James Carville, a seasoned Democratic strategist, voiced strong disapproval of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s approach to vaccine policy. He expressed concern that the Health and Human Services Secretary's actions could lead to serious consequences for the country, including potential loss of life.
Appearing on The Will Cain Show on Fox News, Carville issued a stark warning, predicting that Kennedy's vaccine policies could result in more deaths than any previous Cabinet secretary. He emphasized the significance of vaccines as a major public health achievement, criticizing Kennedy for allegedly promoting distrust in their effectiveness.
Carville highlighted Kennedy's consistent skepticism towards vaccines, contrasting it with the widespread consensus among public health experts who view vaccines as a groundbreaking innovation. He reiterated his concern that Kennedy's actions would have fatal consequences.
The criticism stems from Kennedy's decision to replace the entire vaccine advisory panel of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. He cited "historical corruption" as the reason for the change. The original panel was replaced with a new group, which Kennedy described as committed to evidence-based medicine and common sense.
Experts have expressed concern over the new panel's composition, noting that some members have previously voiced skepticism about vaccines. The former panel members have stated that their removal indicated that scientific expertise was no longer valued and that this decision would erode public trust in the vaccination process. The new panel is scheduled to convene to review safety and efficacy data for the current immunization schedule.

Focus on "evidence-based medicine" is a sign of a positive change.
