Trump Considers Revising Childhood Vaccinations with HHS Nominee RFK Jr., Citing Autism Concerns
Dec 12, 2024, 02:50 PM
President-elect Donald Trump has indicated he will consider revising childhood vaccination programs, potentially removing some vaccines if they are deemed dangerous or not beneficial. This statement was made during an interview with TIME magazine, where Trump also mentioned he would have a significant discussion with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., his nominee for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), about ending these programs. Kennedy, known for his skepticism towards vaccines, has been criticized for promoting misinformation, including the debunked claim linking vaccines to autism. Trump's comments come at a time when the U.S. Senate is preparing for Kennedy's confirmation hearings, with concerns raised by public health experts and Nobel laureates about the potential impact of his appointment on national health policy.
