And the sentence continues..."- so when you are older you hopefully have enough immunity to not get severely ill."

Okay - I give up.

You need to understand: this administration is not merely destroying access to treatments, but the possibility that they might exist at all.

Snart tilknyttes en ny "ekspertgruppe" til ACIP. Hvilket Martin Kulldorff - Stabell Benn's ven og samarbejdspartner - allerede annoncerede i juni. Dette dokument er netop offentliggjort på CDC's website: www.cdc.gov/acip/downloa...

Stabell Benn-gruppens ideer formelig lyser ud af teksten.

"Most people will get one or two respiratory infections every year. In some ways, it's a good thing when you are a child or healthy adult.
"By getting exposed you are building up your immunity through natural infection…”

'The Survivor, Canetti’s leader, is a ruthless idolater of death..In his passion for survival he wages death all around him. Thus in a swift gesture Canetti re-writes the meaning of history’s great men: what distinguishes them from the paranoiac is only the power to exterminate their nightmares.'

Bari Weiss nurtured the anti-vaxx rhetoric that directly contributed to 6 million children developing Long Covid. Her rise to head of CBS News is deeply disturbing. The Free Press promotes the most toxic neoliberal, climate denying, MAGA adjacent trash you can find.

Trump govt further gutted the CDC last night, while continuing the govt shutdown instead of protecting healthcare for Americans. Areas affected last night include policy, comms, intelligence, infrastructure, global health & more. This is an attack on national security

Russ Vought wasn't lying when he said he wanted to inflict "trauma" on our public servants.

This is what he is doing...with RFK Jr.'s permission at HHS. Last night, they destroyed our nation's ability to track and report emerging diseases/potential pandemics, among other things.

This cannot stand.

They have fired the staff of the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report and 70 Epidemic Intelligence Service officers, who are disease detectives that respond to outbreaks around the world.

I cannot emphasize enough how dangerous it is to dismantle our disease surveillance infrastructure.

Important thread on the ideologies of a lot of tech bros, including of course Peter Theil.

There's a lot of social darwinism - survival of the fittest and letting weaker folks perish - and strong hints of feudalism in there.

Tech-investor Peter Thiel, best known for sponsoring J.D. Vance and co-founding Palantir, goes theology:

“Over the past month, Thiel has hosted a series of 4 lectures on the downtown waterfront of San Francisco philosophizing about who the antichrist could be and warning that Armageddon is coming.“

Pielke… Ridley… lab leak fanatics and climate deniers that attack ordinary scientists are often the same players.

Imagine the media would, instead of framing the science or scientists as the problem, rather wake up to the same old anti-science actors, tactics and agendas.
