Robert F. Kennedy Jr. launches HHS initiative to study vaccine injuries
U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced a department-wide effort to study and document health problems reported after vaccination, including a new research clinic at the National Institutes of Health, an overhauled reporting system, and financial reimbursements for doctors who file vaccine injury reports. The initiative represents a major policy shift led by Kennedy, who founded an anti-vaccine group before taking office.
