Monday, July 2, 1900. Measles.

A quarantine was declared in Nome, Alaska, due to a measles outbreak in the Native American community.  Mortality rates in some communities reached 100%.

Let that sink in.  100%.  Up to 2,000 people died.

And now, you have this:

Wyoming reports first measles case since 2010

Wyoming reports first measles case since 2010: Infected child may have exposed people in Casper hospital’s ER waiting room to highly contagious virus.

Of course, you can vaccinate for measles, but with the current anti scientific atmosphere, and somebody like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., in charge of HHS, well. . . 

The LZ1 Zeppelin, the first rigid airship, flew from the Manzell district of Friedrichshafen, Germany, near Lake Constance for 3.75 miles (6.04 km) in 18 minutes before being forced to land due to a broken part.

Killing people through lies and disinformation

Lex Anteinternet: Killing people through omission.:   

‘A lot of Americans are going to die’ courtesy of RFK Jr.


The Trump Administration is well on its way towards being one of the most lethal in modern American history through the spread of lies and medical disinformation, and the withholding of funds for aid where it can be effective.

At some future point in history, historians are going to look at this era as one in which rational thinking simply broke down into mass delusion.

Killing people through omission.

 

The DOGE lead cuts on USAID, which ended up in eliminating the entity for all practical purposes, have lead to at least 300,000 deaths around the globe.

And now Robert Kennedy, who is a quack in terms of medicine, vaccines, and diet, has announced that the United States won’t contribute anymore to Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, until the global health organization has “re-earned the public trust".

A Disturbing Trifecta

The weekend shows were unsettling, to say the least.

Economic chaos was referenced in all three shows.

On This Week, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, who sounds like a dimwit in spite of a fairly impressive set of credentials, indicated that the tariff exception for electronics is only temporary until the government comes out with targeted tariffs on them of some sort.

On Meet The Press, investor and author Ray Dalio pretty much predicated a depression, and perhaps a global war of some sort.

On Face the Nation Neel Kashkari, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, clinically said the economy is going in the toilet.

Also on Face the Nation, recently resigned Dr. Peter Marks, the creator of Operation Warp Speed, went after Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on his measles response with both barrels, and reloaded four or five times.  He also related Kennedy's promise to figure out the cause of autism by fall as absurd.

Nifty.
