Viewpoint: Health disaster ahead—Here is RFK, Jrs.’ 6-point plan to undermine the U.S. vaccination protection network that took decades to construct

[L]wyers, like RFK Jr., tend to approach data and studies very differently than scientists. While scientists test a hypothesis by doing experiments and studies to test it, potentially falsifying it—i.e., they care if the hypothesis is actually aligned with nature and reality and will reject it if it fails to stand up to experimental testing—lawyers are trying to make a case for they position that they are defending. To that end, they will cherry pick evidence to support their case and look for any way to denigrate or discredit evidence that does not.

This is exactly what RFK Jr. will do, but even more so. Now that he controls the CDC and NIH, he will be in a position to fund new research and cherry pick existing research that results in “evidence”—no matter how dubious—to support his policies, namely undermining confidence in vaccines and removing them from the market, and that is exactly what he will do.

[RFK, Jr.] will definitely take away at least some of your (and your children’s) vaccines, or do his damnedest to take them away, no matter how much his supporters ignoring his antivax stances try to delude themselves otherwise. Two main federal agencies now controlled by RFK Jr. in his role as HHS Secretary will be the focus of his efforts, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which oversees public health efforts, vaccine safety, and and the Food & Drug Administration.

…

[W]hat RFK Jr. will try to do to the vaccine system will far outweigh any potential good he could do in terms of public health by encouraging healthy eating and directing more research money to chronic disease. To my fellow physicians who, just because they like the superficial MAHA message RFK Jr. promotes about food, obesity, and chronic disease have in essence been in denial about how antivaccine RFK Jr. is and how much damage he can do to public health, I urge you: Wake up. You have been played.
