世界衛生組織（WHO）週五表示，疫苗對全球健康「絕對至關重要」，並補充道，如今許多活着的人如果沒有疫苗，可能在童年時期就無法存活下來。這是在特朗普宣佈將羅伯特·F·肯尼迪·小開請爲衛生部長之後。

Why It Matters: The appointment of Kennedy, a prominent critic of vaccines, as Health Secretary could signal a shift in national health policies. Trump's choice has elicited mixed reactions, particularly among public health experts. Kennedy's stance on vaccines may influence future health regulations and policies.
爲什麼重要：任命肯尼迪，一位疫苗的知名批評者，爲衛生部長，可能標誌着國家衛生政策的轉變。特朗普的選擇引起了不同的反應，特別是在公共衛生專家中。肯尼迪對疫苗的立場可能影響未來的衛生法規和政策。
Kennedy's views on vaccines and health agencies diverge sharply from mainstream medical consensus. He has consistently propagated debunked claims, including the false assertion that vaccines cause autism—a theory discredited by extensive scientific research. His nomination for HHS secretary comes amid declining vaccination rates, which have contributed to public health challenges such as 13 measles outbreaks reported in the U.S. this year.
肯尼迪對疫苗和衛生機構的觀點與主流醫學共識存在明顯分歧。他一直在傳播被證實爲錯誤的說法，包括虛假斷言疫苗會導致自閉症——這一理論已被廣泛的科學研究證僞。他被提名擔任衛生與公共服務部部長，此時疫苗接種率下降，導致公共衛生挑戰加劇，比如今年美國出現了13起麻疹爆發。
