Didn't he JUST testify words to the effect that "no one should be taking medical advice from me?"

Thank you, Dr. Love, for this urgent and courageous piece. RFK Jr.’s decision to remove COVID-19 vaccines from the recommended schedule for pregnant women and children is not just misguided. It’s dangerous. The data are clear: vaccination saves lives. This move will cause unnecessary harm, particularly to the most vulnerable. We need more scientists willing to speak truth to power. I applaud your clarity and resolve.

As a practicing neurologist and physician, I’ve seen firsthand how misinformation costs lives. Your voice is critically important right now.

Dr. Love, can anything be done to stop RFK Jr. and also revert back to some of the recommends that he has taken away? This feels completely hopeless, unless something can be done to get in this dipshit’s way.

Thanks, Dr. Love, for another important column. Your arguments are clear, concise and compelling. I spent 30 years in local public health (not as a clinician, but in a support role) and this latest outrage from the Corrupt Health Crank is not surprising, but still maddening. This idiot and his cronies are frog-marching us back in time to help Make Diseases Great Again.

Thank you, Dr love for this very cogent and concise argument to refute the irresponsible and, frankly, stupid misinformation being spewed by RFK Junior and the MAHA minions.

I am very impressed with the scientific rigor of your thought processes and writings. Sadly scientific peer-review is a concept totally foreign to our country’s current leadership. Your use of peer-reviewed data highlights just how ludicrous and injurious their “policies” or should that be idiocies are. Sadly, lawsuits from injured parties will be their only wake-up call. Keep up the excellent work.

This is critically important information. I just finished listening to Michael Osterholm’s podcast, and this mild-mannered man is becoming increasingly frustrated as the weeks go on. I am appalled by this regime. Is it safe to say that, from here on in, anything coming from HHS is likely incorrect, and that anything coming from the NIH, FDA and CDC should be rigorously fact checked? The sane, knowledgeable people have mostly been fired.

One thing that makes people vulnerable to COVID-19 complications is excessive polyunsaturated fat in adipose tissue. https://www.medpagetoday.com/reading-room/aga/lower-gi/86940

How do people acquire too much unsaturated fat in adipose tissue? "Fatty acid composition in the Western diet has shifted from saturated to polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), and specifically to linoleic acid (LA, 18:2), which has gradually increased in the diet over the past 50 y to become the most abundant dietary fatty acid in human adipose tissue. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9060469/

Obesity and diabetes are associated with higher risk of COVID-19 complications. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0300908420301553

How did so much of humanity become fat and diabetic? https://journals.biologists.com/jeb/article/224/8/jeb232538/256572/The-under-appreciated-fats-of-life-the-two-types
