Infants barely three days old are receiving antibody injections to help protect against the virus. Nearly 300 cases have been reported in the outbreak.
Yep, as of this week at least… For some background, Vitamins A, D, E, and K are the fat-soluble vitamins. This means overdosing on them can take quite a long time to fully recover from. Excessive Vitamin A can result in significant liver, bone, central nervous system, and skin damage, as well as hair loss. But I’ve not once heard RFK say anything about dosage, which is idiotic for someone in his position. Vitamin A’s primary role for humans involves regulating cell/tissue growth and differentiation. Vitamin A’s main prescription usage is for cystic or nodular acne under the brand name Accutane. Accutane’s dosage needs to be very dialed in, so much so that the patients using it must get monthly blood work, if not bimonthly or weekly. Additionally, women must agree to not get pregnant on Accutane, as it leads to severe birth defects and other pregnancy complications. But sure, the dude in charge of the department of health sees no need to say anything about dosage, just that taking Vitamin A is helpful for measles while there’s an exceptional vaccine readily available…

Listen nerd, that was a lotta words. Nothing that matters takes that many words to say.
You can tell Vitamin A is good cuz it’s the first one. We need to get back to basics in this country. You ever heard of a kid getting too many A’s?
Git yer fiddly science outta my child-rearin!
Vitamin S ™. That’s one better than Vitamin A.
