I have written this post in response to this one:
https://steemit.com/vaccines/@aydansrecovery/why-i-don-t-trust-robert-kennedy-jr-1815d6e0d28b1
First, let me say that I respect 
I was personally vaccine injured when I entered Santa Monica College a semester early, when I had a flu vaccine required for admission, and nearly died as a result.
I had just turned seventeen, was in excellent health and fitness, and at my proper weight. I had been on my high school tennis team, which was undefeated (not because of me), rode my bike pretty much everywhere, bodysurfed regularly, and walked a lot on the beach with my Newfoundland, Ebony. I was in great shape.
My mom and I moved to Santa Monica in order for me to attend the college, and as she was a professional realtor at the time, working long hours, the move itself primarily fell to me, with the exception of the few large pieces of furniture that I was unable to move by myself. We finished the move on January 1st, and I started college a few days later, two or three days following the vaccination.
The first day of school was unremarkable, and I went to all my classes, noting that it seemed pretty much like high school, but dutifully introducing myself around all the same.
On the second day of school, I was quite literally so sick that I almost could not get out of bed, and damned near couldn't even make it to the kitchen or the bathroom. I was weak, out of breath and aching, my head was splitting, and for the most part I could barely move. Biking was out of the question.
My bedroom was a garage apartment I loved, set up by the previous tenant, complete with a loft bed, and I couldn't even make it up the stairs to the loft. Since we had set up the second bedroom in the house as a library, I took residence on the living room couch, and I slept nearly 24/7, which alarmed my mom because it was so unlike me.
We had Kaiser health care, as my dad was a schoolteacher, and my mom took me to the doctor immediately, only to be told that there was little they could do. The flu I contracted was I believe the Scotland flu , which was not the flu for which I was vaccinated, but the vaccination suppressed my immune system and left me vulnerable.
I was flat on my back for the better part of six weeks, and it took me another six full weeks to regain anything resembling my former stamina. That was the flu that taught me why so many people die from the flu and its complications, because I was so sick, and so bone weary from constant coughing, that I simply didn't care if I lived or died, and death would have been a huge relief.
So, thanks to the required flu vaccine, I basically missed my first semester of college, and although I did attend classes once I was able, some of my classes were necessarily repeated the following semester.
I will never voluntarily submit to another flu vaccine. I value my life.
Those who want to make it mandatory have NOT read the science, or if they have, they either don't understand it, or they don't give a damn about the people they are inflicting it upon.
On to the reason for my post:
For the record, RFK Jr. has been speaking out in opposition to mandatory vaccines for years.
In the venue in California, as stated in the above article, he was specifically asking that parents' rights to refuse to have their children vaccinated NOT be taken away, but protected, until the vaccines themselves can be proven to be safe and effective.
Yes, he stated that people need to be able to trust the health regulatory system and vaccines, but that it precisely because they are NOT trustworthy now, which he has repeatedly made clear in his statements over the years.
As for the Tucker Carlson video linked in your post, all I got was an error message: "This video is unavailable." I did go ahead and watch it on YouTube.
As for RFK Jr. not bothering to address the issue of herd immunity, that is most likely because he is well aware that the whole idea of herd immunity is bullshit,and, like most vaccine science, unproven. In fact, most diseases for which vaccines are touted as having saved the day, were ALREADY ON THEIR WAY OUT prior to the vaccines being introduced.
The fact remains that, despite numerous studies by pro-vaccine researchers, there is not a single vaccine PROVEN to have prevented a single disease. Read that again. Not one. THAT is the truth of vaccine science.
And, as was discovered in one alarming study, it is probable that vaccinated children may actually pose MORE of a health risk to non-vaccinated children than vice versa:

I have long agreed with Dr. Blaylock's take on herd immunity being a myth, and, as noted above, I have my own personal vaccine horror story that keeps me determined that I will never take another flu vaccine for as long as I live.
When asked about herd immunity in the Tucker Carlson interview, RFK Jr. correctly responded that herd immunity only really applies to readily communicable diseases such as measles. So, in fact, he DID answer the question, albeit briefly.
What he NEXT addressed, however, was the DPT (diptheria, pertussis and tetanus) vaccine given to children in Africa; after, I might add, the vaccine was found to be dangerous, and is no longer given to children in this country or in Europe.
But it's still okay to give it to babies in Africa. Let that sink in for a moment.
A group of Danish scientists, whose study was impeccably designed, did a study of vaccinated versus unvaccinated children, the kind that the U.S. pharmaceutical industry insists is "immoral" to do, because it would "deprive" the unvaccinated children of the protection of the vaccines.
What the Danish scientists found, however, was that the children vaccinated with the DPT vaccine were TEN TIMES MORE LIKELY TO DIE in the two months following the vaccine, and that far more children died following the vaccine than died from diptheria, pertussis and tetanus, the diseases being vaccinated against, COMBINED.
I don't know about you, but I'm guessing that, having a vaccine injured child, you might agree that that was a more important point to bring out into the open than to belabor the comparatively minor non-issue of herd immunity.
He also addressed the fact that we are giving infants, on their very first day, mere moments after their birth, a vaccine against Hepatitis B, a sexually transmitted disease that can ONLY be contracted by sexual contact or the sharing of IV needles. Yes, really.
As Del Bigtree said best, I don't know how you raise your kids, but I'm guessing you're not worried about sexual promiscuity or IV drug use in your newborn child. I certainly wouldn't be.
And, since the U.S. government sold their collective souls for Big Pharma bucks, and the childhood vaccine schedule suddenly required DOZENS of vaccines for compliance, our infant and child mortality rates have skyrocketed, in direct correlation to the vastly greater numbers of vaccines given in early childhood.
Del Bigtree, in case you don't know, is the producer of "Vaxxed," and is an outspoken opponent of our current vaccine schedule for children. If you haven't seen his AMAZING AND PHENOMENAL talk during the 2017 "Truth About Cancer Live" summit, I HIGHLY recommend you watch it:
If you want a whole lot more supporting data for our side of things, I strongly suggest that you check out Green Med Info, as the site has a whole host of the latest relevant research:
http://www.greenmedinfo.com/disease/vaccine-induced-toxicity
I am not yet a paid member of Green Med Info, but I soon will be. Sayer Ji, who started the website, is providing a wealth of information, much of it consisting of peer-reviewed research papers, that are all but unavailable elsewhere outside the medical or scientific community.
And a LOT of it is provided for free, as a public service.
The sheer number of publications is mind-boggling, and if you can think of a health issue, it is undoubtedly covered somewhere. It is truly an amazing and incredibly valuable site, and a compendium of medical and scientific literature that many professional researchers have come to view as invaluable to their work.
I want to fully support his efforts.
Best of luck to you in your ongoing efforts, and thanks again for helping to bring this issue to light.
