The Truth about RFK Jr

New peer-reviewed research suggests COVID vaccines worsen fertility

I'll address just one part of this Gish Gallop of conspiratorial drivel.
The study Mike links to is about the effect on rats, not people. The site, MDPI, is highly suspect- open-source publishing, with a poor track record of posting junk science and dodgy reports.
Studies of the impact of Covid vaccines on humans show no effect on fertility.

Does the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine damage the ovarian reserve? - PMC

To search whether or not the severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine affects the fertility of women at the 6th months by using AMH, which is an ovarian reserve test. Our study, designed ...

Studies will also show that the impact of facts on mikegriffith1 have no effect at all. I looked at one of his other links a while back, showed how it contradicted his claims, and invited him to comment. He continues to ignore that to this day. There is no doubt in my mind that my latest debunking will be likewise ignored.

Is all that waste and fraud (aka science) gone yet from the NIH? Did they recall Fauci's pension?

Federal authorities are investigating the decapitation of a dead, stranded dolphin, a violation of the Marine Mammals Protection Act.


Can RFK Jr. verify his whereabouts between April 16th and the 18th? Given bobby's 'history' I think it's at least worth looking into.

I mean, if we took a leaf out of the anti-vax books, we could attempt wild speculations and conjectures about him being responsible and that any and every witness who claims he had an alibi is being paid off etc... We would just be asking questions, right?

 

[arthwollipot]

But... but... he used Courier! That means it's totally credible, right?

 

[bruto]

So I suppose if big pharma can't sell us all that vaccine, they can get by selling it for rat control.

Cracks emerge in MAHA-MAGA alliance as RFK Jr. builds out his team of health ‘renegades’ (CNN, May 18, 2025)
The White House bristled over the way Kennedy’s team handled the measles outbreak in Texas and elsewhere this year. Meanwhile, Kennedy’s powerful principal deputy chief of staff, Stefanie Spear, has cracked down on the way agency officials communicate publicly, insisting that she personally review statements and reports.
As for Kennedy’s own leadership style, his oscillation between appeasing vaccine critics and placating public health officials has left people on both sides frustrated, multiple people familiar with the dynamics between the White House and HHS told CNN.
Cracks have also opened up within the MAHA movement itself.

At SBM David Gorski wrote, "First, as I have been predicting ever since RFK Jr. was nominated to be HHS Secretary, he will try to delicense specific vaccines, starting with COVID-19 vaccines. (The Wall Street Journal reported last week that HHS plans to bypass the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and stop recommending routine COVID-19 vaccination for children and pregnant people, almost certainly just the first step in this process.) Next, most likely he will move on to more vaccines, probably starting first with the human papilloma virus and hepatitis B vaccines, both long hated by antivaxxers in general and fundamentalist Christians in particular."

A few months ago the Arizona Public Health Association wrote, "Just days into his tenure as Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is already backtracking on ‘assurance’ he gave during his Senate confirmation. Despite pledging to uphold the integrity of the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices and not to interfere with childhood immunizations, Kennedy has already taken action to destabilize ACIP and evidence-based vaccine policy."

Paul Offit wrote, "Senator Warren: In the past two years, you’ve raked in $2.5 million from a law firm called Wisner Baum…You do commercials to encourage people to sign up with Wisner Baum to join lawsuits against vaccine makers. And for everyone who signs up, you personally get paid; and if they win their case, you get 10% of what they win. So, if you bring in someone who gets $10 million, you walk away with a million dollars…Will you agree that you also won’t take any compensation from any lawsuits against drug companies while you are Secretary and for four years afterwards?"

Vaccines and fertility, revisited:

New peer-reviewed research suggests COVID vaccines worsen fertility and mRNA jabs specifically can produce spike protein for up to eight months.

EXPOSED! John Campbell is WRONG about fertility after vaccination (Back to the Science on YouTube, May 19, 2025 - 15:34 min.)
Several well-designed studies show that COVID vaccination does not affect fertility, but that hasn’t stopped Dr John Campbell making a video claiming the opposite based on an absurd non-peer reviewed paper about birth rates in Czechia. Dr Susan Oliver and Cindy the dog explain why his claims are total bollocks.

ETA:

Grok on X, May 19, 2025
Observational studies, like a 2022 meta-analysis in Vaccine, show no significant fertility impact from mRNA or DNA vaccines, with similar pregnancy and sperm parameters in vaccinated vs. unvaccinated groups (e.g., clinical pregnancy rate: 0.45 vs. 0.47, p=0.31). These studies, while not proving causation, align with RCT data showing no fertility issues. Early RCTs, though pre-dating variants, remain relevant as updated vaccines show consistent safety. Long-term effects are less studied, and data from low-income countries are sparse, raising valid concerns. No evidence links vaccine components (e.g., lipid nanoparticles) to fertility harm, but ongoing research is needed to confirm long-term safety.

Musk appears to have an awful lot of problems with his attempts to make his AI pet go MAHA/MAGA.
It must be in league with the Radical Left Deep State!

You might want to signpost that this was a question asked to the brain worm by Senator Warren. When first reading your post, I thought it was an accusation in her direction.

What's the difference between John Campbell and Jill Biden?

Mrs Biden doesn't pretend her Doctorate of Education is a medical qualification. (Sorry, still smouldering over Donnie al-Assad's tweet in her direction).

As long as the only people that the vaccines are withheld from are the antivaxxers and fundamentalist Christians, and everyone else has free access to them, I'm good. They can do whatever without.

On Gulliver Foyle's wise suggestion, I would like to clarify my previous comment. Dr. Offit was quoting from Senator Elizabeth Warren's questioning of Secretary Kennedy during his appearance before a congressional committee. "Mr. Kennedy: I am not going to agree to not sue drug companies or anybody."

Yikes! So in addition to being a brain-eaten dope-addled conspiracy quack, he also utterly "misunderstands" the question he was asked! Not that this is a surprise, but I hope Warren lit into him and made it clear that he did not in any way answer her question.

There’s a difference between being an idiot like RFK Jr and saying you wish for innocent children to die to teach him a lesson.

ANd it isn't like he would even learn anything from killing his own grandkids, he would just double down on them being weak and unhealthy.

Paul Offit wrote, "In 2024, the United States suffered 35,000 cases of whooping cough and 10 deaths, the highest numbers in more than a decade. By April 2025, the CDC has reported 6,600 cases of pertussis, a number four times greater than last year. These increases are due in large part to declining immunization rates among kindergartners. Recently, two infants in Louisiana died from whooping cough, the first deaths from the disease in the state since 2018. RFK Jr.’s cuts in CDC funding for disease surveillance and immunization clinics will only worsen this problem." I have no reason to disagree with Dr. Offit that declining vaccination levels after the pandemic are a serious problem. Based on my reading of the duties of the Secretary of HHS, I would like to suggest that an important function of the nation's chief health official is to provide reliable information in general, therefore to disseminate the benefits of raising the levels of vaccination in particular.

I don't find there to be much wiggle room between extreme negligence just to put your grandkids in the national spotlight, and wishing death on them, but whatever.

No. Only you and autumn1971 seem to think killing children to prove a point is not disgusting.

I didn't say a ◊◊◊◊◊◊◊ thing either way. I pointed out the sheer stupidity of RFK and his disregard for his grandchildren. That's it. I didn't say the kids should die, I didn't say it would be a good thing, I didn't say anything else about it. So save your bull ◊◊◊◊.

RFK is a dumb ◊◊◊◊ that lets his kids swim in sewer laden rivers to prove a political point. That's the only point I was making. Nothing more, nothing less. I certainly wouldn't let my granddaughter swim in it.

I apologise for lumping you in with Autumn1971’s wish and misrepresenting your point.
