Dr. Edwards should lose his medical licence and be banned from working with children forever. How sociopathic do you have to be to be working whilst knowing you are carrying one of the most infectious diseases in existence? This is utterly inexcusable, especially since he is supposedly a qualified doctor and should be well aware of the danger he is putting his patients in.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

AFAIK it's the most known infectious.
Covid, or at least one of the omicron variants is next i think, but one might argue its more since the infection cycle was faster leading to larger numbers, but in terms 1 person infecting X people, it's Measles.
Measles is more lethal to buy itself, if it causes meningitis or encephalitis, secondarily it suppresses the immune system
Does seem like it would go against the hypocratic oath. That said, I leave that up to the medical board to determine since I am not a doctor. But it should at least be investigated by them.
Dude. WTF is going on in America.
Forty years of Republican brain rot and systemic cutting of education.
If your country has conservatives that look up to the United States, stamp it out now.
Honestly seems like y'all could use some development aid...
We dismantled the department of education
And lead paint and leaded fuel everywhere
NOTHING GOOD
Send help.
Probably best you don't send help to the red states. Trump cultists would probably shoot at the people trying to help them like they do with FEMA.
Well you see we recently discovered that russia won the cold war. And now we have to reset the country to 1920 in order for them to get ahead.
Idk. I think both sides actually lost, it just did what is ultimately very predictable and created the perfect conditions for fascism

Everything I was assured by my entire friend group "Couldn't happen outside of my paranoid delusions."
I'm very familiar with the world of academia. To be honest, many of them/us are surprisingly stupid, but for a reason. To get a doctorate in a field is no easy task. Your lack of knowledge in much else is because you spent all you had being knowledgeable in a specific thing.
So even if you think a doctor is a stupid person in general, there is NO EXCUSE for them being stupid in the one thing they spent years becoming an expert in.
So, is this "doctor" actually holding a doctorate in this field? Let me check....
...god, he has the most generic name it's impossible to know.
Fun fact. RFK forced his brother to take cocaine and demerol. His brother would later get addicted, and die of an overdose. Also, he sounds like that from years of heroin abuse.
For what it's worth on the voice thing, assuming that's what "he sounds like that" refers to: https://www.npr.org/2025/01/29/nx-s1-5279176/rfk-voice-spasmodic-dysphonia
That's the result of a rare neurological condition known as spasmodic dysphonia, which has afflicted Kennedy for decades.
If you've got any evidence that it was heroin that caused that neurological condition I'm all ears, but we have a pretty reliable source on this one.
He's been a severe heroin addict for 14 years. It isn't uncommon for drug addicts to have motor dysfunction (https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3966544/). He's put out himself that it is spasmodic dysphonia, which is a disease in which the cause is not well understood (ironically, it may be associated with measles). Importantly, this information was released when he was running for president. It is probably better to name a 'disorder' rather than to say I broke my brain from years for substance abuse.
There's a behind the bastard podcast that goes into detail about RFK's life. It's truly awful.
i read that he got hepatitis c from sharing needles and that screwed up his voice
No, that's fake news
He got hepatitis from all the rapes he's actually done
Is Typhoid Mary getting a statue as well?
Measles mary
Seriously who doesnt think he is a nurgle cultist at this point? This is like text book Nurgle follower.
I don't have a name to provide (as the "person harmed") but if you know of anyone that he visited while infected here's the complaint form: https://public3.tmb.state.tx.us/TMB_SSO_Complaint/default.aspx
I would say "extraordinary criminal".
What a hero. /s
