HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. was expected to attend the child's funeral, which is scheduled for Sunday, according to a spokesperson familiar with the plans.

Polio Bob is heading to Texas to admire his handiwork.

They're only kids, right?

Kids die all the time.

No more cause to be concerned about them than four soldiers dying in training accidents.

Why? Guilty conscience?

And they are not fetuses so who cares if they die? They had their chance. Right?

Criminal negligence by parents is completely acceptable. At least they were not aborted. Now THAT would be a sin worthy of the death penalty.

Anyway it's only 2 deaths soon to be zero!

(as soon as Co-President Elmo and Wormbrain can get to the CDC database)

If I read it correctly, Daisy was unvaccinated, no reason given. Other sources showed people standing outside a Mennonite church, but I couldn't find that Daisy's parents were members.

Wormbrain intends to strap the corpse to the roof of his car and bring it home.
