Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s newly appointed CDC vaccine panel is questioning the safety and necessity of the hepatitis B vaccine for newborns, despite overwhelming scientific evidence supporting its safety and effectiveness in virtually eliminating the virus in children. Kennedy's claims of a hidden CDC study linking the vaccine to autism are unsubstantiated. Experts emphasize the vaccine's crucial role in preventing liver disease and highlight the significant decrease in hepatitis B cases since its widespread adoption. The panel's actions raise concerns about undermining public trust in established vaccination practices.
