New records challenge RFK Jr.'s Samoa trip claims about vaccines

New documents obtained in a lawsuit contradict RFK Jr.’s assertion that his 2018 Samoa trip was unrelated to vaccines, showing he proposed an independent health-informatics assessment of MMR vaccines and discussed vaccine safety with Samoa’s leaders. The revelations align with ongoing criticism of his anti-vaccine activism and raise questions about the trip’s influence amid Samoa’s measles outbreak and vaccine-policy debates in Congress.
