‘Do not take medical advice from me’: RFK JR dodging the vaccine questions in Congress

US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Junior surprised the MPs during the Congress hearing on Wednesday and repeatedly refused to support childhood vaccinations and said that despite leading the country’s top public health agency, asked the public not to seek medical advice.During the hearing of a house appropriation committee, the rape was suppressed by Mark Pract, Kennedy asked if he would vaccinate his child against measles. “For measles? Perhaps for measles” he asked. According to the New York Times, “My opinion about vaccine is irrelevant. I don’t want to do that, but I don’t think people should seek medical advice from me.”

When Pokana told about chickenpox and polio vaccine, Kennedy dodged again. “I do not want to advise,” he said, despite taking care of agencies like CDC, who are responsible for issuing the recommendations of the vaccine. Kennedy later said, “I think what we are going to try to do is to meet professionals and opposition, risks and benefits, as we understand them, with replication studies.”

His reluctance was between a deteriorating measles outbreak in the US, including nationwide in more than 1,000 cases, including 709 in Texas alone. According to CBS News, two unnatural children have died. Kennedy’s refusal to support the vaccines attracted backlash, especially given its long history of promoting the vaccine doubt. Sen Chris Murphy told him, “Secretary of Health and Human Services is no longer recommending measles vaccines … I think it’s really dangerous,” the Guardian said.Kennedy’s comments also denied their April interview with CBS News, where he finally accepted the benefits of measles vaccine and said, “People should get measles vaccine, while still opposing the mandate.During the hearing, Kennedy also made misleading claims, stating that Europe does not use chickenpox vacancies, although 28 European countries do, with many national vaccination programs, according to the New York Times, Beyond the vaccines, Kennedy faced criticism for wider employees and budget cuts. They have abolished around 20,000 jobs and have performed $ 2.7 billion in research funding, including 31% deduction in cancer research. He defended these decisions, saying that an order of the court stopped him from discussing the restructuring plans. But Professor Lawrence Gostin of Georgetown’s law was quoted by the Guardian saying that Kennedy’s claim was “pure nonsense”.As the Republican Healthcare subsidies are cut and push to expand the tax deduction of Trump-era, the Congress budget office estimates that 13.7 million more US coverage may lose. The advocacy groups have warned that the proposed Medicade work requirements are designed to remove people from the program.Despite anarchy, Kennedy confirmed that he had restored some health programs including the World Trade Center Health Program and Black Lung Research after pushbacks from Republican MPs. Nevertheless, Democrats accused him of playing political favorite, in which the programs are alive. Rape Rosa Delero said, “Is there a special phone number if I want to prevent tobacco, lead poisoning?”
