This sentence bears all the context it needs.

[-] 100@fedia.io 167 points 1 day ago

time to require proof of vaccines from americans at airports and borders?

[-] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 127 points 1 day ago

As an American I fully support such proposals.

[-] Zink@programming.dev 5 points 11 hours ago

Yeah as an American I generally support the rest of the world trying to drag us back into the civilized world however they can.

But at the same time, international travel inconveniences will have a 0% effect on a LOT of people who need the message.

Sorry, all you get is proof of brain worms and essential oils.

[-] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Proof of vaccinations are now stamped by RFK Jr. himself.

He looks like he may be a giant brain worm wearing a corpse.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Did Alex Jones not wear suits?

[-] Mirshe@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Famously, not really. He's always stuck to business casual at best to make himself look more like a "man of the people".

not that I watched him at all so I don't know of this image is representative, but whenever I think of him I see him in a wifebeater

So... Which billionaire republican buddy is gonna buy them up before they announce 'lol jk'?

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 55 points 1 day ago

Sooo, anyone want to take bets that Bird Flu is going to be the next pandemic?

[-] Phoenicianpirate@lemm.ee 4 points 22 hours ago

Avian flu thankfully didn't become a major pandemic in times past due to luck and measures taken. But SARS in 2003 could have become a major pandemic... because COVID-19 is a variant of the 2003 SARS...

[-] Jesusaurus@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago

The government has decided that pandemics are a hoax and as such do not exist.

[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 18 points 1 day ago

Off to the gulag, I go.

[-] RagingRobot@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago
[-] ShaggySnacks@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 20 hours ago

M pox is so cliche. Bird Flu is hot.

[-] harmsy@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

I want to get off Mr. Trump's Wild Ride.

Stocks in companies that make chainsaws powerful enough to cut the heads off of whales are through the roof.

Am I the only one who thinks companies providing healthcare and life saving medicines shouldn't be fucking publicly traded?? They need to focus on helping humanity, not the fucking bottom line go up or whatever.

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago

Well yes that's obvious

It's supposed to be publicly funded, not traded

Someone a long time ago must have misheard

"Somebody shit in my pants."

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 44 points 1 day ago

How do I find a way out of this dimension?

[-] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 23 points 1 day ago

Such a sad time in history.

No not Big Pharma! Won't anybody think of the STOCKS?

[-] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 12 points 23 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago)

Upside: pharma companies stop making massive profits

Downside: we all die from preventable diseases.

Win some lose some 🤷

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 1 points 20 hours ago

Terrible time to be considering having children.

[-] Paddzr@lemmy.world 2 points 19 hours ago

Or being anyone not male and whitest of white.

[-] Spacehooks@reddthat.com 1 points 17 hours ago

Can forget wealthy. It's better than just white.

[-] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 40 points 1 day ago

I mean, what can anyone even say about this. It's just so insane

These companies are huge, and know how to lobby the government. It seems to be the wrong industry to piss off.

[-] DirkMcCallahan@lemmy.world 26 points 1 day ago

I never thought I'd side with big corporations...but for the next 4 years, some of them may well be the lesser evil.

That's one thing I'm putting some hope in. Tariffs and stupid shit like Worm Boy running our national health infrastructure into the ground benefit no one. Not big companies, not us little guys. I'd hope these big companies will lobby hard to mitigate the stupidity that is bearing down on us.

Making Polio great again!

[-] solrize@lemmy.world 19 points 1 day ago

This is farcical. Operation Warp Speed (fast development of Covid vaccines) was one of the few good things that Trump 1.0 did.

[-] TheReturnOfPEB@reddthat.com 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

From tragedy to farce as you give Trump credit for the work of Nobel prize winning medical scientists Katalin Karikó and Drew Weissman. Bloodly hell we are moving towards being North Korea.

[-] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Yeah fuck giving him credit for what scientists did.
