Health and Human Services Honcho RFK Jr. Tells Congress He Doesn’t Think Anyone Should Take ‘Medical Advice from Me’

Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said that the doesn’t “think people should be taking medical advice from me” during a hearing before the House Appropriations Committee on Wednesday.
Kennedy’s statement came after Rep. Mark Pocan (D-WI) noted that Kennedy, a longtime anti-vaccine advocate, has vaccinated his own children, before asking, “If you had a child today, would you vaccinate that child for measles?”
“For measles?” asked Kennedy, mulling the question over. “Probably for measles I-, you know, what I would say is my opinions about vaccines are irrelevant,” before suggesting he thought “everybody can make that decision” for themselves.
“I don’t want to make it seem like I’m being evasive, but I don’t think people should be taking advice, medical advice from me,” he continued.
“Right, no, I got that, and I’m not asking you to give them medical advice,” replied Pocan. “But would you vaccinate your children?”
“I think if I answer that question directly, it will seem like I’m giving advice to other people, and I don’t want to be doing that,” insisted Kennedy. “I want people to make up their own-”
“But that’s kind of your jurisdiction, cause CDC does give advice, right?” followed up Pocan. “I’m not trying to do it as a gotcha.”
“I think what we’re gonna try to do is lay out the pros and cons, the risks and benefits accurately, as we understand them,” responded Kennedy.
Measles cases have risen during the first few months of Kennedy’s tenure in his position. Just a few weeks into that tenure, The Wall Street Journal editorialized that he was “already vindicating his critics.”
“First, he downplayed a measles outbreak in Texas. Then he reportedly hired a trial-lawyer ally to work on a government study of the link between vaccines and autism. Now he has pushed out a top Food and Drug Administration official because he helped accelerate approval of the Covid vaccines,” observed the Journal at the time.

This is the result of peak anti intellectualism and conspiracy culture. Now the practical lessons. Measles has already been clapping fools. We might have a resurgence of killer childhood viruses on a mass scale
If Polio comes back because of these fools
I seen the tail end of Polio in Kenya growing up, I also see all the people who came up in the era pre vaccines and even the ones who survived childhood killer diseases and viruses were permanently changed. If that shyt comes back. Lives will changeIf Polio comes back because of these fools
