Kennedy allies quietly seed vaccine-skeptic agenda inside federal health agencies
TL;DR Summary
A Washington Post investigation shows RFK Jr.’s vaccine-skeptic allies are quietly retooling the federal vaccine ecosystem by pursuing a revived vaccine advisory panel, creating a CDC Office of Science, and directing vaccine-safety research to study schedules and potential links to conditions like autism. The effort aims to embed his agenda within NIH, FDA, and CDC decision-making, while the White House pushes to reduce childhood vaccines and a court blocks some changes. The moves suggest Kennedy’s influence could shape vaccine policy long after public controversies.
