I made this comment on another substack and I’ll repost it here because I didn’t think it was THAT BAD:
I found the article very positive in that it 1--said vaccinating was a PERSONAL CHOICE not MANDATORY, 2--hinted that one needn't follow the insane childhood guidelines 3--stated that VITAMIN A and healthy nutritious food was the best tools to fight any infectious outbreak. It read VERY starkly differently to me from the fear porn normally touted by this agency with an urgent need to vaccinate everyone and making it mandatory etc etc. It also never once said vaccines cured measles but that it had already greatly declined and that herd immunity was helpful towards our overall low rates.
Baby steps people. Baby steps. If he goes scorched earth they’ll do a JFk/RFK on him. Would I like to see the negative info that’s withheld from most eyes? Absolutely. But you can’t just burn it down and there’s nothing wrong with giving people all the information and letting them decide. There wasn’t a single peep about forced vaccinations which is a HUGE IMPROVEMENT.
And forcing or not allowing vaccines would be continuing the politicization of medicine and damage the trust even more. Personally I ffought for choice during COVID vax- and continue to fight personal choice - not just what I think is the better choice. I do want to know wth RFK is going to do about vaccines and it chickens though!!
I agree totally. RFK Jr. is our best hope right now and he has already taken some steps in the positive direction. If he goes too fast the mob will come for him and this will possibly torpedo anything else he plans. I am willing to see him taking “baby steps” at first as the horrible stuff of Big Pharma oozes out.
Agree. What is continually lacking from all the medical dialog is boosting the immune system of all humans through nutritional sources and supplementation. It is ignored because it doesn't support and grow our bloated medical system for profit.
The real problem is the hysteria that's been created over measles over the years to fit their vaccine agenda. Other than a high temperature for a while it's a nothing burger. I don't know any kid I went to school with that didn't get it and can't remember anyone suffering any lasting effects after having it. Kennedy's over reaction is worrying for all the reasons you point out.
Two students died in my small school back in the day. Pneumonia and encephalitis. Note that this death was the “first measles-related fatality in the United States in over a decade.” There have been only 146 reported cases. Hopefully this does not imply a significant revision of the measles CFR due to the c-shot effects on children’s immune systems. Time will tell. Still a “no” from me, but the anti-vaxxers freaking out about RFK Jr’s (measured and appropriate for now) response is as troubling to me as the denial from the other side.
Dr Chris Raynor just put out a good video on measles on YouTube. It does in fact kill people. Infants are especially at risk. You can develop fatal encephalopathy years later if there is persistent asymptomatic spinal cord infection. And measles are extremely contagious. He did a good job explaning how it kills. And yet he still didn't push a vaccine agenda. Presented info so viewers can decide.
The statistics always talks about relative risk 97% effective etc,
1) about 40% of North American adults are born before 1963 and almost the entire cohort had measels as a child so their risk is statistically zero of getting measels.
2) Absolute risk of contracting measles: 0.044 per 100,000 based on 164 cases out of the entire North American population
3) Risk of serious vaccine adverse event: up to 6 per 100,000
The numbers make absolutely no sense for taking a MMR vaccine PERIOD!
There is the shedding issue to be considered. Does anyone have data on the person to person transmissibility of the vax stain? I’m aware of shedding from the recently vaxxed, but supposedly, that does not spread further. IDK.
Update from Gained County Texas. Child who died was taken to hospital for treatment of respiratory distress secondary to RSV and pneumonia. Hospital vaccinated child with MMR then tested patient for measles which subsequently tested positive for measles. Child was denied standard of care respiratory intervention and later died. Cause of death reported by hospital and media was Measles.
I saw this yesterday and hoped it was done by an imposter. Dr. Judy Mikovits who has long supported RFK Jr has been sounding the alarm on the MMRv shots for years. This just does not make sense. Is he afraid now, being pressured or bought off? Very confusing and worrisome.
Y’all are ignoring the depressed immunity from the c shots. Hopefully not widespread, but it must be the parents’ choice.
Note that this death was the “first measles-related fatality in the United States in over a decade.” There have been only 146 reported cases. Hopefully this does not imply a significant revision of the measles CFR in a post-jab world. Time will tell.
It's not just suppressed immunity from the C.shots, it's a heavy toxic burden we all carry, and the young and the elderly are most at risk.The toxic mix they are spraying alone filters down a dangerous stew of graphene, barium, aluminum, etc. I can imagine the 10 yr. gap means 10 yrs. of an increased toxic load. No wonder people's immunity has been compromised.
Please reread his response in the context of how we all felt during the recent “no choice” era. Force will not convince anyone. Exposure of data will, eventually.
Read his whole op-ed. He said the shot would be available for those who *wanted* it. And then he proceeds to talk about the importance of vitamins, diet, etc. and getting away from vaccines.
I agree with those here that say RFK Jr. needs to take a measured approach.
A vast majority of population still believes that vaccines are good and necessary
for the survival of humanity. This measles 'outbreak' is an obvious deep state psyop to reduce
RFK's credibility. But he knows how the game is played, he has to walk a fine line to remain relevant. It seems like his strategy is to keep slipping facts into the conversation while simultaneously saying what the brainwashed masses want to hear.
This might be an overreaction, 2nd smartest. Kennedy has to walk a fine line btw long term goals and immediate emergency responses. Right now, he's giving people options. Can you imagine if he was 'withholding' these vaccines ?? It would be devastating for him. (Of course he knows the truth about MMR). We all need to stay patient with this topic- it's a hot one
I hope everyone will read RFK Jr.’s op-ed and not just the sound bites selected in this article. It includes much important information. For example:
“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. 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.”
He mentions speaking with the dead boy’s parents, so he will have learned the details of his situation - privacy and confidentiality prevent him from sharing.
Exactly, he doesn't need to educate his followers, he's talking to the propagandized population, and he educated them on several points...the vaxxed can still get measles, that most measled deaths had dwindled before the vax came out, due to better hygience/sanitation, and also that it's often linked to vitamin A deficiency.
If he came out swinging they would just have ignored him like they have in the past. He's a lawyer, strategy is his well-honed weapon.
He ran his campaign on unity. We shouldn't be surprised by this.
However, I thank 2nd for this article, very informative, I will share.
I’m not. I think his response was measured and appropriate. It’s way too early to determine the impact of the C shot suppression on immune systems.

It's a long game he has to play here, if you know anything at all about psyops
Nobody will be murdered. They are doing exactly what is expected of them for the globalist program. It all looks good for now, but in the end it will serve a centralized government with superior control and monitoring of humans, where AI calls the shots. RFK also called anti-vaccines an act of 'anti-semitism'. Explain that one!
I imagine that I will be alone in my defense of RFK Jr’s position on the measles outbreak, but consider this: We have witnessed the increase in previously rare and polymicrobial infections since the roll out of the C shots. At this time, no one knows for sure how the C shot-induced immune problems will intersect with the measles virus. It could be significant. The reported death does appear to be due to the measles (I was initially skeptical), and the risks of encephalitis and other sequelae are not inconsequential. RFK Jr promised not to take away vaccines from those who want them, and he is standing by his word. Crucial for credibility going forward. His response to this first public challenge was measured and balanced. Even those of us who have become NWIH vaxxers should acknowledge that the shots significantly lower the risk of contracting measles. Whether there is a net benefit, especially in a post jabbed world, remains to be seen. It must be the parents’ choice.

With a "positive" "test" for measles, but dying of unrelated illnesses?
Unless RFK, Jr., has info we don't about this particular case, his coming out any saying 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 positive about injections -- for measles or anything else -- causes me and lots of others grave concern.
Tetanus and rabies are two where the lifetime benefit may outweigh the risk. (Of course, if there is no manipulation and the stand alone tetanus vaccine is made available again. Lots of “ifs.”) Tetanus is ubiquitous in our environment, and you have to balance a lifetime of worry over the relatively small risk of the shot. Tetanus is anaerobic, and tetanus prone wounds are exactly the ones hardest to adequately clean. Think a 'through and through' nail to the foot, or severe burns with eschar. Disease rates are artificially low because our initial series probably does provide immunity for life; saw a couple cases from Mexico many years back; nasty disease; both died. That said, the current “give for every scratch” and “give to children who are at zero risk of the disease” mentality is ludicrous. The rabies shots are also overused IMO.
Actually, not quite. It takes time for the antibodies to develop, so effectiveness is not ensured. It is given at the time of a tetanus prone wound, but paired with tetanus immune globulin, that has its own issues.
Tetanus is ubiquitous in our environment, and you have to balance a lifetime of worry over the small risk of the shots. Tetanus is anaerobic, and tetanus prone wounds are exactly the ones hardest to adequately clean. Think a 'through and through' nail to the foot, or severe burns with eschar. Most importantly, disease rates are artificially low because our initial series probably does provide immunity for life; saw a couple cases from Mexico many years back; nasty disease; both died.
Tetanus shots typically contain aluminum adjuvants such as aluminum phosphate or aluminum hydroxide to enhance the immune response to the vaccine.
These adjuvants help the vaccine to be more effective by allowing for lesser quantities of the vaccine and fewer doses.
Additionally, some combination vaccines that include tetanus, such as DTaP and Tdap, may also contain antigens from Bordetella pertussis, which act as an effective adjuvant.
The aP component is worse than useless; seems to confer a lifetime increased susceptibility to the actual disease, and may create an asymptomatic carrier state. And you probably know, the P was killing kids;
that’s why DPT was stopped and TDaP started. Big mistake imo.
Warning? Geez. I though we had freedom of speech in the USA.
Don’t bother. I won’t comment again. If a substack cannot tolerate a difference of opinion, it’s not worth my time anyway. BTW, I’m firmly anti-vax except for these two possibilities, and only because I’ve seen first hand the ravages of these diseases. Have you? Over and out.
Outstanding article! I saw those things in like 2010ish and have been unable to find them. Seems anything that points to vaccines *not* being the superhero, Big Pharma, FDA and CDC get it buried.
I could find no research on measles severity and mortality in relation to circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels. However, like every other disease, measles would be less severe and so transmit less (fewer virus particles shed) the better the immune system works. It can only function well with about 50 ng/mL (125 nmol/L = 1 part in 20,000,000 by mass) or more circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D, while many people (except in summer and/or for those who supplement vitamin D3 properly) have half or less of this level.
UK measles seasonality is high in winter-spring and low in summer autumn: Fig 1 in https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.09664. This would be caused, in large part, by variations in circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D (made in the liver from ingested or UV-B -> skin produced vitamin D3, and which is measured in "vitamin D" blood tests), due to UV-B flux in winter being so low compared to that in summer.
Please see the research cited and discussed at my long web page on the vitamin D compounds, primarily 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and the immune system: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/00-evi/. There, you will find peer-reviewed research articles which clearly show that the immune system can only work properly, at least against the bacterial pathogens which cause post-operative infections, if the level of circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D is 50 ng/mL. The same is likely true of immune responses to cancer and both viral and fungal infections.
Without proper vitamin D3 supplementation - in quantities which while small, are 5 to 10 times those recommended by governments and many doctors - and without recent high level ultraviolet B exposure of ideally white skin, most people have 25 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) or less circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Some have only one tenth - especially the elderly and/or those with dark or black skin who are living far from the equator.
This page begins with recommendations from New Jersey based Professor of Medicine, Sunil Wimalawansa on the average daily supplemental intake quantities of vitamin D3 which will attain least 50 ng/mL circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D, over several months, without the need for blood tests or medical monitoring:
70 to 90 IU / kg body weight for those not suffering from obesity (BMI < 30).
100 to 130 IU / kg body weight for obesity I & II (BMI 30 to 39).
140 to 180 IU / kg body weight for obesity III (BMI > 39).
For 70 kg (154 lb) body weight without obesity, this is about 0.125 milligrams (125 micrograms 5000 IU) a day. This takes several months to attain the desired > 50 ng/mL circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D. This is 8 or more times what most governments recommend. "5000 IU" a day sounds like a lot, but it is a gram every 22 years - and pharma-grade vitamin D costs about USD$2.50 a gram ex-factory.
Thank you for the comment. I learned a lot. My son had a Vit D level of 14 in Dec 2019 when had a seizure. He is now on Keppra and Vimpat and I always wondered did Covid cause his Epilepsy.

Admire your reserve. I don't trust him but, am willing to first observe. If a single mention, EVER, of anything mandatory, am bolting. ;-)
Read Dr. Robert Malone's Substack article from today (March 5) on this subject. Great article about RFK Jr.
Agreed. It is desirable to just want a hammer, but that is not how it works

The numbers make absolutely no sense for taking a MMR vaccine PERIOD!
Gaines County measle outbreak is most likely tied to an advertised voluntarily free measles vaccination program.
Yeah, I would put a $20 bet down that they just “happened” to have an unattenuated batch of MMR jabs to infect the kids at the border schools.
This is what I fear. 😩
Studies in the linked article specifically addressed shedding. Reverse transcriptase testing can identify whether virus is wild or vaccine,
There is the shedding issue to be considered. Does anyone have data on the person to person transmissibility of the vax stain? I’m aware of shedding from the recently vaxxed, but supposedly, that does not spread further. IDK.
Lies and more lies. Patient was killed by denial of respiratory intervention and MMR vaccine administration.
Update from Gained County Texas. Child who died was taken to hospital for treatment of respiratory distress secondary to RSV and pneumonia. Hospital vaccinated child with MMR then tested patient for measles which subsequently tested positive for measles. Child was denied standard of care respiratory intervention and later died.

He’s already bought off.
People must stop being naive and gullible.

I agree Fred! Unfortunately, so many people do not want to face reality. People must be OPEN to information and evidence.
You can lead a horse to water…
That's what I'm afraid of.

I am disappointed with RFK Jr. Okay, it’s personal choice. However, we should know more about the case in order to make an informed, personal choice.
I guess if there isn’t as much information as a person is comfortable with then don’t do it.
No, no, no! RFK will make major changes in due time. Good things take time to be accomplished properly. 🙂
I hope everyone will read RFK Jr.’s op-ed and not just the sound bites selected in this article. It includes much important information. For example:

Something never discussed is that single-antigen measles vaccine is not available. Measles is only available in these combination vaccines:
Measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR), or
Measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella (MMRV).
"...measles-related..." WITAF does that mean?
With a "positive" "test" for measles, but dying of unrelated illnesses?
Unless RFK, Jr., has info we don't about this particular case, his coming out any saying 𝒂𝒏𝒚𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 positive about injections -- for measles or anything else -- causes me and lots of others grave concern.
And rightly so.
FIRST find out what immigrant brought it in
SECOND then go back to giving it as a SINGLE shot.
Absolutely! Having single shots is essential for vaxxed-unvaxxed studies. May I suggest stand alone tetanus?
No you may not.
I already exposed the tetanus shot as being 100% ineffective as per research studies.
Go away with your bs vaccine shilling.
I'd like to read this, is it still available? Thank you.
Are insults really necessary? If you’re really the “smartest,” you’d know that your readers are anti-vax.
Yes. Stand alone tetanus, so that it can be avoided like the plague!
Tetanus and rabies are two where the lifetime benefit may outweigh the risk. (Of course, if there is no manipulation and the stand alone tetanus vaccine is made available again. Lots of “ifs.”) Tetanus is ubiquitous in our environment, and you have to balance a lifetime of worry over the relatively small risk of the shot.

That said, the current “give for every scratch” and “give to children who are at zero risk of the disease” mentality is ludicrous. The rabies shots are also overused IMO.
WRONG.
I wrote about this.
Stop pushing this nonsense here.
Seriously.
Farm workers should have an un-manipulated version available.
Last warning.
Read this: https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/top-veterinarian-drops-bombshell
Next comment shilling rabies or any other vaccines gets the ban hammer.
May I suggest not getting a Tetanus shot at all ONLY if you need one? Like after you need it cause you can. Haven't ever had one myself.
I’m not saying everyone needs one; just saying assess personal your risk - benefit.
Actually, not quite. It takes time for the antibodies to develop, so effectiveness is not ensured. It is given at the time of a tetanus prone wound, but paired with tetanus immune globulin, that has its own issues.

Please see the research cited and discussed at my long web page on the vitamin D compounds, primarily 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and the immune system: https://vitamindstopscovid.info/00-evi/. There, you will find peer-reviewed research articles which clearly show that the immune system can only work properly, at least against the bacterial pathogens which cause post-operative infections, if the level of circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D is 50 ng/mL. The same is likely true of immune responses to cancer and both viral and fungal infections.
Without proper vitamin D3 supplementation - in quantities which while small, are 5 to 10 times those recommended by governments and many doctors - and without recent high level ultraviolet B exposure of ideally white skin, most people have 25 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) or less circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D. Some have only one tenth - especially the elderly and/or those with dark or black skin who are living far from the equator.
This page begins with recommendations from New Jersey based Professor of Medicine, Sunil Wimalawansa on the average daily supplemental intake quantities of vitamin D3 which will attain least 50 ng/mL circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D, over several months, without the need for blood tests or medical monitoring:
70 to 90 IU / kg body weight for those not suffering from obesity (BMI < 30).
100 to 130 IU / kg body weight for obesity I & II (BMI 30 to 39).
140 to 180 IU / kg body weight for obesity III (BMI > 39).
For 70 kg (154 lb) body weight without obesity, this is about 0.125 milligrams (125 micrograms 5000 IU) a day. This takes several months to attain the desired > 50 ng/mL circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D. This is 8 or more times what most governments recommend. "5000 IU" a day sounds like a lot, but it is a gram every 22 years - and pharma-grade vitamin D costs about USD$2.50 a gram ex-factory.
Thank you for the comment. I learned a lot. My son had a Vit D level of 14 in Dec 2019 when had a seizure. He is now on Keppra and Vimpat and I always wondered did Covid cause his Epilepsy.
