Federal funding for mRNA vaccine research in jeopardy under RFK Jr.
Briefly

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., notable for his anti-vaccine activism, has taken a prominent position against mRNA vaccines since his appointment as a health official in the U.S. Researchers believe that his influence along with the Trump administration has negatively impacted vaccine research funding, particularly from the NIH. Kennedy's baseless claims about severe vaccine harms have gained traction among some factions, leading to the cancellation of significant research grants and raising concerns about vaccine misinformation impacting public health.
Kennedy's war on vaccines has started, and there will not be any research funded by NIH on mRNA vaccines; MAGA people are convinced that these vaccines have killed and maimed tens of thousands of people.
Kennedy has positioned himself as a leading anti-vaccine advocate, spreading misinformation and facing bans from major social media platforms for his false claims.
