Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, expressed his support for the polio vaccine during his visit to Capitol Hill to meet with senators on Monday. Kennedy stated, 'I’m all for the polio vaccine,' when asked by reporters.
While affirming his stance on the polio vaccine, Kennedy refrained from addressing other inquiries regarding school vaccine mandates, his previous unsubstantiated claims linking vaccines to autism, and his opinions on abortion.
