The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention descended into turmoil this week after Health Secretary and zealous anti-vaccine advocate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. ousted the agency’s director, Susan Monarez, who had just weeks ago been confirmed by the Senate and earned Kennedy’s praise for her “unimpeachable scientific credentials.”
It appears those scientific chops are what led to her swift downfall. Since the Department of Health and Human Services announced on X late Wednesday that “Susan Monarez is no longer director” of the CDC, media reports have revealed that her forced removal was over her refusal to bend to Kennedy’s anti-vaccine, anti-science agenda…
There’s part of me that thinks RFK really is gullible (to be generous), which is why he believes all this bullshit. So it would make sense that he thought he’d be able to convince this scientist to go along with his truth.
He’s never had to actually work in life, or learn anything, but has always had money and power. He’s literally stupid enough to believe his own bullshit
Just like the guy who hired him.
