RFK Jr.’s CDC Wants to Do Its Own Research on Vaccines and Autism

The CDC’s decision to commission the study appears to be driven by Trump’s Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a notorious vaccine skeptic who has long suggested, without much evidence, that vaccines may cause developmental disabilities in children.

During his confirmation hearings, Kennedy refused to say that vaccines don’t cause autism—despite dozens of peer-reviewed, high-quality studies that have not found such a link. He even touted a statistic claiming that autism rates “have gone from 1 in 10,000” to “one in 34.”
