Microwaves don’t cause cancer
Neither does Wi-Fi

Annual reminder: the Dirty Dozen is a decades-long scam by the EWG. They lie to you about safe & nutritious fruits & veggies while making millions.

Nope, your produce isn’t contaminated. It’s safe. And just as nutritious + more affordable than organic.

Remember this:

RFK Jr is directly responsible for increased illness & deaths we will see from vaccine-preventable diseases.

Vaccines save millions every year.
His anti-science actions will kill people.

ESPECIALLY the most vulnerable. Children. Older adults. Immunocompromised.

Hot tip:
vaccines protect against outbreaks of preventable infectious diseases, like measles.

when ā€œhealth leadershipā€ officials spread lies about the incredible benefits of vaccines, people stop getting vaccinated, and diseases spread.

just in case that wasn’t clear.

It’s the Most Violently Ill Time of the Year Norovirus is back, it's brutal, and it doesn't care about your hand sanitizer.

Norovirus is incredibly contagious and is the most common cause of acute gastroenteritis.

Outbreaks peak this time of year, in particular.

Norovirus is a cool virus because it doesn't have a lipid envelope. That means it’s an incredibly sturdy virus.

In addition to causing violent vomiting, diarrhea, & stomach cramping, it can be shed in stool for 2 weeks, AND hand sanitizers are ineffective. FUN!

Vaccines for infectious diseases prevent acute AND chronic illnesses.

RFK Jr doesn’t care about preventing chronic illness.

RFK Jr is doing what he’s done for 20+ years, now with the power to change our Federal health policy.

Infants are infected during birth or from other close contact.

When universal newborn vaccination began in 1991, hepatitis B infections PLUMMETED.

Chronic hepatitis B prevalence & liver cancer occurrence dropped.

Newborn hepatitis B vaccinations prevent acute AND chronic illness AND save lives.

90% of hepatitis B infections in kids become chronic hepatitis.
Chronic hepatitis causes 60% of liver cancers.
Hepatitis B is NOT just sexually transmitted, it’s spread through direct contact with bodily fluids.

• Vaccines don’t cause autism.
• COVID-19 vaccines aren’t killing kids.
• COVID-19 *is* the leading infectious cause of death in children.

The CDC & FDA have been taken over by wellness grifters.
Posting lies as ā€œtruthā€ doesn’t make them true—it makes them propaganda.

Zero vaccines are ā€œinjected directly into the bloodstreamā€

Approved vaccines are:
• Intramuscular
• Subcutaneous
• Intradermal
• Oral
• Intranasal

No approved vaccines are administered intravenously.

Hope that helps šŸ™ƒ

Remember when RFK Jr profited off the lie that vaccines cause autism? | excerpts from @WIRED YouTube video by Andrea Love, PhD

RFK Jr unilaterally turned CDC into an anti-vaccine propaganda site.

Do people forget that he has made millions of dollars demonizing vaccines and autism for the last 25 years?

This is his business model.

A recent study did NOT show vaccines cause autism, but RFK Jr. keeps pushing the lie. Yet again, anti-vaccine activists self-published a ā€œstudyā€ to spread disinformation and profit off fear.

If RFK Jr.’s CDC now promoting the lie that vaccines cause autism while he personally profits off said lie isn’t a conflict of interest, I don’t know what is.

Our health agencies are now full-blown propaganda machines.

Today is a dark day in the USA.

The amount of aluminum in select vaccines is

up to 72 TIMES LESS aluminum than you ingest daily from foods
and
up to 400 TIMES LESS aluminum than is in your body at any time.

Oh and it’s ALL filtered and excreted by your kidneys in the SAME EXACT WAY.

RFK Jr.'s Aluminum Lie No, aluminum vaccine adjuvants aren't causing autism, allergies, or other health issues. RFK Jr.'s conspiracy hinges on a 1961 patent, zero evidence, and total ignorance of immunology.

My latest: news.immunologic.org/p/rfk-jrs-al...

I debunk ALL of RFK Jr.’s lies about aluminum & vaccines.

•Aluminum adjuvants in vaccines DO NOT CAUSE allergies or autism.

•You eat 70X more aluminum daily than any vaccine contains.

•There is no peanut oil in any vaccine. EVER.

For those who want to read some actual science, I highly recommend reading the below article.

(if reading is hard for you like it is Calley, substack will even read it aloud to you):

I wrote an article specifically on this very topic & used examples to illustrate why correlation *isn’t* causation.

Maybe you want to read something that isn’t wellness propaganda for once?

Remember Calley: it’s important to be data-driven.

So Calley, the opposite is true.

People *with* critical thinking skills pause & try to understand claims being made from observations.

Are these things plausibly related?
If so, what is the potential mechanism?
What would we have to do in the follow up study to answer that?

Today, there are a huge number of BAD observational studies coming out because of the predatory publishing industry.

Basic demographics aren’t even corrected for.

Major factors of a health outcome, like age & cancer, or age & neurodegenerative disease —aren’t adjusted for.

And instead of using context, consulting *relevant* scientists to understand why that conclusion isn’t accurate, & using measured language, they fear monger.

For Calley, it’s exploitative.
He makes money when he undermines real scientists & credible health professionals.

Media outlets, ā€œhealth journalists,ā€ & wellness influencers like Calley with zero scientific research experience, (+ even some physicians)

don’t understand study design.

So they run wild with false claims about ā€œlinksā€ b/w some nebulous ā€œexposureā€ & some health outcome.

OBSERVATIONAL studies do this as a rule.

They don’t control for variables.
They look at data & make guesses about what might be related to each other.

But they *cannot*, by definition, make claims that one causes the other.

Because it’s just passively observing.

For people with the ability to use their brains and understand context,

*no one* uses ā€œcorrelation isn’t causationā€ for *any* argument.

They use it when appropriate.
When — literally, two data sets follow similar trends but aren’t actually linked to each other.

You’re absolutely right, Calley.

So, by your logic:

Organic food causes autism.
(That includes the organic supplements you sell as a wellness profiteer)
