RFK Jr.'s Lawyer Aaron Siri Asks FDA to Revoke Polio Vaccine Approval and Pause 13 Other Vaccines for Trump Administration
Dec 13, 2024, 06:24 PM
Aaron Siri, the lawyer assisting Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in selecting federal health officials for the incoming Trump administration, has filed a petition with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to revoke its approval of the polio vaccine. This vaccine has historically protected millions from poliovirus, which can lead to paralysis or death. In addition to the polio vaccine, Siri's petition also seeks to pause the distribution of 13 other vaccines. Siri has been involved in various legal challenges against vaccine mandates and has a history of opposing vaccine approvals. His actions have raised concerns among public health advocates about the potential implications for vaccine trust and public health safety.
