BREAKING: Trump Admin could Remove COVID Vaccines from US Market ‘within Months’
President Donald Trump and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are allegedly planning to ban the COVID vaccine “within months,” according to an associate of Kennedy’s, Newsweek has reported.
In a recent statement that has stirred controversy, an associate of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a prominent figure known for his skepticism toward vaccines, claimed that the COVID-19 vaccine could be phased out “within months.” The assertion, which has gained traction among certain groups, was swiftly refuted by the White House, highlighting ongoing tensions between public health policy and vaccine skepticism.
The Claim
The potential phasing out of the COVID-19 vaccine is coming in the next few months, Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist, vaccine skeptic and Kennedy associate, told the Daily Beast, adding that Kennedy’s stance is shared by “influential” members of Trump’s family.
Malhotra, a leading adviser to the lobby group MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) Action, said that many of those closest to Kennedy have told him they “cannot understand” why the vaccine continues to be prescribed. The decision to remove the vaccine from the market “within months” is expected, despite the likelihood of causing “fear of chaos” and major legal ramifications, he added.
“It could [happen] in a number of stages, including learning more about the data,” Malhotra, who is not part of the Trump administration or HHS in any official capacity, said. “But given the increased talk of vaccine injuries in the past few weeks among the administration, it could also come with one clean decision.”
White House Response
The White House denied Malhotra’s claims in a statement to Newsweek.
