Summary
During his Senate confirmation hearing for Health and Human Services Secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dismissed scientific evidence on vaccine safety despite claiming he would follow the data.
He rejected studies debunking vaccine-autism links, downplayed COVID-19 vaccine effectiveness, and avoided endorsing the HPV vaccine.
His remarks on racial differences in vaccination raised further concerns.
Lawmakers and health experts criticized his reliance on flawed research, warning his leadership could erode public trust and revive preventable diseases.
His confirmation remains contentious.
Might have something to do with the glaring fact that he is mentally defective and completely untrained in anything related to science or medicine.
Could also be the worm eating his brain.
Footage from inside RFK Jr’s head.
I agree that he is dimwitted and not fit to make decisions. In fact I think he needs 24/7 supervision by a competent adult. I disagree with your nomenclature ‘mentally defective’ though. He is incompetent, uneducated, a liar, an abuser, and has reduced mental capacity due to a brainworm and being a spoiled rich kid.
Could also be the thousands each week he was receiving from his anti-vaccine non profit.
Don’t forget, he killed a bunch of Samoan kids with an anti vaccine campaign in the region in 2018-19 and then just left without consequence. He is going to do this here.
83 people died. If a proportionate number had died in the United States, he’d have killed 129,348 people.
Oh well then its going to be much worse here. We have a bird flu pandemic brewing amongst the agencies going dark. We are fucked.
It needs to be presented by some schmuck in front of a computer saying “this is what they don’t want you to know!” Then he’ll believe it.
OP said schmucks, not long suffering journalists of impeccable integrity.
Oh wow, who ever would have thought that republicans saying they want evidence is a fucking lie and they just wanted an excuse to do shitty things.

Classic republicunt. “Nu uh dat doesnt kount!”
contentious?! Im so sick of these options that could not be worse if someone were raised and trained to be as crap at a job as possible.
Of course he denied it. He’s a fucking moron.
What?! The science denier denied science?!
Just means he’s perfect for the current gop and Maga people
Yeah he fits right in, but for fuck’s sake think of the children.
I am officially middle aged now, that’s the first time I’ve brought that old chestnut out without joking.
And they keep wondering why birthrates are down
That’s why they want to stop Healthcare for women. Get rid of sex ed, because teens will have sex. Get rid of profilactics. All part of the plan.
That and help keep the poor poor
Yup that too
As George Carlin put it so naked and simple-
“Live babies make dead soldiers”
He didn’t logic his way into his stance, so logic ain’t pulling him out. Money or fear might.
Or a second, hungrier, brain worm
I hope it’s brain worms all the way down!
A past boss of mine used to say, “Did God say so?”
However, in his case it wasn’t because he denied science and believed that the Bible was the only “knowledge” you needed, but rather that he believed God was the only authority who could overrule him.
He was actually a generally rational person, but if you wanted to contradict him, you’d need a series of peer reviewed, repeatable, double-blind studies proving he was wrong. And even then, he’d probably want God to comment.
When will they get that what they warn or worry about is exactly what Trump and his footmen want?
