The COVID-19 Blues

Old-Dutch

Considering MC’s post I’m not going there.

We’ll see what the future brings.

Old-Dutch Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. declared Thursday that “by September we will know what has caused the autism epidemic,” setting a timeline of five months for identifying the growth of a disorder that has been heavily researched for decades across the globe.
“We are going to know by September,” Kennedy declared at a Trump Cabinet meeting, while crediting this forecast to his launch of a federal study that he reportedly tapped a fellow vaccine skeptic to oversee. “We’ve launched a massive testing and research effort that’s going to involve hundreds of scientists from around the world. By September we will know what has caused the autism epidemic and we’ll be able to eliminate those exposures.”

Old-Dutch

303abuser Agreed. We can all applaud his autism cure by september.

This is getting tedious now, lol

You know the difference between identifying a cause and creating a cure for something, right?

303abuser

Old-Dutch So you didn’t like the quote you asked for?

303abuser

Old-Dutch Read the end of the quote. “We’ll be able to eliminate those exposures.” Please don’t call me tedious then try to debate the meaning of the word cure.

Old-Dutch

You clearly don’t. Identifying a cause ansd eliminating this is a preventative measure. It won’t cure autism. He has not said he’ll cure autism - you have said this.

Enough of this tedium. Beer time

If you eliminate the environmental causes, that would constitute a cure. By September. That’s what he said.

I’m so confused as to what your position is here. He said it and it’s stupid.

Old-Dutch

Clearly you are. Eliminating something will help.prevent future cases.

It won’t ‘cure’ existing cases. You’re putting words in hos mouth. He’s not said he’ll will cure autism in any way

Christ

Cool, you win I guess. You asked for a quote and I found it for you. Interpret it however you like.

Fellas, have we considered autism is not something that needs to be cured? This has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that all my loved ones think I’m a highly functioning one. I promise.

As for the rest of Dutchy’s revelations, I will get back to them tomorrow when I’m sober and not in the middle of a mix.

Homegrove Of course and the idea that something that has been studied for decades is going to be “cured” in the next three months by a guy with a worm-addled brain is ludicrous. RFK shouldn’t be left in charge of his own healthcare, much less that of an entire nation.

I’m wet in anticipation, Hannu

Too late - my knickers are off. AND I HAVEN’T EVEN SHAVED MY FANNY

Old-Dutch

I hope RFK delivers the goods. Whether he will or not, who knows. Delivering the goods will be a massive win for people globally. Shame people are so hell bent on wanting him to fail - nobody wins in this situation.

He’s thrown down the gauntlet for himself with identifying the causes of autism by September.

If he does identify the cause, will anyone accept it?

303abuser

Old-Dutch He won’t identify any causes of autism (ever, forget September) and he won’t deliver on anything broadly useful. That’s about as likely as Trump focusing on good government. I’d be happy to be proven wrong.

RichM

Old-Dutch not enough focus on this post.

Any pics?

Mad_Cyril

Old-Dutch Mmmm, baccy pouch

Old-Dutch

Cool. Let’s see.

Bit of a crazy challenge to be honest

303abuser

There’s absolutely nothing in his background or accomplishments that indicates he’ll be successful, he’s only in this position as a quid pro quo for dropping out of the election to avoid siphoning votes from trump.

Old-Dutch

He’s already waging war on food additives, dyes, seed oils and comparing US food ingredients and practices to Europe and asking questions.

His predecessor might have thought to do the same

303abuser

We’ll see what results come, I expect nothing. Congress has passed maybe 5 bills since January 20th and then there’s net harm to consider. Look at his backtracking on his initial stance regarding the measles outbreak.
