San Francisco, CA - Vinay Prasad, the highly influential but often misunderstood medical doctor recently appointed as Director of the FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, has announced plans to publish a book of poetry for children that was inspired by his experience as a critic of the overbearing and ultimately harmful government response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

"This was a logical next step after the success of my children's book last year," Prasad, an oncologist and health researcher at the University of California, San Francisco, and author of Cora's Coronavirus Conniption, explained. "I've sat near several children, on buses and once at petting zoo, and I know how they think. I know that the best way to reach them is through the magic of the written word, especially when some of those words rhyme, such as the ones at the end of the sentences."
Prasad has made it clear that he believes the American response to the pandemic was a total failure in our duty to think of the children. His first book took the reader on an educational journey through the eyes of 5-year-old Cora, who is experiencing the early months of the pandemic in California, and included a foreword by Robert Kennedy Jr.. Kennedy, the current secretary of Health and Human Services and home to a variety of parasitic worms, described the book as a harrowing tale of hardship and ultimate redemption. "By pushing back against the masks, the quarantines, and the vaccine forced on her friends and family by government leaders, society, and our Big Pharma overlords, Cora demonstrates more bravery than seen in millions of adults in this country."
"Children are, in no uncertain terms, our future," Prasad revealed. "They deserve to be taught well, but also, and this is based on several randomized and controlled trials, they should be allowed to lead the way, their burden perhaps eased by a sense of pride given to them by us, the adults, when they are shown the beauty inside them all."
In addition to his books, articles, newsletters, and social media outreach, the busy physician and science communicator has also released a line of microwave meals. According to Prasad, people shouldn't have to choose between their career and their diet. "When you're busy saving children from the slavery of unproven vaccine boosters, you don't always have time to cook. That's why I designed my meals to prevent a Holocaust of hunger with delicious but healthy options that are ready to eat after only two minutes in the microwave."
The following is an excerpt from one of Dr. Prasad's poems, "A Child's Lament":
My doctor says it's just a poke
He says a funny little joke
While Mommy signs the dotted line
And promises I'll be just fine
We do not want it in our arms
Until there is data on the harms
And what about our little hearts
And other special body parts
Who speaks for those who have no voice
Who fights for those who have no choice
Here lies a child who once was told
A vaccine helps them to grow old
The ground I'm buried in is cold...so cold
