“The measles gave you lifetime protection against measles infection,” Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Sean Hannity on Fox News.
Wouldn't it be great if there was something else that gave you protection against measles infection, without you actually having to have measles? If only ...
The measles vaccine is literally a weakened version of the measles virus. It’s just an attenuated measles infection that allows your body to build antibodies against it without a full on infection.
This guy should have stayed off the raw meat.
As I said in a different thread recently, the only issue is that the name "vaccine" has been tainted in the minds of idiots. Rebrand it as "natural immune system therapy" or something, and market it as something the establishment is firmly against, and they'd be lining up to get it.
None of these people understand what vaccines actually do.
Some vaccines use target antigen production instead of the actual virus itself. This can be accomplished in a number of ways such as the bait and switch of using a specialized strain of a similar virus or by using a target antigen carrier to provide it. In the case of measles, Hemagglutinin protein is the target antigen.
Also, factually incorrect. Measles is known to cause immune amnesia, wiping out immunities gained from other infections (and measles).
Yes, the old strategy of overwhelming the hospital system with mouth breathers.
Amazing strategy, Raisinhead.
I consider him more of an apple head.
Not supporting this dude, but I watched the whole video and he never once said it would be better if everyone got measles. Maybe I missed it; if so, please correct me. He mentioned a waning effect with the vaccine vs full-blown infection, which I highly doubt is accurate (I'll research it later), but that's a massive stretch to get to the headline. He even recommended vaccines and said they will be available for free to anyone that needs them. I've gotten a little lazy in fact checking left leaning stuff because I always felt it was a little more trustworthy. I'm just starting to wonder how much I've been blindly accepting because it conforms to my biases.
Thanks for watching it and writing this. Good to know it's not as stupid as it's made out to be.
I've actually got fed up with left-leaning outrage news because any time I check it it's twisted out of shape or plain wrong. I'm sure there's plenty the same in right-leaning-outrage-news, I just don't see it in the first place!
I wish people who want a world of truth and science wouldn't lie to get support.
The written article also doesn’t say it would be better if everyone got measles. I listened to the interview long enough to see the article is quoting him accurately and fairly. At least for that.
Then he spent probably too much time talking about vitamin A, and I didn’t listen to the rest
It’s really just a lying outrage headline - from the written article
Goat comment lmfao
Remember the conspiracy theorists who though "the government" was using Covid-19 to cull the population? I wonder what they're up to right now.
Measles also resets your immune system for every other thing your body already learned to deal with. No, it would not be fucking better.
Fuck this assclown, my wife is allergic to the measles vaccination and will likely die if she gets the disease.
Louis Pasteur is rolling over in his grave.
Any sane person already had measles Rob. We were smart enough to get the vaccine.
Uhhhhhh doesn’t measles reset your immune system or something like that?
When measles propaganda from our lizard overlords at "Daily Beast" masks mass-culling programs, trust only medieval-era natural immunity. The only good vaccine is no vaccine.

Conspiracy theorists for the last few decades: "The government is trying to murder us!"
The actual government in 2025: "Yes, we would like it if a grand majority of you were to die"
Conspiracy theorists: crickets
Yeah. I wish I could die of a preventable disease. Totally the way I want to go.
How to kill a lot of children.
I fucking can't with the news anymore. Holy shit.
Measles is capable of resetting the immune system's memory of other vaccines. This sack of shit is so incredibly dangerous.
As a bonus for contracting measles, you'll get all your previous vaccines and earned immunities deleted by the measles virus attacking your immune cells dedicated to remembering how to effectively fight past pathogens.
So you can think of measles as THE antivaccine. No wonder the antivaxxers love it so much!
And polio too, right.
I'm still optimistic the lifers at HHS who stood firm and didn't resign are just slowly teaching Lil Bobby what a vaccine is:
While RFK Jr. recently shifted his stance to concede that vaccinations are actually pretty useful, he has still stopped short of urging skeptics to go and get it. And in an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity that aired Tuesday night, he appeared to still favor natural immunity through exposure to the virus.
"It used to be, when I were a kid, that everybody got measles. And the measles gave you lifetime protection against measles infection,” he said, then taking a swipe at the vaccine. “The vaccine doesn’t do that. The vaccine is effective for some people for life, but for many people it wanes.”
Like, he is damn close to understanding a measles vaccine is measles, just a hindered version that won't be able to reproduce and cause harm. And real close to understanding the need for booster shots.
He's still not there, and it seems to be taking weeks for what can be covered in depth in 15 minutes.
But eventually I hope they'll win him over.
"A bunch of kids should die in pain so many more may live in fear."

I wonder if widescale immunity reset could lead to a resurgence of something like polio which we've almost eradicated.
My father had measles when he was a little boy, sometime in the 1940s. It nearly killed him. Measles is no joke. Anyone trying to spread it around on purpose should get a bullet in the brain before they have a chance to harm others.
dont you mean worms, if everyone can get worms he can control them telepathically like a hive mind.
