Donald Trump asked Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a proponent of a widely discredited theory that vaccines cause autism, to chair a new commission on vaccine safety and scientific integrity, according to Kennedy.

The stunning move would contradict established science, medicine and the government’s position on the issue. It comes after Trump — who has long been critical of vaccines — met at Trump Tower with Kennedy, who has spearheaded efforts to roll back child vaccination laws.

Trump transition officials did not respond to requests for comment on the commission.

Link to Trumps view on the link to autism???
Right out there.
Opinions on this are??

Right from the jackass's mouth, so to speak.

Trump is an antivax loon, among many other personal failings.

Trump's one of those stupid anti-vaxxers that thinks there's a link between vaccines and autism, a belief that has been debunked so many times now.

This is not going to help anything, other than fuel anti-vaxxer nonsense.

I never cared for the state forcing people to give their children shots.

The gvmt acknowledges vaccines cause serious injury, death and disability. Thus, the gvmt program that pays out millions.

No they do not (Only in very rare cases do they cause things like allergic reactions).

And there is defintley zero link between vaccines and autism (not that you said this, I'm just saying).

Im not aware of any state that forces that, they only make it a requirement for entrance into public schools.

Trump is an anti-science and technology president.

Anti vaxxers are not rational people when it comes to vaccines. It's been established that vaccines do not cause autism and anyone who says they do is just making themselves look like fools.
 
Re: Vaccine skeptic Robert Kennedy Jr. says Trump asked him to lead commission on ‘va

There is a percentage of the population that have negative reactions to vaccines and for the greater good, that is accepted by society and typically negative consequences to those who object.

Kennedy is an out of work rabble rouser looking for his next job. Put a critic on the team to evaluate and hopefully shut him up for good.

I don't agree with forcing it, either. However, to not vaccinate against certain diseases is just plain stupid, IMO.

In 99.95% of people vaccines do not cause any type of reaction. However there are people who cannot receive vaccines because some people may experience those things due to abnormal allergies or other reasons. But because of those people who cannot receive vaccines it is even more important that other people get vaccinated, to protect those people through herd immunity. No link to autism though.

I believe that if someone does not want to vaccinate they should lose access to all government services and welfare until they do.

I understand that appointment, and it would seem to be in keeping with DTs philosophy. The science will speak for itself.

The science has already spoken for itself. Over, and over, and over, and over again.

And I've never cared for kids catching diseases which were all but eradicated because their loony toon parents were morons.

This is entirely a waste of money. No amount of money will be able to prove that vaccines cause autism(because they don't) unless the results are messed with.

My thought, then, is that that will be borne out by a skeptic. A good thing.

The stupid begins..

Began today with some confirmations.

The science already does speak for itself. There is no credible evidence to support the claim that vaccines cause autism.

None. Zero. Nada.

Then what's the problem?
 
Re: Vaccine skeptic Robert Kennedy Jr. says Trump asked him to lead commission on ‘va

Sounds like #FAKENEWS spun by a self promoter, but I will listen to the evidence.

EDIT: I see that NYT's is running claiming that this is realty, but they dont indicate that they have anyone but this guy as a source.
