Measles outbreak in the US, Kennedy Jr. changes stance on vaccines: They
Robert Kennedy Jr.

Recent outbreaks of measles cases in the US have led US Health Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. to change his stance on vaccines.

Known for his skepticism towards vaccines, Kennedy has expressed his concern about the cases that have spread in the southwestern United States.

"Vaccines not only protect children from measles, but they also contribute to the immunity of everyone, protecting those who cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons," Kennedy said in an opinion piece given to Fox News when asked about this issue.

Despite his concern, the US Secretary of Health denied that we are dealing with a measles epidemic in the US and clarified that these outbreaks of the disease "are not unusual."

Robert Kennedy Jr. said that health workers are responsible for " ensuring that accurate information is disseminated about the safety and effectiveness of vaccines and providing access to vaccines for all who want them."

By the end of February, more than 160 cases of measles had been recorded in the US, most of them in east Texas.

Although measles was eliminated in the US in 2000 thanks to vaccination, there has been an increase in cases of this highly contagious disease in recent years due to decreased vaccination rates following the Covid-19 pandemic, largely due to misinformation about vaccines.

In late February, an unvaccinated child in Texas died of measles, the first recorded death in the United States in a decade.
