Yah while I'm aware of the situation and what's been said, what has been said wasn't exactly from a highly reputable source, it wasn't even from the DHHS, it was someone who "talked to" RFK, and somehow every news outlet picked it up.
That all said, it could indeed happen, the administration is unhinged and a spike in covid deaths would be great for their plan of manufactured chaos, but they also have a much longer track-record of leaking crazy implications in order to fuck with the valuation of stocks.
They may also be planning to do the Chairman Trump thing again and leverage their threats for a 10% cut of Moderna and Pfizer's profits. I just don't see them cutting off a profitable company for no other reason than an-anti vax narrative they never really cared about, and just pushed to fleece the country's stupidest fucks.
All in all, it's way too unverified and unpredictable to know for sure what's going to happen, however this infographic/poster thing is really terrible. It's framed like an announcement, posted in first-person, and has no links or sources. It's so terrible I wouldn't be at all surprised if someone in the administration made it and leaked it also.
Go get your boosters/vaccines and your kid's vaccines anyway, it shouldn't take this to do the right thing.
You complete me.
And you complete a Snickers!
