The number of those people massively outweigh the ones who didn't get it and condemned those who did.

No, and I thought those people were just as stupid.

Though I saw a lot less of that in my personal life.

Not doubting you were ill....confirmed by a ineffective PCR test probossibly

Good job you both fully obeyed 100% masking and 2 metre distances....

The first time I got it, I thought I was going to die. That's somewhat exaggerated, but I started to go in to shock the first night. We almost went to the ER. I started to come out of it after about midnight. The first time I got it I lost all taste and smell. What exactly do you think I had?

We did set up barriers in the Condo. I was surrounded by air filters.

We slept in separate rooms and I spent most of my time either in bed, or at my PC in the dining room.

RFK Jr.'s Handpicked Vaccine Panel Unsurprisingly Delivers Antivaccine Conclusions
The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices' vote ratifies unscientific claims linking a vaccine preservative to autism.

"For years, antivaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., who is now the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), has asserted that thimerosal, the ethyl mercury preservative in some vaccines, causes autism. Earlier this month, he fired all 17 members of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), the federal advisory committee that develops recommendations on the use of vaccines for civilians in the United States.

Kennedy has since replaced them with handpicked appointees who share his beliefs. On Thursday, the new members voted to confirm the secretary's unscientific claims about the illusory dangers of thimerosal by no longer recommending flu vaccines that contain the preservative. Multi-dose vaccine vials containing thimerosal comprise about 4 percent of all annual flu shots. Keep in mind that thimerosal was removed from most vaccines in 2001."

"Amusingly, on Tuesday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a new report reviewing numerous studies that conclusively found no connection between the minute quantity of thimerosal in vaccines and autism. That report mysteriously disappeared a day later from the CDC's website.

Instead, the new ACIP members were treated to a presentation from Lyn Redwood, Kennedy's fellow longtime antivaccine activist. After being posted online, a study Redwood cited about the alleged neurotoxicity of thimerosal was found to be nonexistent. (Gold-standard science indeed!) The false citation quietly disappeared. RFK, Jr. is now reportedly hiring Redwood to work in the CDC's vaccine safety office."

I don't know anything about the science of Thimeserol, but if they have removed it from most vaccines already, what's wrong with this? why not remove it from all. the removal might actually alleviate fears and cause more people to get vaccinated.

Newbeeee™ · June 27, 2025, 07:24 AM

At the end of Kennedy's speech the other day, they all backed mRNA as being safe.
Malone yesterday backed a new flu jab, made from moth cells (because when we "catch the flu, it's obviously made with moth's")....
And obviously the latest Ai nurses and Docs being pushed yada yada....

flu vaccines without thimerosal are already available.

right. so why does anybody care about this? the one thing I will say, I have got the flu shot every time my daughter has had a baby, because the flu is hard on babies. My doctor never asked me if I wanted the one with or without Thimerosal. I didn't know it was a thing. but why not just remove it all together? Is there some benefit to it that the other flu shot doesn't have? Yesterday you were talking about a no-brainer decision. this seems like one to me.

Because they're making false claims with no evidence to back it up, and it fuels the anti-vax movement. I haven't followed everything RFK very closely so I'm hoping that this isn't the norm? Reading Newbs post, if accurate, it doesn't look like it?

I know that this is going to lead to parallels between the Covid jab and RFK's anti-vax panel making misleading claims, but aren't they both bad?
