Sen. Lisa Blunt Rochester: "The U.S. first became measles free over 25 years ago. We have maintained that status in every year since until you became secretary. Does the president know there is a historic measles surge occurring nationwide?"
RFK: "I'm sure he does."
Bill Cassidy just dropped some science on RFK Jr. to disprove RFK Jr.’s claim during this hearing that vaccines had nothing to do with reduced mortality from infectious disease.
Bill Cassidy is of course the primary reason that the HHS Secretary must be corrected every other sentence.
RFK Jr. just lied again, saying:
“The flu shot is an intervention that is often ineffective. It has a 20% efficacy rate. There are studies that show that getting a flu shot actually increases the chance of a non-flu infection”.
This man is a menace.
It’s interesting that RFK Jr. is so busy denying that he is to blame for vaccination rates plummeting.
Given his anti-vaccine rhetoric over the past two decades, it seems he should be quite proud of his accomplishments.

Senator Hassan correctly says that this shows how out of touch he and the rest of the administration are.
Senator Hassan points out to RFK Jr. that while it’s nice that he promotes healthy foods, higher grocery prices make it extremely difficult.
RFK Jr: “Beef prices have dropped 1%”.

RFK Jr. just claimed that he has nothing to do with unvaccinated kids getting measles because “most of them are over 5 years old” and he wasn’t in office.

Seems reasonable.
