What illness and death were like before germ theory.
RFK, Jr. touts nutrition and alternate therapies, but this nineteenth-century family tried everything available to save their daughter, putting her through dangerous and painful treatments. What they needed were antibiotics.
"RFK Jr. calls vaccines and antibiotics “patented poisons,” but these are the cures for which Celestia and countless others prayed."
