The U.S. is currently grappling with over 700 measles cases and three reported deaths due to ongoing outbreaks across six states. This alarming rise follows a long period where measles outbreaks were rare, thanks to the effectiveness of vaccination. With scrutiny directed at the federal response, largely due to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.'s history of spreading vaccine misinformation, former top vaccine regulator Dr. Peter Marks expresses concern that the current administration is failing to adequately address vaccination efforts amid this crisis.
For decades it has made measles outbreaks in the U.S. relatively rare, and measles deaths rarer still.
Kennedy publicly promised he would support vaccines. Dr. Peter Marks says his department isn't doing enough.
