RFK Jr. reportedly ordered CDC to delete measles death records

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. allegedly directed the CDC to remove reported measles deaths from its official records, according to recent reports. The deletion order came after CDC staff had already formally accepted and logged the death reports. Despite the reported interference, the CDC is said to still be tracking the measles fatalities, albeit secretly. The incident raises serious concerns about political interference in public health data integrity. Kennedy, who leads the Department of Health and Human Services, has long been a controversial figure on vaccine-related issues.
