Pediatrician In Congress Tells RFK Jr.: I Will Blame You For All Vaccine-Preventable Deaths

Rep. Kim Schrier described babies who “turned blue” from whooping cough and ripped the HHS secretary for lying to parents about the safety of vaccines.

WASHINGTON – Rep. Kim Schrier (D-Wash.) on Tuesday tore into Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for his decades of lies about the safety and effectiveness of vaccines, saying she will blame him every time someone dies from a vaccine-preventable disease on his watch.

“You have lied to the American people,” Schrier, who is a pediatrician, charged as Kennedy sat silently before a House committee. “You have lied to parents about vaccines for 20 years.”

“And I also want to be clear that I will lay all responsibility for every death from a vaccine-preventable illness at your feet,” she said.

Here is a clip of their exchange.

Kennedy, who has a long history of peddling dangerous misinformation about vaccines, was testifying before the House panel about his agency’s budget request when Schrier began describing what happens when unvaccinated babies and children get sick with things like measles, bacterial meningitis or whooping cough.
