Robert F. Kennedy Jr. canceled hundreds of millions in mRNA vaccine research funding, prompting bipartisan criticism. Senators, including Democrat Maria Cantwell, questioned his actions and called him a "charlatan." Cantwell said the canceled research was needed for future pandemic preparedness. Kennedy responded that she was wrong on the facts and offered to discuss details. Republicans also criticized the defunding. Kennedy fired the entire CDC vaccine advisory panel earlier this year. The newly appointed panel revealed plans to study safety of some childhood vaccines, raising concerns among health professionals. Kennedy defended CDC changes as necessary adjustments to restore the agency as the world's gold standard public health agency. Cantwell accused Kennedy of not following the science and undermining the U.S. health care delivery system.
