Trump to select Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead HHS

The mission of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is to enhance the health and well-being of all Americans, by providing for effective health and human services and by fostering sound, sustained advances in the sciences underlying medicine, public health, and social services.

How can someone who doesn’t believe in the efficacy of vaccines possibly do that?

IT's sad that Not ONE of DJTs nominee's meets a non-partisan view of acceptability. Disruption is one tool to make changes, but there are also conclusions and results driven appointments. For positive changes etc. I don't think he ever hired qualified ppl. Trump has only ever hired 'trusted confidants' vs qualified candidates. A serious issue for a guy who has a conspiracy crisis complex, and suffers from paranoia from doing so many underhanded and shady things. He doesn't know of another way to do things. He has to claim false conclusions and allege others of wrong doing, because that's what he does. He would beg, borrow and steal to get his way, especially out of jeopardy. It's been his thing. It's his schtick. These will end in the same epically bad way that this first administration did.

Kennedy is a moron who doesn't believe in science, but does know that eating road kills causes bad things to happen- cause that actually DID happen to him. He has that warbling voice from some other shit he's done;

“I can’t think of a darker day for public health and science itself than the election of Donald Trump and the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as secretary of health,” says Lawrence Gostin, director of Georgetown University’s O’Neill Institute for National and Global Health Law.

“To say that RFK Jr. is unqualified is a considerable understatement,” he continues. “The minimum qualification for being the head of the Department of Health and Human Services is fidelity to science and scientific evidence, and he spent his entire career fomenting distrust in public health and undermining science at every step of the way.”
RFK Jr makes some good points, but if you think the current CDC is telling you the truth you are a bigger problem than person Trump has nominated for his cabinet.


The thing with vaccines is that they give a bunch to young kids starting school. Some diseases like measles, polio, or whooping cough it is a good thing and are necessary. But they have added mumps, chicken pox and a whole bunch of others that the risk from the vaccines is about the same as severe complications form the disease in young children. Giving too many vaccines in a short time period may cause more issues with immune systems as the body gets too many signals something is wrong.

One shouldn't "believe in science", it's not a religion.

The scientific method is an empirical method for acquiring knowledge that has been referred to while doing science since at least the 17th century. The scientific method involves careful observation coupled with rigorous scepticism, because cognitive assumptions can distort the interpretation of the observation. Scientific inquiry includes creating a testable hypothesis through inductive reasoning, testing it through experiments and statistical analysis, and adjusting or discarding the hypothesis based on the results.

The scientific method pulled us out of the dark ages into the age of enlightenment. It’s not a religion and should absolutely be believed.

Scepticism over results is part of the scientific method but sceptics of all kinds ignore the second half of the requirement. Inductive reasoning and statistical analysis.

RFK Jr and many like him feel that things are wrong but have not done the testing, inductive reasoning and statistical analysis to change their feelings into facts. But for some reason people still BELIEVE other wise. Why is anyone’s guess.
