RFK Jr, US Senators Spar Over Covid Vaccines In Hearing; Trump Reacts | Firstpost America | N18G

Robert F Kennedy Jr has defended his leadership of US health agencies in a fiery hearing, as lawmakers grilled him over his vaccine policies and other sweeping changes. During three hours of testimony, Democrats accused the US health secretary of lying and restricting Americans' access to vaccines. Several Republican senators also raised concerns. The hearing comes a week after Kennedy fired the leader of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in a clash over his vaccine policies. Since taking the helm at the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in February, some of Kennedy's decisions have alarmed health experts. Lawmakers repeatedly questioned Kennedy over his stance on the Covid-19 vaccine, including Senator Mark Warner, a Virginia Democrat, who asked the health leader how many lives the immunisations had saved during the pandemic. Kennedy said he did not know because of "data chaos" under the Biden administration. Watch this video to know more.
