While we pro-RFKers believe individuals are responsible for ourselves, that we are our own best health advocates, and that we think every American should have INFORMED consent, not blind devotion, to make their own health choices, like whether or not to vaccinate.

[@minagelina]

​@@TheEarlofManwhichthis is true. They don't use inert placebos to study vaccine safety and all they look at is the first few days after a study to see immediate reactions. Check out the WHO vaccine safety summit dec 2,3, 2019. Eye opening. They don't study the adjuvants, they admit vaccine skeptics are not peddling misinformation but that people should be ok with risk. As for vaccine studies, they say it wouldn't be ethical to wothhold a treatment from placebo group, so they study the new vac against an older vax version of that illness. So if there was another measles shot, instead of comparing it against the saline solution, they would say it's unethical to withhold a measles jab from placebo (making the assumption that the illness is more dangerous than the treatment) and give the old measles shot. So when you see them say they're studied and safe and effective, it's only compared to the safety profile of another shot of the same type. If it's a new vaccine like gardasil when it first came out, they compared it against saline and against aluminum. Then when they looked at the serious adverse events, they lumped together the saline and the aluminum as the placebo. So instead of being able to compare against two things, aluminum and saline solution, now it is only compared against essentially the aluminum diluted with placebo. It's completely disingenuous. So the best you can say is that the new vaccine would be as safe as an aluminum saline mix placebo. We have no idea what the long-term safety effects are and they refused to do a vaccinated versus unvaccinated study

I will say that I feel bad for RFK Jr's health matter with his voice. But it is very hard to listen to him after a while.

[@MaryElliston]

So much disrespect shown to RFK Jr. today! Congress needs some ethic's training!

[@TheWitchOfTheWood]

Sen. TINA Smith needs to stop talking so much. How are you going to ask a question, not let him answer, then answer for him and then take it personally.

Was the last HHS Secretary qualified…..

Exactly. The whole last administration wasn’t qualified

Yet, No One wants to learn about Redox Signaling Molecules because this was something that Big Pharma wanted to purchase and sweep under the rug back in 2009, Verdis Norton chose to make it a MLM company and because of this people immediately believe its a scam! It’s not, I am a 60 something woman who has been on Redox for over 3 years, my health has immensely improved in the time I have been of this supplement! Without it, I know I would jot be walking! But it’s like everything, people want immediate results, which like with everything doesn’t happen! Think of it those way, when you go to the gym you don’t get immediate results, it takes time for those results. As we age, our cells die off, there is no such thing as instant gratification! Patience is a virtue as the saying goes! I approached Bobby Kennedy 3 and he basically laughed in my face and referred to is as snake oil without even reviewing any information I provided him!

2:11:49 - RFK: "free speech doesn't cost anything" - Then why is the 1st Amendment constantly being challenged in courts from tech to high schools? Our courts have to drudge through cases, and deliver opinions that reflect the law. These decisions have broad reach on people's jobs and businesses, the internet and social media, and regular day-to-day interactions at the individual level. 2:11:53 - "In health care if you smoke cigarettes for 20 years, and you get cancer, you're now taking from the poor." Not only is that typical Zero Sum framing, India, Turkey, and Mexico are some of the cheapest countries for cancer treatment. These countries offer affordable, high-quality care, and some hospitals even provide free treatment to patients who can't afford it. At least 2 of those 3 countries, Trump would call a 3rd world shit-hole. It also implies that everyone who makes bad life choices will suffer consequences for it. The whole point of nationalized healthcare is for POOR PEOPLE to have ACCESS to it. And while free speech may create limitations on expression, a change to the law usually doesn't result in *checks notes* DEATH.

[@timhertens8502]

Shouldn’t people be accountable for there bad decisions ? I’d say people that smoke, drink, and get fat, live incredibly unhealthy knowing the consequences should be the absolute least priority when it comes to healthcare. You they pay for it privately then it’s fine, publicly they are a societal problem. Seems like your the average American degenerate, you know we laugh at you worldwide cause of people like you ?

Demanding yes or no answers is the worst way to have a conversation, especially something as nuanced as public health. Example: Do you eat vegetables? Yes or no! Well yes but… “So you’re saying you’re a vegan!” Thanks Mr Chairman. 😂

When GOP senator Bill Cassidy questioned RFK jr on his plan to reform Medicaid and Medicare, RFK jr's answer was just a confused mess and then finally admitted he had no idea. That really wasn't good for a job interview.

The I checked up the Samoa story. He visited Samoa WAAAAY after the rates dropped very low. He seems to be the one saying the truth.

[@JennyVee-o5z]

RFK Jr. is telling the truth. The Samoa story is a lie made-up by corrupt Hawaiian Gov. Green and his band of thugs. And all the vile people against RFK Jr. just keep spouting it just to create suspicion in people who are not familiar with what's been going on.
