Not only is RFKj’s statement dangerously false, death isn’t the only bad outcome. ‘Healthy’ people can end up with chronic conditions & become permanently disabled. Even temporary disability can change someone’s life forever. Not to mention every infection is an opportunity for mutation.
The U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services has repeatedly claimed: “If you’re healthy, it’s almost impossible to die from an infectious disease in modern times.”

That is dangerously false.
