confronted by vaccine hesitancy grounded in exported disinformation, much of it directly traceable to American political discourse and media,' Larson said."
