Don't take health advice from Trump

Tweet

This is the man who suggested injecting bleach and ingesting horse dewormer to treat COVID. This is the man who chose crackpot RFK Jr. to be the Secretary of Health and Human Services. This is the man who "feels" that vaccines cause autism. There is ZERO evidence linking vaccines to autism but Trump has a "feeling" so he has issued an executive order pushing the administration of measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines as separate shots to be given at different times. The Very Stable Genius claimed that the amount of vaccines being "poured" into a child's body is the same as a bottle of soda. I'm going to assume that he means a 12 ounce bottle and not a 2 liter one though that may be giving him too much credit. The total volume of vaccines injected into a child over the course of the recommended vaccine schedule is about 2 tablespoons. A 12 ounce bottle of soda contains 24 tablespoons. Not even close to reality. Also who is POURING vaccines down a child's throat? No one--that's who. Aside from putting America's children at risk for completely preventable diseases there are no individual vaccines for measles, mumps, and rubella. The combo MMR vaccine is what everyone uses. Merck stopped making the individual ones because no one was ordering them. And another "bonus" is that children will be unnecessarily upset. Think of how upset they can get just going to the doctor let alone having to get shots. So Trump thinks it is a good idea to force young children to go 3x for one course of a vaccine that needs to be administered a couple of times. Solid plan Trump! Parents will LOVE it! Don't listen to Trump when it comes to medical advice--vaccines or otherwise. He knows nothing about medicine (RFK is in the same boat) and his explanation for the insane things he says/promotes is that he has a "feeling". Personally I would trust the Black Eyed Peas and their feeling before I would listen to Trump.
