77 Nobel Laureates Urge Senate to Reject RFK Jr. over Anti-Vaccine Stance
Dec 9, 2024, 11:20 PM
Seventy-seven Nobel Prize laureates have signed a letter on Monday urging U.S. senators to reject the confirmation of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services. The unprecedented move marks the first time in recent memory that Nobel laureates have united against a Cabinet nominee. The scientists express concerns over Kennedy's anti-vaccine stance, his opposition to public health measures like water chlorination, and his lack of scientific credentials. President-elect Donald Trump's nomination of Kennedy has sparked warnings that his appointment could jeopardize public health and undermine U.S. leadership in health sciences. "These political attacks on science are very damaging," Nobel laureate Dr. Richard Roberts said. "You have to stand up and protect it."
