What's interesting is that before eliminating funding for mRNA vaccines, Kennedy didn't bother examining any science at all. He just had his staff throw together a bibliography that demonstrated the exact opposite of what he was claiming. This article was written by an actual infectious disease physician and not a substack crank, so of course the anti-vaxxers on this forum, who know nothing about science, won't even bother to read it, I'm sure.

This is not the first time that the U.S. HHS under RFK Jr. has produced public statements / documents with bogus claims and/or sources, including mischaracterizing past research and at times making up non-existent content and/or authors.

 

Examples:

White House MAHA Report may have garbled science by using AI, experts say

 

The report, led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., was intended to address the reasons for the decline in Americans’ life expectancy

 

"Some of the citations that underpin the science in the White House’s sweeping “MAHA Report” appear to have been generated using artificial intelligence, resulting in numerous garbled scientific references and invented studies, AI experts said Thursday.

...

Other citations include the wrong author, and several studies cited by the extensive health report do not exist at all, a fact first reported by the online news outlet NOTUS on Thursday morning. [emphasis added]

...]

“The MAHA Report: Making Our Children Healthy Again,” ... was led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has a history of misstating science, and written in response to an executive order from President Donald Trump."

And of course, his claims against mRNA vaccines have been called out as false and unsupported by multiple fact checking agencies, including the Associated Press, Newsguard and FactCheck.org:

Irrelevant.

He's obviously an incompetent quack beholden to big science.
