RFK Jr.'s Lawyer and Top Ally Asked FDA to Revoke Approval of Polio Vaccine
Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s personal attorney previously lobbied the Food and Drug Administration to revoke its approval of the polio vaccine, highlighting an influential Kennedy ally who, sources tell ABC News, has been helping interview candidates for top health jobs in the incoming Trump administration.
The matter could be something RFK Jr. gets questioned about when he goes to Capitol Hill next week to meet with senators considering whether to confirm him as health and human services secretary..
"Petitioner requests that the FDA withdraw or suspend the approval for [the polio vaccine] for infants, toddlers, and children until a properly controlled and properly powered double-blind trial of sufficient duration is conducted to assess the safety of this product," Siri wrote.
