The Guardian view on RFK Jr’s vaccine cuts: an assault on science from a politician unfit for his office | Editorial

The article criticizes the decision by the US health and human services secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to remove mRNA research funding. It argues that this move is ill-informed and dangerous, as it undermines the scientific process of exploration, testing, and progress. The article emphasizes that science is not black and white, but a constant process of investigation and discovery. It notes that during his Senate confirmation hearings, Kennedy had promised to "empower the scientists at HHS to do their job and make sure that we have good science that is evidence based." However, the decision to cut mRNA research funding is seen as a betrayal of this promise and an assault on science by a politician who is unfit for his office.
