RFK is a conspiratorial lunatic without government experience who is currently doing possibly irreparable damage to HHS by cutting all sorts of fundamental medical research.

It’s not bad per se, but it’s useless in the context of the current emergency.
So, it’s bad(ish) because it takes the attention for more important stuff. Governments need to do public communication in a clear manner, no need to waste attention on IFs. Treatment options are the jobs of doctors.
Sad
It’s amazing they have a health secretary who is not a MD, has no studies or experience in public health policies, absolutely nothing to recommend him for the job.
And…and!
Kennedy is the founder and former chairman of Children’s Health Defense, an anti-vaccine advocacy group and proponent of COVID-19 vaccine misinformation.
I mean if you invited someone literally from the streets, the odds to have a better fit would have been considerably higher!

Donnie wanted to take a competitor out of the game and get his endorsement and then his voters, he had no interest in his suitability for the job.
If RFKjr causes too many problems the he will be fired and replaced with another idiot.

RFKjr on Fox News spreading misinformation about COVID vaccines
: “So why are we giving this to tens of millions of kids when the vaccine itself does have profound risk?”
As of May 1, 2025, a total of 935 confirmed* measles cases were reported by 30 jurisdictions
96% of the cases unvaccinated
Numbers rising but slowly
Vaccines are much safer and much cheaper than not being vaccinated and ending up in hospital and at risk of contaminating others: especially children and older people with weak immune system.

FDA has also expands COVID 19 vaccine WARNING for young males ages 16 to 24 for both Pfizer & Moderna vaccines.

The Trump appointed anti-vaxxers making progress
Well Switzerland or the EU could easily pay to take over the project if they thought it had any merit.
From the link the US had already handed all the money to Moderna, I suppose RFKjr is hoping to get some back.

I am sure it will run over multi fold, no reason why CH or the EU don’t take the project forward, if they don’t it would validate the reason for dropping the project.
