Some excellent moves from RFK Jr right off the bat:

https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/cancelation-notices-saturday-february


The first bombshell exploded when the CDC canceled its moronic annual flu shot campaign. Boom number one. This year’s campaign was branded “wild to mild,” with dramatic images of lions next to kittens, suggesting that the shots “tame” a virus into a feline companion or something. Pulling the campaign was common sense— even corporate media reported the flu jab efficacy was languishing around placebo levels. What’s the use?

Second, Kennedy has directed the CDC to stop with the Orwellian “nudge” tactics, fearmongering, and manipulative psyops, and focus its vaccine communications instead on the science, meaning in this case informed consent. For Portland readers, that means telling people about the real risks and benefits— without terrifying tall tales or emotional manipulation, just the facts. More common sense. ...

Third, and maybe best of all, the CDC indefinitely suspended its 19-member, tri-annual “panel” of vaccine advisors, the so-called Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which during the pandemic rubber-stamped every new covid shot, whether for infants, pregnant women, or people who don’t want shots. ...

WaPo said that unnamed “experts” have unlocked a new fear. “Experts,” WaPo vaguely reported, “fear that Kennedy — who has asserted the panel fails to adequately test vaccines and be transparent about safety data — could use his authority to potentially steer vaccine skeptics to the advisory committee or to abolish the panel altogether.”

Not that! Not dastardly vaccine skeptics! Not on their precious committee!

I, for one, would be fine with abolishing the panel altogether. It’s obviously useless. The one time it did stand up to Biden’s CDC over infant covid jabs, the CDC approved the shots anyway, and the APIC subsequently re-voted in favor. Totally useless.

A comment from patriots.win:


Requiring Vaccine Jabs to get organ transplants is an evil that shouldn't be allowed. It's not "Informed Consent" if a person has to choose between consenting or death. Trump people get the word to RFK!

Could the covid dam be collapsing? A story in several headlines. First, Fox news, yesterday:

Multimillion-dollar Biden-era COVID-19 vax project halted by Trump's HHS
Stop-work order comes as 10,000 individuals were slated to begin clinical trials Monday

Kennedy’s HHS paused a $460 million dollar contract with a pharma company Vaxart, intended to develop a new oral covid vaccine. Kennedy stopped it for 90 days, to review the project and “decide on next steps.” It was a polite way of saying this thing stinks, and we’re not rushing forward.

Second, the Yale study I covered in yesterday’s C&C reached the New York Times yesterday. Late, perhaps, but still:

Scientists Describe Rare Syndrome Following Covid Vaccinations
In a small study, patients with the syndrome were more likely to
experience reactivation of Epstein-Barr virus and high levels of a
coronavirus protein.

It’s their first real article on vaccine injuries since May of last year. “Some people with this syndrome,” the Times reports, “appear to show distinct biological changes—among them differences in immune cells, reawakening of a dormant virus called Epstein-Barr, and the persistence of a coronavirus protein in their blood.”

Third, the Atlantic ran the latest conspiracy-theory-confirming piece on Monday:

COVID Broke the Rules of Virus Evolution
Why did this coronavirus change faster than scientists expected?

At the outset of the pandemic, scientists assured us that “the virus that caused COVID mutates rather slowly.” That claim was essential to the vaccine push. Now, The Atlantic casually admitted, “what actually happened was that SARS-CoV-2 began mutating quickly.”

The rest of the article was hogwash, describing in terrific detail an unconfirmed theory blaming immune-compromised people for “harboring” the virus where it mutates uncontrollably. Apparently, for an undisclosed reason, this potential scenario was simply impossible for scientists to predict.

Unstated in the article: this reflects very badly on the vaccines.

The Yale study showed that the vaccines create immune-compromised people. If The Atlantic’s theory is right, then the vaccines directly contributed to the rapid mutation problem. And if that weren’t enough, there’s a much darker possibility lurking: that covid was designed to evade vaccines by mutating quickly. Of course, common coronaviruses (like the cold) mutate rapidly too, so the scientific community’s early blunder was rather… perplexing.

I have no working hypothesis yet. But two positive developments stand out: first, the media deep freeze on negative vaccine stories may be over. It’s almost like nobody’s in control of the narrative anymore. Second, Kennedy’s HHS is getting after it.

Secretary Kennedy,

All mRNA injections marketed as COVID vaccines today are Emergency Use Authorized (EUA) Military Countermeasures. The EUA pathway is used only when the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services declares an emergency and issues a PREP Act declaration.

Section 564 of the FD&C Act exempts medical countermeasures from the pharmaceutical regulatory compliance or from the informed consent requirements for the duration of the PREP Act declaration of emergency.

While the manufacturers may choose and FDA may ask to undertake some of the activities typically expected from an investigational clinical trial and manufacturing validation process, none of the typical pharmaceutical regulatory standards are applicable in an enforceable way. If there is no enforcement of the law, it’s as if the law does not exist.

Misrepresentations of safety, efficacy or contents of EUA products are allowed by federal law. Thus, claims provided by the federal health authorities or manufacturers cannot be considered reliable sources of information.

When these products are pushed onto unsuspecting consumers, claims about safety, efficacy or contents of these products are based solely on the HHS Secretary’s opinion, which requires no supporting scientific evidence. Today 3 mRNA shots are listed on the CDC Childhood Vaccination Schedule to be given to 9-month old infants.

Secretary Kennedy, are we supposed to think that it is now YOUR opinion that they are safe and effective for babies? I do not believe that, knowing what you know about mRNA injections, you can honestly believe this yourself.

Current PREP Act emergency declaration for COVID was extended by the previous administration by Xavier Becerra to last until December 31, 2029! https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2024-29108.pdf

Real emergencies do not last decades simply based on the opinion of a single public health official. There is no real emergency for COVID in the United Sates or worldwide as you are well aware.

Continued PREP Act declarations, therefore, defy the observed reality and common sense, and represents a misuse and abuse of the federal law which was intended for declaring short-term emergencies in severe situations such as war or acts of terrorism. This law also did not envision shipping of billions of doses of medical products legally allowed to be adulterated and misbranded. Yet, this is precisely what is transpiring under the current PREP Act declaration today.

By keeping the PREP Act declaration in place, the current administration continues to contrive a non-existing emergency. This contrivance serves only the interests of pharmaceutical companies and those institutions that still mandate the shots, shielding them from liability for deaths and injuries caused by the falsely promoted inherently unsafe products.

Clearly, this contrivance does not serve the interests of the public at all. The continued disregard of the victims of the COVID shots under the thorough liability shield of the PREP Act abuses the federal law and destroys any remaining shreds of the public trust in the government health authorities.

These products pose severe risk of harm and death to the public due to the absence of any enforceable pharmaceutical regulations.

The FDA and manufacturers falsely claim that these products are fully approved for age 12 and older as prophylactic vaccines. However, once someone is injured by these vaccines and seeks compensation for their injuries, they are informed that the products are not legally vaccines but countermeasures, and the only avenue available to them is the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program.

To date this program has denied almost all claims and paid only a few thousand dollars to a handful of victims, making a mockery of them and the unbearable toll of their permanently destroyed health. During your Congressional confirmation hearings you said that a healthy person has a thousand dreams while a sick person has only one dream. Were you sincere about helping the COVID vaccine victims?

Secretary Kennedy, I respectfully ask you to:

- Please use your authority to immediately terminate the PREP Act emergency declaration for COVID pandemic, as there is no such emergency in reality.

- Please also investigate the misuse and abuse of the federal law utilized in the so-called "pandemic response" and countermeasures that resulted in the greatest human tragedy in recorded history and also destroyed public trust in the government health agencies.

Said it before a mandate is not law. If it's not law you just lie and forge and that's not illegal. Pretty simple. I wasn't working for anyone at the time, but I would have forged it.

Buy a house and ask if the previous owner had AIDS and see how fast your ass would get sued. They scared people into the "mandate" language. No one is willing to sue their employer. That's a 6 figure bill and you probably would have lost your job. So people should have just faked it. You can't just call and ask for medical records of an employee. Media is the mafia doing big pharma work. That's all this was. So I cut everything off.

Kennedy just sent 2,000 MMR vaxx doses to TX.

Yes, the same MMR vaxx he said makes kids autistic.
16   Patrick   2025 Mar 4, 11:07am  

https://www.coffeeandcovid.com/p/far-away-tuesday-march-4-2025-c-and


You didn’t think it would be that easy, did you? The Hill ran an enervating story yesterday headlined, “Kennedy sends mixed vaccine messages amid Texas measles outbreak.” The MAHA movement, enjoying a well-deserved run of astonishing good fortune, faced a setback this week, and that setback took the form of a pharma lobby, butt-kissing editorial that RFKjr published in, of all places, Fox News.




It didn’t start that way. The Hill explained that Kennedy “initially downplayed the outbreak in Texas during a Cabinet meeting with President Trump last week, saying it was ‘not unusual’ and falsely claimed that many people hospitalized were there ‘mainly for quarantine.’”

Not only that, but as the Hill correctly reported, “Kennedy has a long history of disparaging the MMR vaccine. He has … repeatedly linked it to rising autism rates and questioned its safety.” So far, so good.

But RFK’s Sunday op-ed sang a different, discordant tune. What a difference a week can make in 2025. Kennedy — or was it Kennedy? — disgracefully opined that, “Vaccines not only protect individual children from measles, but also contribute to community immunity, protecting those who are unable to be vaccinated due to medical reasons.”

Haha, “community immunity.” Good one. That, my friends, is the stale term “herd immunity,” but rewrapped in NewSpeak to conceal that they think we’re just a pack of dumb farm animals.

The sing-songy slogan “community immunity” was a dog whistle to mandatory jabbers everywhere.

All that said, I’ll scrape up my shattered optimism to defend Kennedy and offer a theory for the longtime vaccine critic’s warp-speed about-face. In my defense, nobody else has a better theory.

There were two subtle signals. First, and maybe most promising, the op-ed was not written in RFK’s voice. I, and many of you, have read Kennedy for years. The op-ed’s robotic, hyper-clinical language did not sound like him at all. I rather suspect that he got an odious assignment and subbed it out to a ghostwriter.

Second —maybe I am reading too much into this— his op-ed started with the sentence, “As the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, I am deeply concerned about the recent measles outbreak.” It sounded like a subtle sort of disclaimer. In other words, Kennedy wasn’t writing for himself. He was writing as HHS Secretary. It was his official duty.

The trouble began earlier, with corporate media’s hyperbolic “measles outbreak” story, which crescendoed last week following tragic news of the death of “a school-age child.” One who, I am confident, had multiple co-morbidities and probably died with measles, not from measles, but they won’t say. Patient privacy.

The cumulative media pressure on Kennedy was enormous. After all, he’d just canceled the annual influenza vaccine committee. He was vulnerable to attack— and so the Deep State struck. Yesterday, Politico reported a story headlined, “Top HHS spokesperson quits after clashing with RFK Jr.

On Friday, Thomas Corry, Kennedy’s brand-new Public Affairs Director, “abruptly quit after clashing with Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and his close aides over their management of the agency amid a growing measles outbreak.”

An anonymous HHS leaker blabbed to the Hill that Corry was “the one adult in the room that I saw, unfortunately.”

Two days after Corry rage-quit, Kennedy published his pro-MMR editorial. The next day, yesterday, his principal deputy chief of staff and long-time confidante, Stefanie Spear, sent a statement calling the measles outbreak “a top priority for Secretary Kennedy.”

Obviously, there is a battle raging within HHS, fueled by a media firestorm in the form of a giant burning wicker child. Kennedy made a bad choice in picking Corry. (We can’t even judge that too harshly; for all we know, he was forced to agree to Corry as one of many promises he made to survive Senate confirmation.)

As we discussed yesterday, the Democrats are acting like roadkill, salivating over the first Trump Administration misstep, to launch a narrative counterattack aimed at sanding the Agenda’s machine. Looking at all these facts, it seems the Trump Team maybe reached the difficult conclusion that discretion is the better part of valor. They extracted the canines from the rabid measles narrative before it could strap on its covid face mask.

Switching metaphors, chess sometimes requires sacrificing a piece. On Sunday, Kennedy may have strategically sacrificed a pawnish op-ed, a strategic compromise to quell the swelling counterattack that could have escaped HHS and infected the rest of Trump’s plans.

Either way, it is far too soon to throw the unvaccinated baby out with the pharmaceutical bathwater. Talk, as they say, is cheap. The Administration has plenty of political capital to spend. Perhaps we should hold fire and wait to see what the new Secretary does.


Very disappointing.

Some arguments that Kennedy is not yet completely corrupted:

https://jennasside.rocks/p/rfk-jr-completely-flip-flops-on-vaccines


Now let’s look at the much juicer things-to-love list from Kennedy’s opinion piece:

“As healthcare providers, community leaders, and policymakers, we have a shared responsibility to protect public health. This includes ensuring that accurate information about vaccine safety and efficacy is disseminated.” Did our HHS Secretary just imply that past information about vaccine safety may not have been accurate? Why, I think he did!

“It is also our responsibility to provide up-to-date guidance on available therapeutic medications. While there is no approved antiviral for those who may be infected, CDC has recently updated their recommendation supporting administration of vitamin A under the supervision of a physician for those with mild, moderate, and severe infection. Studies have found that vitamin A can dramatically reduce measles mortality.” The Centers for Dastardly Corruption are recommending a vitamin treatment? Might this be a first?

“Tens of thousands died with, or of, measles annually in 19th Century America. By 1960—before the vaccine’s introduction—improvements in sanitation and nutrition had eliminated 98% of measles deaths.” In case that one slipped by you, the nation’s top public health official just pointed out that the measles vaccine was and is not the game-changing, lifesaving miracle it has historically been made out to be.

“Good nutrition remains a best defense against most chronic and infectious illnesses. Vitamins A, C, and D, and foods rich in vitamins B12, C, and E should be part of a balanced diet.” Hold the rotary phone! We have the power to increase our own immunity without a jabbidy-jab-jab? You don’t say!

“The decision to vaccinate is a personal one.” Not a forced one or even one you have to justify. It’s personal—meaning it’s entirely up to the person making it and not a matter of public debate.

Sec. Kennedy, "Radical Transparency" demands answers about the alleged Texas measles fatality

The recent report of an alleged measles death in Texas has been accompanied by almost no information to allow the public to understand the circumstances that may have led to the child's passing. COVID has taught anyone paying attention that public health authorities routinely misrepresent, omit, fabricate, or simply lie about enormously important facts, and those lies always support the methods advocated by the public health authorities. Deaths caused by gun shot wounds, automobile accidents and chronic diseases were attributed to COVID to amplify the fear needed to justify draconian policies, and to cash-in on substantial federal bonuses offered for COVID deaths. Public health's affinity for lying has led to an enormous collapse in trust in those institutions reflected in poll after poll.

Measles outbreaks have also been used as a pretext in California and New York to justify eliminating parental choice over which vaccines are given to their children, and right now Hawaii Governor Josh Green MD is pushing through a bill at full speed to repeal Hawaii's religious exemption. So skepticism about politically significant public health events are well warranted.

RFK Jr. moves to eliminate public comment on HHS decisions; In notice to Federal Register, health agency says public participation is not needed in many decisions; HHS would rescind its longtime practice of giving members of the public a chance to comment on the agency’s plans. It is set to be formally published in the register; I do not understand this decision; how does the public benefit?

Up in the PRNY, western NY division, they're selling special Passover Coke for the Jews in anticipation of Passover/Easter. This is 50 cents more than regular Coke per 2 liter, but it has sugar, not HFCS for sweeteners, and reduced preservatives.

This is a textbook example of the tyranny of the minority, and a lesson to those who would create a parallel society. You have to go all the way, and publicly shame anyone who opposes your agenda, whether the opposition is naive or malicious - all are punished disproportionately to make examples.

Unless those who oppose globohomo are willing to go the same extremes, their efforts will fail. Bud Light boycotts were a start, but it's going to take a lot more by more than 50% of the US population to effect meaningful change.

Secretary Kennedy has obviously been a very busy boy. And he’s clearly no sentimentalist. Astonishingly, NPR ran yesterday’s most accurate HHS headline. To wit: “The Trump administration restructures federal health agencies, cuts 20,000 jobs.” Boom.

Let’s pause a moment. I’d like to speak directly to all the people who, like me, fumed during the pandemic’s deadly bureaucratic excesses. We passionately longed for mass firings at the public health agencies. We wished upon a star that thousands would get pink slips for what they did. But we never allowed ourselves to hope, not really, because it was too much to hope for. Because, honestly, when has anyone in government ever been accountable for anything?

Welp, be of great cheer. Today is our day. It’s finally here! Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., strode into the Department of Health and Human Services like a multi-armed spanking robot set on ‘high.’ Yesterday, HHS announced a total downsizing of 20,000 jobs, reducing headcount from 82,000 to 62,000. Not only that, but Kennedy is slashing the total number of divisions within HHS practically in half, evaporating the health behemoth to 15 divisions from 28 (it had been happily shooting for 30).

It was truly an astonishing comeuppance for the so-called “health” agency, but it was not just that. Secretary Kennedy explained, “We aren't just reducing bureaucratic sprawl. We are realigning the organization with its core mission and our new priorities in reversing the chronic disease epidemic.” He plans to do more with less. He continued, “This Department will do more –a lot more– at a lower cost to the taxpayer.” ...

Seriously, being forced to wear a hospital mask at Publix made us feel like how the North Koreans must feel whenever their porky Dictator-de-jeur orders everybody to clap for an hour straight. Faster! Now do it standing on one leg! Even faster! Now stick your tongues out! Guards! Kill that one! And that one!

Anyway. Dear health agency employees, I am sure some of you are hardworking, honest folks who did your best. But you should have spoken up. Now you face the spanking robot. Bend over.

Finally, enjoy yesterday’s headline from Fierce Healthcare: “CDC, DOGE claw back $11 billion in COVID-19 grants nationwide as agency roots out 'censorship' contracts.”

It’s so much better than that. The article reported that a new directive “went out to HHS employees the morning of March 26, telling them to urgently identify contracts that may lead to censorship or cause someone to hold certain ideas more than others. Examples given included COVID-19 vaccine usage, masking and education and outreach advertisements.”

“Hold certain ideas more than others.” In other words, and for example, just one small slice canceled all studies on vaccine hesitancy, and similar sorts of thought control.

Put simply, the government spent billions making sure we thought the “right” thoughts about masking, vaccines, and school closures. Now the spanking robot is cleaning HHS’s house.


Woot! Excellent move. I've argued for this on my platform:

Had some today with our breakfast on the biscuits this morning. I hope to see more of this.
But here's the thing, there wasn't some smug condescending upcharge for not getting the extra shit that is bad for you.
That's what I never got about the Organic movement, it was coddled into some boutique elitist food isle. Rather than any real movement to demand that all food be grown that way.

Now the Liberals loath RFK Jr. after all the shit talking about bad food, while they justified their 500% Wholefoods grocery receipt markup. Liberals are just so full of shit. It was never about eating healthy, nor do they give a good greasy grimmy fuck about the quality of food the poor and fat people eat. They just want to feel privileged paying $300 for $50 worth of groceries.

That recycled bullshit comes from one unscientific source, without any data to support it at all. I mean how in the fuck are they going sell $10 pint of Strawberries when assholes like me are buying them at 3 for $7?

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) has released its annual “Dirty Dozen” list, ranking the pesticide residue levels of fruits and vegetables.

now there's a very Conservative sounding group huh? I Googled your quoted portion and every instance came up with the same reference.
I even went to the original article and it read like one of those CNN "Who's the best guitarists" lists. Just listing them without naming the pesticide found, the amount, any variations from region to region. Now surely in my 56 years of living on this green earth, I have become smart enough to know that not every region and every farmer is using the same exact pesticide for the same crops. The list then goes on to list practically every fresh produce anyone would buy, vs canned, frozen or processed somehow. It's a love letter to Wholefoods and the Organic criminal enterprise.

Are you going to eat that....(TPB grabbing the scrumptious strawberry off MCM's plate, and popping it in his mouth)
