Republican senators are meeting with Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump’s pick for Health and Human Services Secretary, for his confirmation. Despite concerns about his views on vaccines, no senator has outright opposed his nomination. Kennedy has falsely claimed polio vaccines were more harmful than the virus and one of his associates sought to remove a polio vaccine from the market. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell has warned against undermining polio vaccinations. This controversy surrounding Kennedy’s views on vaccines may impact his confirmation process.
