RFK Jr. Meets the President-Elect at Trump Tower
To Chair Vaccine Safety and Science Commission?
Even with web sites like The Beast bemoaning the presidential appointment,
“Robert F. Kennedy Jr.—Camelot heir, lawyer, environmentalist, and crackpot [sic] anti-vaxxer—met with President-Elect Donald Trump today to talk about vaccines. Kennedy later told reporters that Trump has tapped him to chair a commission on ‘vaccine safety and scientific integrity.’ … This meeting alone is likely to embolden discredited conspiracy theorists who have cheered Trump’s election—and it should send shivers down the spines of parents, doctors, and believers in science everywhere….”
Vaccine Choice advocates are encouraged by the President-elect’s willingness to look at the issue. As Informed Consent campaigner Rima E. Laibow MD remarked, “RFK Jr. is a brave and committed voice for freedom of choice in health care. He is the very opposite of the “crackpot” description in The Beast report. When vaccine pushers tell us that “the science is settled” we know that they either do not understand real science, which can never be “settled” or they are misinforming for their own personal or profit agenda. The Vaccine Safety and Science Commission is an important step toward ending the tragedy of childhood vaccine injuries.”
Dr. Laibow continued, “This appointment does not surprise me, since many thousands of Americans used our web form action item, Tell Trump to End Vax Mandates, to email the Trump Transition Team asking the new Administration to take a strong stand on the vaccine choice issue. And with the President-elect reaching out to the Vaccine Choice Movement so powerfully, we can hope that the relentless push for ever more mandated vaccines will finally stop, and we can hope to finally see declines in the incidence of autism in the young and dementia in the elderly. ”
Rumors circulating after the initial meeting suggest some internal dissension in the Trump Camp with some transition figures urging that Trump not be seen to be “anti-science” on the vaccine issue. While people vary on their understanding of the risks of uninsurable vaccination, the idea that government, or employers or schools, have power to coerce* consent for vaccination remains contentious.
Members of the public remain invited to message the Trump Transition, thanking them for planning the Vaccine Safety and Science Commission, and supporting RFK Jr’s involvement here: http://TinyURL.com/VaccinePolicy
* We use “coerce” in the sense used in the Nuremberg Code. See: http://drrimatruthreports.com/a-brief-for-informed-consent/ – “The voluntary consent of the human subject is absolutely essential. This means that the person involved should have legal capacity to give consent; should be so situated as to be able to exercise free power of choice, without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, over-reaching, or other ulterior form of constraint or coercion; and should have sufficient knowledge and comprehension of the elements of the subject matter involved, as to enable him to make an understanding and enlightened decision.”
