RFK Jr.'s Lawyer Seeks to Revoke Approval for Polio, Hepatitis B, and 13 Other Vaccines
Dec 13, 2024, 01:46 PM
Aaron Siri, a lawyer assisting Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in selecting candidates for top health positions in the incoming Trump administration, has petitioned the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to revoke its approval of the polio vaccine. This move is part of a broader campaign against various vaccines, where Siri has also sought to pause the distribution of 13 other vaccines, including the hepatitis B vaccine, challenged Covid-19 vaccine mandates, and demanded transparency in vaccine approvals. His efforts are largely on behalf of the Informed Consent Action Network (ICAN), an anti-vaccine nonprofit closely aligned with Kennedy. Despite Kennedy's public statements that he does not intend to restrict access to vaccines, his partnership with Siri raises concerns among public health leaders about the future of vaccine policy.
