Hey, I don’t want to alarm anyone, but....we should all be alarmed. This kind of tracking is how the Nazis were able to kidnap and hide the fact that they were murdering differently abled children, well before the camps were built.
The National Institutes of Health is amassing private medical records from a number of federal and commercial databases to give to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s new effort to study #autism, the #NIH's top official said Monday.
In addition, a new disease registry is being launched to track Americans with autism, ....
Between 10 and 20 outside groups of researchers will be given grant funding and access to the records to produce Kennedy's autism studies. Bhattacharya did not give details on how they would be chosen, ...."

#FiveYearsAgoToday #AreYouBetterOff
March 21, 2020 – Trump endorsed the combination of two drugs, hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin, to treat coronavirus—despite a lack of testing or backing by the FDA.
In fact, respected medical professionals warned that taking the drugs together could be dangerous.

Senator #RonWyden, Democrat of Oregon & the top Democrat on the panel, goes directly at #RFKJr in his opening remarks. The question, he said, is “whether Robert F. Kennedy should be trusted with the health & well-being of the American people.” He said Kennedy has embraced “#ConspiracyTheories, #quacks, #charlatans,” saying that is especially true concerning the safety & efficacy of #vaccines.

How bad can the UCP get? This provincial report should give everyone a clue. They are going to kill thousands with these recommendations. It's totally tinfoil hat nonsense.

There is just too much going on to be upset about.
But if you want to know what kind of quacks are now working in the US administration, then this 50-second video from Rachel Maddows is a worthwhile look.
Based on research from the Wall Street Journal.
And foreign governments have to take these people serious.

Telltale Signs of Bad Research No. 1763:
Any scholar who posts online asking how to self-publish their next book, because they disliked the "push back" from publishers and colleagues on their last book, is probably a "maverick" (AKA a quack or crank).

COVID-19 #contrarian doctors who became—or outed themselves as—#antivax in response to the pandemic, and then moved to become just generally antivax, are increasingly becoming just plain run-of-the-mill grifting #quacks.
This story reveals how increasingly the quacks have been taking sides.
In this case with Dr. Robert Malone increasingly coming under fire from his fellow COVID-19 antivaxxers like Dr. Peter McCullough and Dr. Paul Alexander for…reasons…and then firing back -
Dear Friends of #Meditation,
I #meditate. I do so because
- #happiness ensues
- it helps me to remain reasonably sane
- #independence from #Quacks
- #thwarts malevolent Howard ducks from other #dimensions
Is it for #everyone? No! There is a meditation for every person ... that is another posting ...

CW: Transphobia — But at least it is being taken to task
TIL a trans-phobic Vancouver nurse being Professionally taken to task for her spreading of hatred is being supported by a wannabe Jordan Peterson psychologist. Two Peas in a Rotten Pod. I love that the Nursing College Lawyers and the Discipline Panel are calling out the Charlatans:
1) Troller gotta Troll: “Hamm acknowledged to the panel that some of her social media posts might come across as offensive or shocking, but her objective is to engage people in conversation.”
2) Meet James - Like Jordan: “Cantor has repeatedly asserted that social media is responsible for an increase in the number of adolescents identifying as transgender since 2012. Panel member Sheila Cessford asked whether he could point to any peer-reviewed research confirming that theory, and Cantor suggested it would be impossible to conduct a proper randomized trial on the question.”
3) “Panel member Jackie Murray then asked about the research supporting his claim that many people who claim to be transgender actually have borderline personality disorder. Cantor acknowledged that there is none”
4) “Cantor then claimed that scientists are "not being permitted" to do this type of research because of the "current culture." Murray again asked for research supporting that claim, and Cantor said he was not aware of any.”

Why do so many #US #Americans believe so much dangerously stupid bullshit?
Previously it seemed like an unfair stereotype? But over the past few years I've seen some measurable behaviours (e.g. use of effective vs ineffective #COVID treatments) that indicate a misunderstanding about the world that's more widespread in the #USA than in #Australia #Aotearoa #WesternEurope and probably a lot of #EastAsia
