Robert F. Kennedy Jr. used his speech at a global vaccine summit organized by Gavi to criticize the organization's approach to vaccination, alleging it collaborated with social media to censor dissenting opinions. His address pointedly questioned the safety of COVID-19 vaccines recommended for pregnant women and cited a discredited study about a tetanus vaccine in developing countries. His comments also reflect the broader implications of U.S. funding and foreign policy, tying them to the anti-vaccine agenda that gained momentum during the Trump administration.
In its zeal to promote universal vaccination, Gavi has neglected the key issue of vaccine safety, particularly concerning COVID-19 shots recommended for pregnant women.
The U.S.'s rejection of global vaccine campaigns stems from the Trump administration's opposition not only to foreign aid, but to vaccination itself.
