The cartoon takes place inside a quiet, orderly library. • At the front desk stands a librarian, drawn with a calm, matter‑of‑fact expression. She’s behind a counter with books and a computer. • In front of her is a man asking a question. He’s leaning slightly forward, as if genuinely trying to locate a book. • A speech bubble shows him asking: “Where would I find books detailing RFK Jr’s immunization expertise?” • The librarian replies with dry humor: “Third aisle on the left, in Fiction.” • Bookshelves fill the background, reinforcing the library setting. • The drawing style is loose, ink‑based, and expressive—typical of editorial cartoons. • The artist’s signature, Jonathan Brown, appears along with two website credits.

Confidence in childhood vaccine recommendations is at a new low from a new Axios-Ipsos poll. We can thank RFK Jr. for the dangerous consequences. #HHS #RFKJr #Healthcare #Immunization #ChildrensHealth #ACIP
