FRANCE 24's Sharon Gaffney speaks with Lawrence Gostin, Director of the WHO Collaborating Centre on National and Global Health Law, about CDC Director Susan Monarez's firing by Donald Trump. He says that the latest development is 'a very dangerous moment for the United States' and part of a 'systematic assault on science, public health and vaccinations'.

My friend @elizabethjacobs.bsky.social was about to adopt her first child when she came across a website with scary statements about #vaccines. She was frightened, but she's also an epidemiologist, so she knew what to do.

"After decades of painstaking work, much of it funded by the United States government, scientists figured out how to make cells produce any protein on cue—meaning #vaccines can be developed and rolled out in weeks instead of years. So while I am not surprised that America’s brain-wormed, raw-milk-chugging HHS secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is defunding #mRNA vaccine development, I am extremely disgusted. A near-magical vaccine technology is being thrown out..."

For years, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has pushed discredited theories linking vaccines to autism.

Now, scientists studying the condition fear he has preconceived notions that will harm the field and taint new funding for research.
