Pocan asked Kennedy, “If you had a child today, would you vaccinate that child for measles?”

“Probably for measles,” Kennedy said, before backpedaling. “What I would say is my opinions about vaccines are irrelevant.”

“I don’t want to seem like I am being evasive but I don’t think people should be taking medical advice from me,”

        Lol absolutely not. I’m saying that RFK Jr. is directly effecting pharma’s pockets.

        Me personally, give me every vaccine.

          To be fair, anti-vaxxer rhetoric is extremely hostile toward companies like Pfizer. Not for any logical or dialectical reasons, but because of conspiratorial notions that pharmaceutical companies use vaccines to “control” people. This “control” can run the gamut from relatively innocuous assertions like “Pfizer uses vaccines to suppress adoption of alternative medicine,” to blatantly racist/bigoted conspiracies like “[Im not gonna write a heinous example conspiracy here.]”
