"Bennett confronted Kennedy about his intentions to change recommendations for children's vaccinations for Covid, hepatitis B, measles, mumps, rubella, and RSV. These are common back-to-school vaccinations for children all over the industrialized world. If you change that, you owe parents in Colorado and across the country the benefit of some transparency, Bennett said. I think if your panel recommends changing the vaccine schedule for children, do you anticipate that fewer children will receive these common vaccine vaccinations? Yes or no?"
"BENNETT: Should parents and schools of Colorado be prepared for more measles outbreaks as a result of that? Mr. Secretary? KENNEDY: Senator BENNETT: How about more mumps outbreaks? KENNEDY: I don't anticipate a change in the MMR vaccine. You know, ASIP [American Society of Investigative Pathology] is an independent panel, so BENNETT: It's a panel you just put those folks on. Far from what you said there are people with ideas that are completely outside the mainstream."
Sen. Michael Bennett challenged HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during a Senate Finance Committee hearing about possible changes to children's vaccination recommendations for Covid, hepatitis B, measles, mumps, rubella, and RSV. Bennett warned that altering the schedule could lead to fewer children receiving common vaccines and potential outbreaks. Bennett demanded transparency, asking for the evidence and records the panel will rely on six weeks in advance for public comment. Kennedy said the evidence is transparent and called the advisory panel independent, while Bennett countered that some panel members hold views outside the mainstream.
