Hey, I don’t want to alarm anyone, but....we should all be alarmed. This kind of tracking is how the Nazis were able to kidnap and hide the fact that they were murdering differently abled children, well before the camps were built.

The National Institutes of Health is amassing private medical records from a number of federal and commercial databases to give to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s new effort to study #autism, the #NIH's top official said Monday.
