The Trump administration announced that the FDA has launched a broad investigation into possible deaths related to Covid vaccines, both in children and adults. This investigation comes amid growing criticism of the politicization of health agencies, particularly from Robert Kennedy Jr. The spokesperson for the Department of Health, Andrew Nixon, confirmed that the FDA is analyzing data related to potential vaccine-associated deaths, but did not provide details about the conclusions or methods used.
Although the efficacy and safety of vaccines have been supported by studies, an internal FDA document has sparked controversy, suggesting a link between vaccines and infant deaths, without clear evidence. Ten former FDA officials have expressed concerns regarding this reexamination, highlighting the lack of transparency in the evaluation process. Robert Kennedy Jr., known for spreading false information, has been criticized for his controversial claims about vaccines and their effects.
