Dr. Peter Hotez: "It's mostly the killing force, the one that killed 200,000 Americans overwhelmingly is a product now of the far right. You've got members of the House Freedom Caucus calling people like me medical brown shirts...you've got 2 US senators Ron Johnson of Wisconsin holding vaccine injury roundtables and senator Rand Pail targeting science and scientists. You had the CPAC conference conservatives: "First they're going to vaccinate you, then they're going to take your guns and your bibles."...the real tough one was Fox News amplifying it every night and this was documented by 2 groups, Media Matters and a research group out of Switzerland. The night time Fox News anchors every night falsely discredited the effectiveness and safety of vaccines. They filled their broadcast with the anti vaccine content. And so what happened was if you were going down that rabbit hole watching Fox News every night and everything else, you started to believe that the vaccines either didn't work, weren't safe and you didn't get vaccinated. and so many Americans paid for that with their lives...how do you say: "Don't buy into this one because it's going to kill you."
