Is this RFKs way of avoiding accountability?.
"My opinions about vaccines are irrelevant," Kennedy said. "I don't think people should be taking advice, medical advice from me. I don't want to give advice." Woodruff, an immunologist and assistant professor at Emory University, told Newsweek that Kennedy's lack of more strongly endorsing factual, scientific data is "disingenuous" and puts scientific officials along with Americans at risk. https://www.newsweek.com/rfk-kennedy-measles-vaccines-medical-advice-2072251
For his position, to make such statement, is weak. It’s like saying everyone would decide what’s right for ourselves. He places the ball in our own court while he should be the midfielder or the center to lead the ball and pass it around. Why not everyone play as you desire, no one has a fixed position, if you have an opportunity to score, go ahead and score. May God fill those in leadership wisdom to lead boldly without compromising.
I believe he is entitled to his opinion and has a right to say it. He is telling you to do your own research and do what you think is right. If you can't understand that, then maybe you need to find a different profession.
And there is factual evidence that some vaccines do cause defects. And you can listen to 50 different Medical professionals and get 50 different opinions, just because the person you quoted agrees with you, I could find 20 others that disagree with him. I got covid after I got one shot, and Biden has had all the boosters and keeps getting it, so it proves that it does not keep you from getting it.
Democrats have actually changed the definition of vaccine to fit the covid shot. It is not a vaccine, it is like a flu shot.
And the flu "shot" is a vaccine!!
Damn is you do and damn if you don’t. If he gave you his opinion, they you people would have said, “well you are not a doctor”. He said it right, it’s not his opinion because he is not qualified to do so, he depends on his experts, then he communicates it to everyone. People use the excuse of what he said in the past to discredit him, for god’s sake he has only been in charge for 6 months, give the guy a break. We have many issues with the FDA, they recently ruled that chemical based coloring it will no longer be used, the next thing is fructose in our drinks, why is coke and Pepsi allowed to use those, where they don’t in the rest of the world. The use of antibiotics in animal is also an issue. Give the guy a chance to make things right. I am not saying everything he does or will do is correct but it’s too early to make a fuss.

Well I'd guess they certainly didn't vote for the guy who just put 4 anti-vaxxers on the vaccine recommendation board.
RFKis correcf. Look no further than the lies Fauci told us about the covid vax, 6 feet distance, and masks and too many of us bought it and lived it! I did not! Not to mention he made a hell of a $$ in the process.
Yeah, he followed the science alright….that’s why Biden, or his wife, had to pardon him before he was charged for all his lies and misleading the nation for his financial gain!
You know what...I'm okay with it. We were LIED TO by the 'Scientists'. Covid times changed things to. And science DOES change. The vaccines HAVE changed. The vaccines I had are different than the ones my kids have. 'Data' is manipulated by money. Big Pharma lies and makes a lot of money on vaccines.
Imagine the head coach of a football team saying, "I don't think my players should be taking my advice on how to play." smh
Actually a head football coach directs a group of experts under him
Line coach
Linebacker coach
Defensive backs
Kickers
Etc.
The head coach develops the game plan and ask the assistant coach to execute in their area of expertise.
Not a RFK fan but he makes good points on things mom’s have know for decades
Food dye
Ingredients in food
Etc.

It’s absolutely never hard to stick to the science.
RFK is in charge of our/this country health and wellness. The Secretary of HHS leads the Department of Health and Human Services. The HHS dept is the primary US agency for safeguarding Americans' health and delivering crucial human services. God help us all! 🤦🏻♀️
Of course it is.
Woodruff is simply wrong.
Yeah, just like Fauci.
I had a friend recently post the video and suggested that RFK should have a medical degree. I disagree. Kennedy is the 26th HHS Secretary, there have only been 3 or 4 HHS Secretaries with medical degrees. There have been twice that, who were Lawyers (RFK. Having a degree at all isn't even required. We have had a swimmer, a farmer, a football player and everything in-between. So suggesting he should have a Medical Degree is a hard ask to change the constitution. That being said, his job is to advises the president about health care policy issues and public health measures. This should be done by gathering data from professionals, which he has done. He is not a Dr. and should not be answering medical questions unrelated to data information. I believe that is the point he is making. I think he's giving an honest answer. Does anyone actually think he (a Lawyer) should be answering medical questions?
A medical degree? No, not necessary.
Opinions grounded in actual medical science should probably be a minimum standard, though. Pretty low bar to clear.
It's also possible that avoiding cutting the head off of dead whales, leaving dead bears in central park, and swimming in sewage would lend him a bit more credibility.

If you supported Fauci’s proven lies and now say follow the science you’re at odds with yourself.
Fauci had a weak relationship with the truth
RFK seems to have problems with stability
His opinions on vaccines are extremely relevant given his position.
his general lack of knowledge is more than concerning, it will definitely kill people. Looks like the right is okay with that.

So much for progress under RFK- “America’s measles outbreak is alarming for several reasons. What began as a handful of cases in Texas in January has now surpassed 800 across several states, with many more cases probably going unreported. It is the worst outbreak in 30 years and has already killed three people. Other smaller outbreaks bring the total number of cases recorded in 2025 so far to over 1,000. But above all, public-health experts worry that the situation now is a sign of worse to come. Falling vaccination rates and cuts to public-health services could make such outbreaks more frequent and impossible to curb, eventually making measles endemic in the country again.”https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2025/05/14/how-much-worse-could-americas-measles-outbreak-get
