Summary
Donald Trump plans to discuss potentially ending childhood vaccination programs with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., his nominee for Health and Human Services.
Trump expressed openness to revisiting vaccine policies, citing concerns about autism rates, despite scientific consensus debunking links between vaccines and autism.
Critics warn reducing vaccinations could lead to outbreaks of preventable diseases like measles.
Kennedy, known for questioning vaccine safety, would oversee the CDC if confirmed.
Public health experts remain concerned about the implications.
Ah yes, the ol’ classic vaccination / autism correlation. It makes perfect sense, I mean I’m autistic and then I got vaccinated. Definitely a connection here, let’s ban the 'tism and solve all the problems.
While the link between pollution and autism is very clear, but people still vote for drill baby drill.
