“Skirting a question on an issue that has gained him support and stoked opponents, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Wisconsin Democrat Rep. Mark Pocan during a hearing before a House committee he thinks Americans should not be taking medical advice from him. The issue? Vaccines. 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,’ he added, reiterating his stance when pressed further by Pocan.” (05/14/25)
