U.S. Measles Outbreaks Grow Amid Federal Funding Cuts, RFK Jr. Mixed Messaging on Vaccines
RFK Jr. claims 'leaky' measles vaccine wanes over time. Scientists say he's wrong April 16, 2025 Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said the measles vaccine is "leaky" because its effectiveness wanes over time, something medical experts dispute. ... Kennedy suggested the vaccine effectiveness wanes at a rate of nearly 5% a year – an assertion not backed by scientists. ... "People get measles because they don't vaccinate," Kennedy said Tuesday during a press conference. "They get measles because the vaccine wanes. The vaccines wane about 4.8% per year ... So, you know, it's a leaky vaccine, and that problem is always going to be around." ... Scientists disputed Kennedy's claim that the measles vaccine's effectiveness wanes over time. "He's dead wrong," said Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. "The measles vaccine protects you for the rest of your life. The notion that it's a leaky vaccine is dead wrong." (more) https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2025/04/15/rfk-jr-measles-vaccine-leaky-claims/83099634007/ -
