CDC’s Autism Website ‘Update’ Came Directly From Kennedy, He Says
HuffPost
Ex-CDC vaccines chief Dr. Demetre Daskalakis called the update a “national embarrassment.”
A tweak to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website suggesting there’s a link between vaccines and autism came directly from Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., he says.
Kennedy told The New York Times he personally ordered the language change. There’s no evidence to support the claim.
Kennedy tried to thread the needle in his interview with the Times, emphasizing that he’s not saying vaccines cause autism, rather that he doesn’t believe the claim that they don’t.
“The whole thing about ‘vaccines have been tested and there’s been this determination made,’ is just a lie,” he said, repeating a long-debunked theory.
