Why are more than 300 people in the US still dying from COVID every week?

The mainstream medical and pediatrician community, not surprisingly, disagrees with anti-vaxer, COVID misinformer RFK Jr.:

 

New FDA framework on Covid vaccines leaves pediatricians confused and concerned

 

May 20, 2025

...

 

"The possibility that Covid shots would become unavailable for kids alarmed pediatricians. “I see children admitted to the hospital with Covid and they’re not all high-risk children — including those who go to intensive care units,” said James Campbell, a professor of pediatrics and infectious diseases specialist at the University of Maryland. “If we have safe and effective vaccines that prevent illness, we think they should be available.” [emphasis added]

...

 

Making sure children have immunity through early vaccination is something many physicians support, however, especially because most infants have not been exposed to the virus. “I think there is strong data to suggest Covid should be part of routine childhood vaccinations,” said Amesh Adalja, an infectious disease physician and senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. “We vaccinate kids for things that have less morbidity and mortality than Covid, like chickenpox for example.”

 

Emergency physician Jeremy Faust of Boston’s Brigham and Women’s Hospital, who hosted his own livestream to discuss the new framework as soon as it was released, said it was critical to make sure “immune-naive” infants 6 months and older receive the vaccine."

And from RFK Jr.'s arrival into the Trump Admin:

 

How measles, whooping cough and worse could roar back on RFK Jr.'s watch

December 6, 2024

 

"Now, after backlash against public health interventions culminated in President-elect Donald Trump's nominating antivaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the nation's top health official, infectious disease and public health experts and vaccine advocates say a confluence of factors could cause renewed, deadly epidemics of measles, whooping cough, and meningitis, or even polio.

 

"The litany of things that will start to topple is profound," said James Hodge, a public health law expert at Arizona State University's Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law. "We're going to experience a seminal change in vaccine law and policy."

 

"He'll make America sick again," said Lawrence Gostin, a professor of public health law at Georgetown University.

Because of Trump’s incompetently!!!!

 

Had he been on the ball, we’d have none of it.

What is far worse than COVID is the dreaded Trump syndrome that for some reason, we cannot mention on this thread.

And of course, RFK Jr. has once again proved he's simply a liar:

 

After Trump win, RFK Jr. says he won't 'take away anybody's vaccines'

Nov. 7, 2024

 

"WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who may play a key role overseeing public health issues in a second Trump administration, said Wednesday that he wouldn't “take away anybody's vaccines.”

 

Asked in an interview with NBC News whether there are specific vaccines that he would remove from the market, Kennedy rejected the idea that he's "anti-vaccine" despite his repeated claims about vaccines' being linked to autism — and his involvement with Children's Health Defense, a leading anti-vaccine group. He reiterated that he wouldn't take them away from Americans."

You're repeating a falsehood that's already been debunked in two graphics I previously posted in this thread above from the U.S. government:

 

Of all reported COVID deaths in the U.S. thus far in 2025, at least two third had COVID as the underlying / main cause.

 

If you go back to the entire duration of the pandemic, that share rises to 87%:

 

Are you still masking..?

 

I bet so.
