Rain here at last. First time this month, we really needed it. It’s not enough, but at least it hasn’t forgotten how to rain.
Meanwhile, over in the USA, measles is spreading in eighteen states. Doctors are telling people to get vaccinated, but they are shouting into the wind. Decades of undermining medicine and science are paying off.
RFK is again responsible for this. But good news, he’s found somebody to lead his vanity project which will definitively establish the link between vaccination and autism.
This man is David Geyer. He has no experience in research, clinical or otherwise. He does however have medical experience, at least he did until they took his licence away. That was for lying about his credentials, and maltreating autistic children.
The last point is the clue. It’s depressing looking through his record. You can extrapolate the entire anti-vax movement just by looking at his madness. Now RFK has got somebody who knows the conclusion to the study, all they have to do is find the evidence to fit.
So typical for the new administration. Loyalty and ideological purity are the watchwords here. Here we have them wasting a lot of money and the expertise of what remains of the CDC in order to prove a logical fallacy.
All of this and then I read that JD Vance is now calling bullets “freedom seeds”. They are insane, the lot of them.
