"Vaccines are one of the greatest public health success stories of all time.
Over the past 50 years, they’ve saved an estimated 154 million lives. But in
the US, both access to vaccines and public trust in them are being
systematically undermined – not by conspiracy theorists online, but from within
the highest levels of government.
In January 2025, Robert F. Kennedy Jr – long associated with vaccine
misinformation – was confirmed as US health secretary. Despite being pressed
during his Senate confirmation hearings, Kennedy insisted he was not
anti-vaccine and pledged to maintain scientific standards.
Seven months later, his actions tell a different story.
Kennedy has launched a sweeping assault on the US vaccine infrastructure:
gutting oversight committees, sowing doubt about settled science, politicising
ingredient safety, limiting access to vaccines and halting funding for
research. His strategy doesn’t involve outright bans. But the cumulative effect
may prove just as damaging."
