NIH Director Refutes RFK Jr.'s Autism-Vaccine Claims at Senate Hearing
TL;DR Summary
At a Senate hearing, NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya testified that vaccines do not cause autism, saying he has not seen any study proving a single vaccine triggers autism — a stance that contrasts with HHS Secretary RFK Jr.'s anti-vax positions and his overhaul of autism-research panels. Bhattacharya also emphasized that vaccines remain the best tool to address measles outbreaks.
