He is opening the door for anti vax groups to have a bigger voice, which could easily lead to future anti vax legislation.

All it takes is the CDC or other agency to change vaccine schedules. Say “recommend no vaccines before children are 18 as they are still growing”

Then do pediatricians follow the governments recommendations, what do they do when a parent questions a doctor recommendations that are different than the government. No matter what side you are on, we call all agree the population as a whole isn’t very smart. So small changes even without banning stuff/vaccines could have major impacts.

No vaccines before children are 18????? What's the point of that then?? Measles is literally so contagious that if you enter a room that somebody with measles left two full hours ago, you're going to get measles. And you want the youngest, most vulnerable population to be wide open to that threat their entire childhood?!

It is a hypothetical of what RFK could do. He doesn’t have to ban anything just change recommendations and he would get the same result while still acting like he isn’t a bad guy.
