In the late 1990's a study was published that purported to show a link between vaccines and autism. That study which has been completely debunked was latched onto by the likes of Jenny McCarthy and Robert Kennedy Jr. Given their high public profiles people bought into what they were selling. Which was debunked science. The doctor responsible for the study lost his medical license.
However that hasn't stop the conspiracy theory that continues to grow around the idea that vaccines cause autism.
(The first link leads to the explanation for how the study was debunked.)
During his presidential campaign, Kennedy developed a national profile for his criticism of the Covid vaccines and childhood immunizations.
President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday picked Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an anti-vaccine activist who dropped out of the 2024 presidential race and endorsed Trump, to lead the Department of Health and Human Services.
Trump made the announcement on his social media platform, Truth Social.
"I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS)," he wrote. "For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health."
JKK Jr. is going to destroy health in America as we know it. Leeches and bleedings will once again be considered the cutting edge of healthcare thanks to him.
