Recent recordings from private autism meetings reveal that Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Trump's nominee for the Department of Health and Human Services, has made controversial statements regarding vaccination programs. In the recordings, Kennedy compared the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) vaccine initiatives to 'Nazi death camps' and called for the imprisonment of researchers involved in these programs. Over the past six years, he has also likened the act of vaccinating children to abuses by the Catholic Church, describing the CDC’s vaccine division as a 'fascist enterprise' and accusing it of deliberately harming children. These remarks have raised significant concerns about his views on public health policy as he prepares to lead the agency responsible for overseeing such programs.
