Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has pledged to tackle high rates of chronic diseases such as diabetes and obesity as President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the US Department of Health and Human Services. They’re goals that many in the public health world find themselves agreeing with — despite fearing what else the infamous anti-vaccine activist may do in the post.
Just don’t suggest that he tackle those goals with medications like Ozempic.

- Get measles encephalitis? Lifelong brain damage.
- Measles orchitis (at the testicle)? Lifelong infertility.
- Hemophilus influenzae B infection? There is 3-6 percent chance you die.
- Neonatal hepatitis B infection? 90% of the time it goes chronic -- 1/4 of those babies die, and 1/4 end up with liver cancer.
*Yeah sure, people bleat about "my babies aren't having sex or using IV drugs." But Hep B is 100 TIMES as infectious as HIV. All it takes is a nosebleed in the asymptomatic person holding your baby, or at a car accident, or wherever. Would you be okay with someone with active HIV holding your baby? Hep B is 100 TIMES as contagious.
Measles can also cause deafness, which considering the incoming administration want to greatly reduce or completely eliminate funding for children with diabilites it might be something to consider when you decide your kid shouldn't be vaccinated against measles.
You cannot protect your child with a measles vaccine until they are 12 months old. Right now, the young infants are protected by some immunity from mom and then herd immunity until 12 months. You will need to try to get your infant to a place with herd immunity until they reach 12 months.

Vaccines are created and tested by pharmaceutical companies, for-profit organizations that are designed to make money. Yet, the truth is that childhood vaccines are among the least profitable products for big pharma. These companies make the lion’s share of their profits by selling drugs that treat diseases and health conditions.
For example, sales of the Sovaldi drug for Hepatitis C — just one treatment by one pharmaceutical company for one disease sold almost entirely in the United States — exceeded more than $10 billion in one year. Annual sales for a drug like Viagra pull in close to $2 billion annually. The total pharmaceutical revenue in the US is a staggering $482 billion per year.
In comparison, the total revenue possible per year if all childhood vaccines were given to every child born in the US from their birth until 18 years of age would be only $8 billion - equal to only 1.7% of pharma sales. So, even vaccinating every child with every vaccine to prevent multiple illnesses across the country would bring in less revenue than one single drug is capable of bringing in to treat a single infection in some people.
