Even with that, the nominated head of Health and Human Services wants to do away with the polio vaccine.

Oh yeah we're so fucked. As well as believing that vaccines cause autism, RFK believes that HIV doesn't lead to AIDS. He literally believes that "something about the gay lifestyle" causes it.

RFK Jr tried this before in 2022. He's been trying to get the FDA to revoke approval for the vaccine, probably to snowball it into "we need to revoke all vaccine approvals".
