RFK Jr. aka Bob is a nutcase who believes some strange things such as diseases are not really caused by germs and that only the fit should survive. If a disease kills someone, then that person needed to die to make the species stronger.

The former director of the CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease raised a "red flag" on Saturday morning, accusing Health and Human Services head Robert F. Kennedy Jr. promoting eugenics.

The former director of the CDC’s National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Disease raised a “red flag” on Saturday morning, accusing Health and Human Services head Robert F. Kennedy Jr. promoting eugenics.

Appearing on MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who resigned in protest over the firing of CDC Director Susan Monarez, hammered at RFK Jr’s purge of scientists at the CDC, which has plunged the department into chaos.......

“I’ll start by saying this is sort of in my in my sort of personal experience,” he began. “You know, my grandfather was in Greece; he died because he stood up against sort of fascist regimes in his country. And when I see the secretary [RFK Jr] go on television and, you know, talk about the first time I was like, ‘Oh, no,’ when he was talking about the H5N1bird flu and chickens, and he said in an interview, all of the chickens should get bird flu. and the ones that survive are genetically superior and they should reproduce and they should reestablish the flock. “

“So fast forward to West Texas and measles, where he says, you know, getting the infection is fine, really, because only the strong will survive. You know, like it makes your immune system stronger, which is false,” he added. “It actually makes your immune system weaker.”

“So I really hear the echoes of the words ‘superior genetics,’” he elaborated. “He referred to very high members of this administration and their improving health status and said, well, that person has superior genetics. That is eugenics. Wake up, that is a red flag.”

4. The Roman medical pioneer Galen knew at least as much as RFK, Jr.

Not that Galen had the modern understanding of infectious disease. The Roman medical pioneer Galen believed the plague afflicting Rome was a result of an excess of the humor black bile. Galen was a learned man and a pioneer in medicine, but, of course, he knew nothing of the work of Pasteur 2000 years later. But still, his theory was no worse than RFK, Jr's. Galen suggested treatments that included mountain cow's milk, dirt from Armenia, and boys urine. Please advise RFK, Jr of this. He may want to issue a CDC directive for this cure.

7. The new Lysenkoism

David Gorski on March 31, 2025

... During his time as Josef Stalin’s favorite scientist, Lysenko and his version of biology that came to be known as Lysenkoism led to the persecution of biologists who stuck to science-based views regarding agriculture that conflicted with Lysenko’s, up to and including imprisonment and, in some cases, execution. Worse, his ideas applied to Soviet Agriculture clearly led to crop shortfalls and ended up massively worsening famines. Although no one has been imprisoned (yet) or executed, under the reign of President Donald Trump and HHS Secretary RFK Jr., the suppression of politically incorrect science and purges of the ideologically impure or suspect have already begun, most recently Peter Marks, the FDA’s Director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER), who was forced to resign last week ...

... now that RFK Jr. and his “make America healthy again” (MAHA) ideology rule HHS, there is no room left for someone who follows the science wherever it goes ...

... Like Trofim Lysenko, RFK Jr. is an ideologue whose “science” flows from his preconceived notions about vaccines, public health, and chronic illness. Like Lysenko, RFK Jr. is not swayed by evidence, science, or reason. After all, many have tried to persuade him that vaccines do not cause autism using scientific evidence, and he still fervently believes it ...
