CDC in turmoil after agency backpedals on debunking vaccines-autism link
Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-Louisiana), who voted to confirm Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. after he pledged not to remove language stating vaccines do not cause autism from the CDC website, condemned the change.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has revised its website to falsely claim a link between vaccines and autism, contradicting decades of scientific evidence, leading to widespread condemnation from medical professionals and autism advocates. The changes, which echo the rhetoric of Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., were made without consulting career scientists and have sparked concerns about the agency's credibility and the politicization of science.
