Summary
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced that a Trump administration would prioritize removing fluoride from public water systems, a position at odds with major health organizations like the CDC, the American Dental Association, and the American Academy of Pediatrics, all of which endorse water fluoridation as safe and beneficial for dental health.
Despite Kennedy’s controversial stance on health and environmental issues, which includes previously debunked claims linking vaccines to autism, Trump has praised his passion, stating that Kennedy would have significant freedom to influence health policy if Trump were elected.
They’re proposing to ban vaccines too, and they’re not mentioning particular vaccines, just “vaccines”. So no healthcare for trans people or pregnant women, and no vaccines. It’s only a matter of time before someone convinces them antibiotics are the devil’s work.
Nothing says pro life like returning to 18th century childhood mortality rates 😎
Antibiotics are proof of evolution, since the various microorganisms create resistances to vaccines.
Antibiotics shouldn’t be used as easily as people think, though. Because, ahem, antibiotic resistance is a thing.
It’s a responsible position to only use antibiotics when you really need it. Not when you have cold. EDIT: just in case, by cold I mean cold, not covid
That’s the kind of responsible and sensible advice the Republicans would never give. It requires too much nuance.
I don’t think I’ve heard anything responsible and sensible from politicians with chances to succeed in a two party system.
Anti-what? Ohhh you mean Satan Pills.
