President Trump Pressures RFK Jr. to Reduce Childhood Vaccines Amid Autism Concerns
President Trump has reportedly pressured Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to reduce childhood vaccine recommendations, driven by Trump's belief in a debunked link between vaccines and autism. Despite scientific consensus that vaccines do not cause autism, Trump has expressed disappointment with Kennedy's progress in reducing vaccine schedules. This pressure comes amid rising measles cases in the U.S., reaching a 30-year high. A federal judge recently blocked Kennedy's attempt to cut vaccine recommendations, following a lawsuit from the American Academy of Pediatrics. The administration's stance has sparked concern among public health experts, who warn of the dangers of undermining vaccination efforts.
