Last year, I wrote this long thread on vaccines and autism, and why vaccines DO NOT cause autism.

This is more pertinent than ever, now that #RFKJr is being suggested as a health minister of sorts in the States.

As an autistic adult, I've been fighting against this misinformation for many years. The idea that vaccines cause autism, and therefore ASD is damage that needs to be fixed, avoided; that autistic people are broken and dysfunctional is dangerous to us. It justifies cruel, abusive methods to 'cure' us.

DJ, stupidity is not a new pandemic...stupid people ending up in "high places" however is "sick"....

Why not vaccinate people at high occupational risk of exposure/infection. #H5N1 pre-pandemic vaccine is @US_FDA
 licensed in U.S. for this purpose. @CDCFlu
 @CDCgov
 says match is great for current virus. @ASPRgov
 @BARDA
 have millions doses ready. @Cal_HHS
 @GavinNewsom
DJ, If you want to vaccinate high risk groups it would be welcome to test more farm animals...to find out what groups are high risks (and if they have a legal status in the US or "used and dumped" after infection...

It may be cheaper to exploit a Central American farm worker then to use vaccines...Like during the CoViD healthcrisis "politics" rather imported HCW-ers than increase (very low) salaries...

#H5N1 virus can be lethal. Imp to  surveillance in people & animals; accelerate diversification of stockpiled flu antivirals, update vaccines, make testing for H5 available in homes, clinics, pharmacies. 

Central to all, is rapid, full transparency by govt agencies; critical for global readiness & public trust.

DJ-again-H5N1, Mpox has to be related to CoViD-immunity damage...NOT looking for what CoViD infections do to immunity is "unwise"...it will bring in lots of (new) diseases...

We are only AT THE START of a very major pandemic...in history major pandemics did take "a long time"...
