Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told senators he would apologize if data shows vaccines don’t cause autism, but he cited a poorly conducted study to counter the dozens that show they do not.

The man who hopes to be President Trump's Health secretary says he needs to see data showing vaccines are safe, but dismissed evidence shown by a Republican senator.

Kennedy Jr. is revising his ethics agreement to divest his interest in litigation against an HPV vaccine maker and directing the stake to his adult son, The New York Times reported Friday, citing a written response to questions from senators who are weighing his confirmation as Health and Human Services secretary.

NH Sen. Maggie Hassan challenged RFK Jr. on vaccines in an emotional speech where she brought up her son’s struggle with cerebral palsy.

In his second day of confirmation hearings, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, refused to say that vaccines do not cause autism -- despite a large body of evidence showing there is no link.

The data is there,” GOP Sen. Bill Cassidy bluntly told the nominee for secretary of health and human services.

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders questioned Health Secretary nominee RFK Jr. on vaccine stance, calling responses "troubling" and "problematic."

Kennedy refused to flatly reject a long-discredited theory that vaccines cause autism, despite years of studies and research that have found they do not.
