While this article may not be “hot off the press,” it does show exactly just how anti-vaccine RFK Jr. is. In Samoa, there had been an incident where two infants had died after nurses had wrongfully mixed the vaccine dosage with a muscle relaxant instead of water. It was not publicly known at that time that that is what happened, leading to anti-vax groups to pounce on the news as evidence of the horror of vaccines. This resulted in dismal vaccination rates, and those low vaccination rates allowed measles to spread rampant. The outbreak would eventually claim 83 lives.

At the height of the measles outbreak in Samoa, after dozens of children had already died from a vaccine preventable illness, RFK Jr visited Samoa and penned a letter to the prime minister to continue spewing his antivax garbage. There is blood on his hands.
