If you were a Danish researcher wanting to do a trial to withhold a life saving vaccine in 1/2 of newborn babies in a low-income country & ethicists worldwide condemn your plan, why on earth would you take RFK Jr’s $$$ & just push on?
Hi @gavinyamey.bsky.social please share my @rollingstone.com story w/ your followers, which broke the latest news on the Hep B trial: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
BREAKING NEWS: RFK Jr. to give 1.6M in CDC funds to allow his Danish friends to harm African babies in unethical trial.
We will be launching ways to fight back in just a couple hours.
GET IN, DORKS. We have an unethical study to stop!
It’s simply unimaginable that CDC Director Dr. Erica Schwartz has just bowed to RFK Jr. and approved funding for an utterly unethical clinical trial that will withhold the birth dose of HepB vaccine in Guinea Bissau. It is to be conducted by researchers accused of academic misconduct.
Important reporting from @katherineeban.bsky.social in @rollingstone.com on Aaron Siri’s efforts to undermine childhood vaccination & his extraordinary influence inside HHS.

CDC has had to close down country offices overseas due to lack of funding... but the political leaders were able to use funds from global health security for this inappropriate and unethical study instead. Very clear what their priorities are
Two months after Erica Schwartz was confirmed as CDC head, "her office has moved to allocate new funds for a controversial clinical trial of the hepatitis B vaccine in Guinea-Bissau, which was previously suspended."
"The new funding is being pulled from...

CDC has set aside new $1.6M for controversial hepatitis B vax clinical trial in Guinea-Bissau, halted earlier amid uproar over medical ethics. CDC director's office resurrected it, taking $$ from global health security funds: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

I stayed for most of the next 2 days to report. My cough lingered for weeks. We now know EPA and city officials lied about air quality. But why? "Though digging on `the pile' is long over," I write, "the work of excavating the truth continues." /2
