Wall Street Journal: RFK Jr. makes his first move against vaccines

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Is pursuing an anti-vaccine agenda as Health and Human Services Secretary, preparing to dismiss members of the CDC’s Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices to influence vaccine recommendations and liabilities.
If the CDC committee withdraws a vaccine recommendation, it could lead to its removal from the vaccine compensation program and expose manufacturers to lawsuits.
Kennedy's financial ties to trial lawyers are notable, especially since he has a 10% financial interest in litigation against Merck concerning its HPV vaccine, which has sparked an ongoing trial over alleged side effects.
With Kennedy's confirmation, trial lawyers and plaintiffs of Gardasil lawsuits may gain significant support in their legal battles, as noted by Lanier.
