COVID Quote by Robert F. Kennedy Jr
““Throughout 2020, before vaccines were available, 99.9 percent of people's natural immune systems protected their owners from severe illness and death. The CDC and World Health Organization, indeed all global health authorities, have recognized that healthy people, with healthy immune systems, bear minimal risk from COVID. Indeed, many people, according to our health authorities, have an immune response sufficient that they don't even know they have COVID. Maloy's pronouncement hat humans cannot fight off COVID-19 without a vaccine is misinformation in its purest form.””
