That stuff is garbage to begin with, but sometimes necessary. I'd consider any of it that is sourced from overseas locations to be suspect and possibly tainted. |
Most people at the top of the chain of command rarely know anything about the details of the work. Ask the CEO of some auto maker how to change the timing on an engine, and they won't know where to start.

One doe not "believe" in science, as that implies "faith" and make it a religion. REAL SCIENCE is 100% about being skeptical. Question everything. Constantly trying to DISPROVE EVERYTHING, that is the Scientific Method. Science is not about finding "proof" it is about finding things that cannot be disproven, while continuously trying to disprove them. |
Finally, we have some real intelligence here. Thank you! |

I HATE HIM. My child has autism and I'm so damn scared for what this garbage human is going to do.

| Whats the point of this registry? Why would anyone comply?! |
You’ve missed a critical piece of this. It’s not an issue of compliance. RFK jr’s people will be scraping records containing what is supposed to be confidential information. This ranges from records for people on Medicare and Medicaid—- to records from Pharmacies, private insurance companies, smart watches, fitness devices and other sources. Apparently without explicit permission. Those of you who didn’t read the fine print on your 200 page customer agreements for your electronic devices have possibly already given consent though. It should be obvious, but just in case it isn’t, and sort of data screening like this almost certainly involves looking at all of the data that they can get from any source about everyone that they can. While they might segregate the files of interest, the only way to determine which files are actually of interest is to examine any and all data sets that they have access to. Who exactly has access to our medical data — and what they decide to do with it at any point in the future —will no longer be under our explicit control. No one is asking for consent here. |
To add, No, I didn’t make up the parts about getting data from smart watches, fitness trackers and pharmacies. This stands out to me because the link between smart watch and fitness tracker data is what, exactly? https://people.com/rfk-jr-to-launch-autism-registry-using-private-health-records-11720156 |
Ok, what large organization has he run? Federal agency? Federal sub-agency? State health dept? State health agency? Any govt entity? Any medium-sized organization? Perhaps a health clinic? What makes him qualified to run the largest healthcare provider in the US? |
Wow, that is very sinister. I am disgusted. |
"Hate is irrational and not logical. It clouds your judgement."- Old Vulcan proverb. Michael Corleone also said it.
|
What makes him "unqualified"? Did you not understand the post about that being a subjective term? |
He is NOT a good guy. Read the article in the New Yorker about him or the Jerry Oppenheimer biography. He has gotten everywhere because of his name. He is a diletante at best. There is no substance to him. |
I am highly skeptical of all these data RFK jr is using to support his positions on food dyes. |
Does he have any experience that is relevant to his current job? |
