RFK Jr. confirms he ordered CDC website changes on vaccines and autism
Health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. personally ordered the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to alter language on a webpage that said vaccines do not cause autism, he told The New York Times in an interview Thursday.
The updated CDC website now says that the statement “vaccines do not cause autism,” is “not an evidence-based claim,” a position at odds with years of scientific consensus and researchers who have investigated this issue at length. It also now says that government health authorities have ignored the link between vaccines and autism.
