  • Donald Trump defended his nomination of vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy for health secretary as the US president elect offered up debunked data linking vaccines and autism in his first post-election news conference on Monday.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump defending Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s controversial stance on vaccines. Trump, who is running for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination, praised Kennedy, a Democratic presidential candidate, for his views on vaccines, despite Kennedy's claims that vaccines are linked to autism and other health issues, which are not supported by scientific evidence. Trump's comments were made during an interview with Fox News, where he suggested that Kennedy has "good things" to say about vaccines, aligning with his own past skepticism towards vaccine mandates. This endorsement comes at a time when Kennedy's statements have drawn criticism from health experts and members of his own party, highlighting a divide within political and public health discussions. Trump's support for Kennedy on this issue might be an attempt to appeal to voters who are skeptical of mainstream medical advice, reflecting a broader trend of vaccine hesitancy within certain political circles.
