I'm not a medical expert but I feel like a 70 year old with a literal hole in his brain experiencing memory loss and at a higher than typical risk of stroke due to a heart condition...hits all the risks we're concerned about with the 77 year old and 81 year old.
Like it's not literally the age we're worried about, it's the memory issues and likelihood of dying that comes with it.
It was discovered apparently when he went in for mercury poisoning from eating too much tuna. Mercury poisoning… in an anti-vaxxer… who has cited mercury as a reason to avoid vaccines…
There's a person who has been living a mostly normal life with 90% of his brain missing. Perhaps we could just re-examine society's ableism and how we design our systems of government to allow single points of failure instead? RFK Jr. has terrible opinions, but also had them before having a literal brain worm.
I think you missed the part where he also admits he has memory problems because of it.
And that article is paywalled, but it has been reported that in his divorce deposition, he said his ability to earn money was affected by cognitive problems from it. Back in 2012.
It also says he had mercury poisoning (he claims it's from all the fish he ate), which is pretty fucking ironic considering this is the guy who went apeshit over a negligible bit of mercury in vaccines.
