RFK Jr: “Saying I'm anti-vaccine is like saying I'm anti-medicine”

RFK Jr: “Saying I'm anti-vaccine is like saying I'm anti-medicine.”

“I understand some medicines harm people. Some of them have risks. Some of them have benefits that outweigh those risks for certain populations, and the same is true with vaccines.”

“We don't understand the risk profile because vaccines are the only medical intervention, medical device, or pharmaceutical drug that are exempt from pre-licensing safety studies.”

“There are two hepatitis vaccines, and one of them had a safety study that lasted for four days.”

“It was on 143 kids, a product that's going to be given to 76 million kids.”

“The risk profile prior to the introduction of the vaccine for a baby dying from hepatitis B was one in seven million.”

“That means you need to give seven million hepatitis B vaccines to prevent one death.”
