US committee is reconsidering all vaccine recommendations

All vaccine recommendations are being reconsidered by the US’s vaccines committee, according to its top adviser, who in recent interviews slammed vaccination requirements for attending school and said vaccines should be taken on the advice of an individual’s doctor.

The stance from Kirk Milhoan, chair of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), represents a dramatic departure for the group tasked with making US vaccine recommendations for decades, signaling an increasingly hostile approach from the Trump administration to routine vaccines.

The childhood vaccine schedule is undergoing radical changes under the purview of Robert F Kennedy Jr, secretary of the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and longtime vaccine critic. Some of these changes are being led by his handpicked vaccine advisers, several of whom have expressed outsized fears of the very rare risks of side effects of vaccines compared with the benefits of protecting against illness, hospitalization and death supported by decades of evidence.

In a separate interview on the podcast Why Should I Trust You?, which was released last Thursday, Milhoan said that he supported individuals over the collective public and framed vaccine debates as “autonomy versus public health”.

1. Fuck it, die then. Thank goodness I have been vaccinated and I'm too old for the childhood diseases

[mahina]

2. Wow. That is impressively evil.

Not only does it kneecap public health but it also makes individual doctors’ lives harder.

Does death have lobbyists?

11. Long Term Care facilities; Funeral Directors; Casket Manufacturers; gravediggers and mausoleum builders...

... and maybe the Embalming Fluid manufacturers, or cremation facilities.

3. Where is Sarah Palin running around screaming "DEATH PANELS"

Of course she's mute when it comes to crooks in her own party.

4. This is very important.

Milhoan seemed to see the rapid growth as an opportunity to understand how dangerous measles is for unvaccinated people.

“What we’re going to have is a real-world experience of when unvaccinated people get measles. What is the new incidence of hospitalization? What’s the incidence of death?” he said on the podcast.

Elizabeth Jacobs, professor emerita at the University of Arizona and a founding member of Defend Public Health, said Milhoan “wants to experiment on the people of the United States by seeing what happens as vaccination coverage plummets and infectious diseases spread”.

“This is so dangerous as to approach criminality,” she added.

Remember the experiments that the nazi doctors did?
Don't think that they won't try it again.
These people are SICK!!!

And this has a name:
Autogenocide.

Autogenocide exposes how states/governments drive populations to destroy themselves through poisoned environments, collapsing healthcare, misinformation & engineered despair.

It's mass death by design & by the outright neglect of society.

AKA social murder.

5. What about my autonomy if I get infected by an unvaxxed RW freedumb fuckhead

even though I'm vaxxed -- some of these vaxxes don't 100% prevent infection, but reduce the likelihood of getting infected, and/or the severity of the infection.

framed vaccine debates as “autonomy versus public health”.

6. It's time to make

The lives of every Kennedy appointee intolerable. They need to be looking behind their backs at every move. They are litterally make moves to kill people. They must be stopped.

7. We are going 70 years backward. And not just healthwise. nt

[enigmania]

8. It's the '50s again without science and the middle class.

9. Meanwhile, in South Carolina . . .

Two cases of measles were diagnosed in October. The state is now up to 840 cases.

Mostly centered around Spartanburg's biblethumper communities; some of the cases are in a Slovenian community that distrusts authority.

10. Vaccinations are a non-issue.

See your GP.
If he spouts MAGAt influenced dogma, go to a different GP.

But the observation is right, a large population of unvaccinated people represents a danger to those who have been vaccinated.
Especially the old and immuno-compromised people.
Might be time to mask up again.

March is the time here for my annual flu shot.
And I will be asking what else is available at that time.

The Australian government has decided itis cheaper on taxpayers to vaccinate people than it is have some in a hospital bed wheezing their last and taking weeks to die.
Sounds sensible to me - why doesn't that level of common sense apply in America?

[mahina]

12. Because the people in charge of these decisions, no longer consider our well-being at any point.

For now. In charge of these decisions for now.

[durablend]

14. Because the people in charge consider us to be "useless eaters"

Was it Miller that said to get rid of (or bring the country down to) 100 million people would be a goal?

13. God created viruses.

If God wants children to be crippled for life what right do we have to change his plan?
