RFK Jr does not recommend flu vaccines for kids during

a very dangerous year for the flu.

Once again, I implore media outlets to stop saying these are CDC decisions.

These are changes being made unilaterally by RFK Jr. against the expert advice of CDC scientists.

I note that RFK Jr. no longer recommends flu vaccine for kids in the midst of a horrible influenza year.

They think there are too many people in the country and the population must be decreased. Take away Healthcare, vaccines and SNAP and watch the population dwindle.
