"As U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. continues making vaccines in general and COVID-19 inoculations in particular harder to get, blame for any resulting deaths lying with him and his boss, President Donald Trump, will become clearer and clearer. That also applies to the current outbreak of whooping cough (or pertussis), of which 10,082 cases were reported by the end of May, killing five infants."
"For years, he was America's foremost critic of vaccines of most types, from long-established preventives like the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) inoculations required for most schoolchildren to the newer COVID-19 antidotes. We know New York City and parts of New Jersey experienced such high death tolls early in the COVID pandemic that hospitals and morgues used refrigerated trucks to store piled-up bodies."
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as U.S. Health Secretary has made vaccines, including COVID-19 shots, harder to obtain, increasing responsibility for preventable deaths. A whooping cough outbreak produced 10,082 reported cases by the end of May and killed five infants, prompting Senator Bill Cassidy to urge mass vaccinations; Kennedy had not responded and the outbreak continued. Much future blame for COVID-19 fatalities is likely to fall on Kennedy and President Donald Trump given Kennedy’s longstanding criticism of vaccines, including MMR and COVID-19 vaccines. Early pandemic surges produced overwhelmed hospitals, refrigerated trucks for bodies, and mass burials; a new COVID-19 variant is now spreading.
