In a recent interview, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. presented a controversial approach to the measles outbreak in West Texas, suggesting that vaccination should remain a personal choice, despite the evidence supporting its effectiveness. He proposed that vaccine injuries were more prevalent than indicated by research and claimed that natural immunity from measles could prevent other serious diseases, a notion lacking scientific backing. He also endorsed alternative treatments over traditional medical practices, amidst the alarming backdrop of a severe outbreak primarily affecting a Mennonite community, leading to infections in nearly 200 people and at least one death.
Kennedy insisted that vaccination should be a personal choice, implying that concerns about vaccine-related injuries were more common but lacked solid research to back those claims.
He claimed that achieving natural immunity through measles infection provided additional protection against diseases like cancer and heart disease, a suggestion unsupported by empirical evidence.
