RFK Jr., autism, vaccines. If they decide vaccines are unsafe, you won't be able to get it in the U.S. and maybe not elsewhere. Updates 1,2,3.
The CDC is doing a study now on whether vaccines cause autism, a question which science has settled year ago. A product which is determined to be unsafe, can't be manufactured much less given to you.

Something can’t be prescribed or sold if it is considered unsafe.
And you insurance certainly won’t pay for it. It likely can’t be legally manufactured either. (Not a lawyer.)
Newsweek, March 7, 2025, “Under RFK Jr.'s Leadership, CDC Launches Large Study on Vaccines and Autism.”
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is moving forward with a study examining potential connections between vaccines and autism, according to multiple reports.
Newsweek reached out to the CDC and the Department of Health and Human Services for comment on Friday.
Why It Matters
The announcement has raised questions, given the extensive scientific research that has consistently found no link between vaccines and autism. Yet, despite overwhelming evidence debunking the claim, skepticism persists, fueled in part by HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been a big proponent that vaccines cause autism. What do you want to bet that they will find that there is a link and vaccines will be declared unsafe for children.

Reuters, March 8, 2025, “Exclusive: US CDC plans study into vaccines and autism, sources say.”
March 7 - The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is planning a large study into potential connections between vaccines and autism, two sources familiar with the matter told Reuters, despite extensive scientific research that has disproven or failed to find evidence of such links.
A hugh waste of resources when there are real medical problems to be solved.

UPDATE1:
Good article from Nature magazine.
Nature, March 13, 2025, “Will RFK Jr’s vaccine agenda make America contagious again?”
Subtitle.
Fears are rising that infectious diseases such as measles could make a comeback now that the anti-vaccine advocate is in charge of the US public-health system.

Update 2:
Seems the measles outbreak has resulted in Trump pulling his CDC nominee, David Weldon, who is an anti-vaxxer. It seems no one wants to be associated with a pandemic, in particular one that has very visible unsightly rashes. I have questions as to whether Trump really has any strong vax views one way or another, but I do think Trump will drop anyone or any movement that is a liability to his popularity.
Science, March 13, 2025, “Vaccine skeptic out as CDC nominee.”
The Trump administration abruptly withdrew its candidate for director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention this morning, and a scheduled Senate committee nomination hearing was canceled less than 1 hour before it was scheduled to begin. David Weldon, an internal medicine physician and former Florida congressman who holds antivaccine views, had been nominated in November 2024 to lead the agency. Although the reasons for the withdrawal were not immediately made public, he reportedly faced skepticism from some Republican senators on a key committee considering his nomination, on whose support he was depending. The pullback also comes shortly after news reports that CDC is planning to study potential links between vaccines and autism—a long-debunked theory and one for which Weldon has also expressed support.
The nomination’s failure came amid a spreading measles outbreak in multiple U.S. states and public criticism of tepid support by Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for measles vaccination. Weldon has said he and Kennedy have a friendship stretching back many years. [Boldface added.]

UPDATE 3:
Serious development at NIH regarding mRNA vaccines.
ArsTechnica, March 17, 2025, “Report: mRNA vaccines are in RFK Jr’s crosshairs; funding in question.”
I am concerned and will be watching closely.
Federal support for mRNA vaccine research appears in jeopardy after KFF Health News reported Sunday that officials at the National Institutes of Health have directed scientists to remove all references to the lifesaving technology from their grant applications. All such research is now under direct scrutiny from health secretary and long-time anti-vaccine advocate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
A senior official at the NIH's National Cancer Institute confirmed to KFF that NIH acting Director Matthew Memoli "sent an email across the NIH instructing that any grants, contracts, or collaborations involving mRNA vaccines be reported up the chain to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s office and the White House."
This new policy has been confirmed by some researchers who got feedback that they needed to remove mention of mRNA vaccines from their grant applications.
I don’t know how you can get funding for mRNA vaccines without mentioning mRNA vaccines.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has a long history of quack beliefs.
He is a very strong believer that vaccines cause autism.
I reported on his beliefs here.
When they decide that vaccine causes autism, and they will, they will not permit vaccines.
The reasoning of anti-vaxxers, if you can all it reasoning, is basicaly rationalizing a conclusion they have already drawn.
It is similar to the reasoning processes of flat earthers, those who deny evolution, or believes in quack medical cures.
This article explains the flawed reasoning and also shows how once people think that vaccines cause autism, they start grasping for rationalizations.
https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC2908388/
This is one example of anti-vaxer reasoning.
ArsTechnica, Dec. 4, 2023, “Texas sues Pfizer with COVID anti-vax argument that is pure stupid.”
It really is pure stupid.
You can expect that before the end of 2025, vaccines might not be available for children and maybe adults also.
For some people you can take a vaccination vacation to Toronto, assuming it isn’t in the 51st state, but for most people with children that will be cost prohibitive. It will be cost prohibitive for most people without children.
Maybe some people can take boat trips out beyond a 20 mile limit. One of the issues with that, or going to some nations, their regulation of drugs and medicines could be laxer than the FDA was. You also would be concerned that you were actually getting the vaccine.
The availablity of vaccines could very well stop in 2025, at least for children, and the risk of getting disease will greatly increase.
I wrote this guide because I think vaccines might become unavailable.
I have been predicting shortages since April 2022. It is happening now.
When vaccine skeptics wise up, they will be rushing to get vaccinated.

Besides the fact thet mRNA is "NOT" a vaccine but an Experimental Genetic Therapy, I'd beware. If you can't eat Garlic, Thyme or White Pine Needle Tea you will evedently become a Genetically Modified Organism! Good liuck with that. They are calling it "SUDDEN DEATH"! The problem is thay most of those jabbed wont be around to have the debatew. GOD Bless you all !!!
Why would you want it if its unsafe????? Asking for am friend!!!
