Kennedy reiterated he won’t take vaccines away from Americans despite his claims about vaccines being linked to autism and his involvement with the anti-vaccine group Children’s Health Defense.
“If vaccines are working for somebody, I’m not going to take them away,” Kennedy added. “People oughta have a choice and that choice oughta be informed by the best information.”
According to a survey by AP VoteCast of more than 120,000 voters, about 20% said they want less government involvement in childhood vaccinations. Of those voters, around 80% voted for Trump.
Kennedy also talked about his concerns over fluoride in the country’s water supply, going against several public health groups that say fluoride in water reduces tooth decay.
“I think the faster that it goes out the better,” Kennedy said. “I’m not going to compel anybody to take it out, but I’m going to advise water districts of their legal liability.”
