The New Yorker published a story reporting that RFK Jr. picked up a bear cub killed by a car and dumped it in Central Park as a joke. WTF? I knew that RFK Jr. and his antivax conspiracy theories were bizarre, but WTF?

Tech bro turned antivaxxer Steve Kirsch recently suffered a devastating subretinal hemorrhage. While I hope he recovers his vision, antivaxxers are being antivaxxers and blaming his vision loss on vaccines.
Vaccine scientist Stanley Plotkin coauthored a commentary on vaccine postlicensure studies. Antivax lawyer Aaron Siri tries to misrepresent it as an “admission” that vaccines aren’t safe. Predictable.
Steve Kirsch got his hands on COVID-19 vaccination data from the Czech Republic, and bad data analysis ensues. This time, he’s falsely claiming that Moderna vaccines are deadlier than Pfizer vaccines, but that both are deadly.
Donald Trump called Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. to try to gain his support. During the call, he repeated antivax tropes that he’s been repeating since 2007. A second Trump administration would be a public health disaster.
