If parents and doctors aren't getting in trouble for killing their kids with quack drugs, why are they getting in trouble for giving real medication when their "child" is still in the womb?
Doctors aren't giving the kids the Vitamin A, doctors are sounding the alarm that children are coming in with Vitamin A poisoning.
Sounds like a quick call to CPS is in order, if they are still around and haven't been dumped by dumpy.
Why are these people ok with isolated vitamin supplements (which are not natural), but not ok with a vaccine? I don't understand the line they draw.
Because opinion is more important than fact, and choice is more important than logic.
They're contrarians and conspiracists. They will go with whatever the established authorities recommend against.
Add in just a pinch of traditionalists who think herbal supplements are better than modern medicine and that the human body is composed of 7 ancient energies capable of healing all wounds if you eat right, or some bullshit.

Because they are operating on propaganda, not logic.
"I don't know what's in the vaccine" is the dumbest excuse too. The information is available, and if you don't trust the information, why would trust the label that tells you those pills are vitamin A. They could put anything in that pill with Vitamin A.
RFK is so ridiculously stupid.
It's time to bring RFK to schools with measles outbreaks. Let him personally reassure people that the vaccine is a choice.
What, you're worried about catching measles? Why the fuck would you?

Experts warn his messaging confuses parents and downplays the proven protection of the MMR vaccine
Oh look RFK is getting people nearly killed. Who could have seen this coming?
More importantly, look how no one is getting into trouble for endangering children.
Republicans only care about children that aren't born (i.e. aren't children) yet.
Republicans have never been 'pro-life', only pro-birth.
Pre-natal? They care so, so much!
Pre-school? You're fucked (metaphorically and, depending on the republican, possibly literally - just ask ol' Dennis)

Can we just quarantine the entire state? Or just… I don’t know-
Push it out into the ocean?
There's a lot of landmass between Texas and the ocean but you know what, I'm on board.
Wonder if he could be sued for practicing medicine without a license ?
Any parent taking what RFK Jr says as fact is neglecting their child.
We need to make suing government employees that make decisions easier. Things like discrimination for anyone that makes determinations for program eligibility, etc.
And definitely cabinet positions when decisions clearly are in opposition to available research and lead directly to outcomes like this, where a direct correlation is not only obvious but even easily provable in court.
Blanket Immunity to cover for incompetent government employees is complete bullshit and doesn't serve the interests of the nation or it's citizens at all.
