Washington – The person expecting President Donald Trump to become the health secretary asked repeatedly to show “data” or “science” that they show vaccines – but when an influential Republican Senator did so, they dismissed it Done
Robert f. Kennedy Junior spent two days this week, insisting the senators that they were not anti-vaccines. He said that he supports vaccination instead and would follow science under the supervision of the Department of $ 1.7 Trillion Health and Human Services, which, among other duties, supervise the vaccine research, approval and recommendations.
But Kennedy repeatedly refused to accept scientific consent that childhood vaccines do not cause autism and Kovid -19 vaccines have saved the lives of millions of people, and they wrongly said that there is a good government’s good The vaccine is not safety monitoring. Ignoring mainstream science, he cited flawed or tangent research to make his points, such as black people may require separate vaccines than whites.
His reactions expressed concern among health experts that Kennedy lacks the basic skills required for a job.
“He ignores science. That cherry-pix sometimes studies cheating. Sometimes he studies well and takes very few pieces of them, ”Dr. of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Scene O’Leeri said.
They are worried that Kennedy can cause more damage to public confidence in vaccines and “We will see the return of diseases that we have not really seen much and unfortunately children will suffer.”
Kennedy “In many ways, to understand some details about science and evidence, demonstrated their ability to understand, which I think they would really need to know,” Dr. of the American Public Health Association. Georges Benjamin said.
Science on vaccine is clear for doctors and scientists – but not for Kennedy
Louisiana Republican and physician, Sen Bill Cassidi stated that science is clear that measles and other childhood vaccines are safe and not associated with autism.
Kennedy said that if the data is shown, he would recommend the vaccines and “I will not only do this, but I will apologize for any statement that otherwise mislead people.”
Therefore, Cassidi took out and read a certain scientific conclusions that vaccines do not cause autism. Kennedy reprimanded him, instead recently mentioned a paper that outside experts have fundamentally called flawless – and Cassidi agreed “some issues” – in an attempt to combat the decades of rigorous studies. .
The Senator explains his history of reducing confidence in vaccines with “baseless or misleading arguments”-and “a shadow on the legacy of President Trump”, if people die of vaccine-renowned diseases So they should become a health secretary.
A Democrat from New Hampshire, Sen Maggi Hasan said that “to brainstorm” again systematic and settled science is a real-world Ramirashan-to remove wealth and time that spent finding the real cause of autism May go.
Kennedy ignored science by showing Kovid -19 vaccines, saved millions of lives
Kennedy claimed that there is no good monitoring system to know that Kovid -19 vaccines are safe and lifetime.
The US tracks the vaccine protection through several surveillance systems, including electronic medical records from the list of health systems. Disease control and prevention centers also check how vaccines fare internationally, such as the large database of Israel and UK during the epidemic helped to strengthen that new MRNA vaccines were safe and deaths from Koronwirus Was doing less
“You are applying for the job – clearly you should know,” said Democratic Sen Burney Sanders of Vermont. “The scientific community has established that Kovid vaccines have saved the lives of millions and you are doubting.”
Kennedy declines to a vaccine returning that prevents cancer in women
AAP’s O’Lary said there are about 35,000 cases of cancer related to HPV virus that can be prevented by the vaccine, including 4,000 deaths per year. “We are already seeing a decrease in the number of cancer cases related to HPV as a result of HPV vaccination.”
Kennedy did not directly respond when he was asked if he claims that HPV vaccine could cause cancer or other disease. Instead, he brought a pending case and suggested to a jury-scientists.
Kennedy’s unfounded comment about race and vaccine schedule
Maryland Democrats, Sen Angela Alsobrox asked Kennedy about pre -comments that black people may require a separate vaccination program compared to whites. Alsobrox, who is black, asked how Kennedy thought he should have been vaccinated in a different way.
Kennedy referred to some earlier papers, which suggested that people from the African-American dynasty had a strong immune response to measles and rubella vaccines compared to white people.
Vaccination recommendations are not based on the race, but biological factors such as the age of someone and a specific disease. Some studies suggest that black American hesitate more than whites to achieve some vaccines.
“It’s very dangerous,” Alsobrox told Kennedy.
“There is no evidence that there is a need to have a separate vaccine schedule based on the race,” Dr. Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security. Amesh Edelja said. Such statements can wrongly assume different populations that “Okay, perhaps I don’t need that much vaccine” as recommended.
