Announcement of Vaccine Injury Clinic

Hi, I'm Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., your HHS secretary, and

today we're in Bethesda, Maryland, at NIH headquarters

to do a major announcement about people with vaccine

injuries.

Three, two, one. Cut.

Whoo.

Today is a historic day. We are opening a new vaccine injury

clinic dedicated to developing the science of

preventing vaccine injuries, making vaccines safer,

and most important of

all, listening to the voices of people who have

suffered vaccine injury

so that we can learn from them and learn from their experience to make

vaccines

safer.

He never gained any movement after that.

Vaccine injury is an invisible disease, and it is, it

is purposefully invisible. For many years,

moms and children with vaccine injuries, the parents of those children,

people who suffered injuries themselves, have been marginalized,

vilified, demonized, and gaslighted,

and they have not received the medical attention they need, and we have

not done the studies that need to be done to understand who's

vulnerable to those kind of injuries.

And at the CDC, we recognize that the best way to protect

Americans is to listen to them, and we're doing exactly that.

When they share their stories with the CDC, we listen, we

investigate, we believe them, and we go where the evidence

shows us. That is our commitment to the American

people.

Behind every report is a person, a parent, a

patient, a family looking for answers.

When we listened to the patients today, there was a recurring theme.

The doctors taking care of them both ignored their symptoms, but also

did not report what the families, especially the parents,

thought had happened to

their children. That cannot continue.

The Trump administration wants all the mothers, all the people

who believe that they've been injured by vaccines,

to understand that you're finally being listened to.

Let's make America healthy again.
