Summary
In May 2021, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Meryl Nass, on behalf of Children’s Health Defense, petitioned the FDA to revoke Emergency Use Authorizations for COVID-19 vaccines, citing safety concerns.
The FDA rejected the petition, finding no evidence the vaccines’ benefits were outweighed by risks.
Kennedy, nominated for health secretary, is expected to face scrutiny over his history of vaccine skepticism, including his false claim that COVID-19 vaccines are the “deadliest ever.”
