Summary
WASHINGTON, Sept 6 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump is standing by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the health secretary who is upending the U.S. healthcare system, despite congressional pressure, public health concerns and the political risks of changing vaccine policies nationwide.
Since becoming the top U.S. health official, Kennedy has slashed funding for vaccine research, limited access for COVID-19 shots and ousted the head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which makes U.S. vaccine recommendations.
The consequences of those changes for Americans and their wellness are vast, public health professionals warn. They also carry possible political peril: If an outbreak of an infectious disease occurs after vaccination rates go down, Trump could be blamed.
But the president so far has been steadfast in his support for Kennedy, according to sources familiar with their relationship, underscoring Trump's willingness to take a proverbial sledgehammer to the U.S. healthcare system, just as he has to academia, the law, the media and other institutions throughout U.S. society.
"He's a, a very good person ... and he means very well, and he's got some little different ideas," Trump told reporters on Thursday at the White House after lawmakers grilled Kennedy at a hearing earlier in the day. "If you look at what's going on in the world with health, and look at this country also with regard to health, I like the fact that he's different."
Trump and Kennedy speak regularly, though not as often as the president does with some other cabinet officials, a White House official...

Fake vaxes that didn’t work didn’t save any lives. In fact, people that took all those jabs get covid over and over.
The lies never end.
People want the clot shot, myocarditis, Bells Palsy, infertility, cancers, be my guest. They should be able to get them.
Nobody should ever be forced to take one of these jabs. If a drug Company won’t back up what the make with a promise they will accept liability, the jabs or fake vaxes should be marketed to no one.
I haven’t gotten a Covid vaccine in a couple of years, because I think that the danger of succeeding variants is lessened with each passing mutation and generation. However, I think that some fail to remember (or choose to ignore that fact) that the initial variant was quite serious and often deadly. I had a good friend, who had no co-morbidities, die of Covid.
You can choose whether you want the Covid vaccine now or not. I choose not to get it. However, my concern is that the anti-vaccine mania will cause less and less to be vaccinated against measles and other diseases. (And, yes, measles were indeed serious. The stories of measles parties or such probably involved the not very serious German measles.)
Many people are alive today because of vaccines. Yes, we can greatly reduce the number given to young children. Yes, we can further investigate the mRNA vaccines. But we need to be careful of how great a rollback of vaccines that we end up with. Before the advent of vaccines, approximately five percent of the Earth’s population died in 1918 because of the Spanish flu. Those who cause too great a rollback of vaccines will be responsible for lives lost.
Wash the baby, but don’t throw the baby out with the bath water.
Few people categorically oppose vaccines.
A few do, but they are a small minority.
Most people have reservations with certain vaccines where they question their effectiveness (flu vaccine), how they are developed (using fetal stem cells), combining vaccines, etc. They question certain vaccines or practices.
Regards Covid: What most oppose was that this became a coerced and not informed vaccine program.
The gold standard is “informed consent.”
Mandates and threatening people with their job, violating people’s privacy, covering up myocarditis, lying about how dangerous Covid is by inflating the mortality rate (((100 TIMES))) what it actually is (.2% vs. 20% claimed early on) that’s BS.
The MSM, failed.
The NIH, failed.
Elected officials sworn to uphold the US Constitution (including people’s rights), failed.
The FBI which is supposed to protect peoples “civil rights” as part of their mission, failed.
Instead of talking about those crazy “non-vaxers” to this day, those that were responsible for this mess need to take a good look in the mirror and ask if what they did was right.
Thank you Red6 for a comphrensive answer so I didn’t have to do it. +1
First, this is a Reuters article.
The Deep State Marxist Left has completely destroyed the regular American’s trust.
The current Covid va☠️☠️ine is not a vaccine.
I remember getting a sugar cube with the polio vaccine.
While today I have doctors I trust, I no longer trust any modern vaccine. To accommodate the Covid gene therapy shot, they changed the definition of a vaccine.
They tried to hide the so-called clinical trial results for 75 YEARS. When they truth was revealed, thousands of women had miscarriages. The long term myocarditis is frightening.
What about the data that showed Covid was nowhere near as dangerous as they claimed? Why isn’t that data mentioned, ever?
Big Pharma is afraid that if people dont get the vaccines, they wont get paid..its time to close big pharma down, these vaccines have caused enough harm to last centuries
The take away: mRNA jabs kill and disable.
