Donald Trump has said Robert F Kennedy Jr, his nominee for health secretary, may investigate a supposed link between vaccines and autism – despite a consensus among the medical establishment debunking any such connection.
In a wide-ranging interview with NBC, the US president-elect claimed an investigation was justified by the increasing prevalence of autism diagnoses among American children over the past 25 years.
“When you look at what’s going on with disease and sickness in our country, something’s wrong,” Trump said after the interviewer, Kristen Welker, asked him if he wanted to see some vaccines eliminated – a position for which Kennedy has argued.
“If you take a look at autism, go back 25 years, autism was almost nonexistent. It was, you know, one out of 100,000 and now it’s close to one out of 100.”
The results of their research are going to show that there is no connection, and they’re going to say “ah, I guess we were wrong”. Right? RIGHT?!
“They tainted our research! The deep state is well entrenched! “
The results of their research will definitely show there IS a connection. Keep in mind, their camp includes such doctors as the one who believes women’s reproductive health issues are caused by having sex with demons in your sleep.
They’ll absolutely find researchers who will give them whatever ‘data’ and ‘findings’ they want.
