由美联社和《卫报》共同获取的最新文件显示,美国卫生部长小罗伯特·肯尼迪此前关于其2019年萨摩亚之行的公开表态与实际记录存在矛盾12。在参议院确认听证会上,肯尼迪曾反复作证,坚称其2019年的萨摩亚访问“与疫苗无关”12。
新披露的信件显示,在2019年出访前,肯尼迪曾致信萨摩亚总理12。在两名儿童死亡事件发生后,他在信中明确提议对该国的麻疹、腮腺炎和风疹疫苗进行研究12。此外,在这封信件中,肯尼迪共计八次使用了“疫苗”或“接种”一词2。这些书面证据直接反驳了他此前在听证会上的说法12。
Newly obtained documents contradict Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s testimony during his Senate confirmation hearings regarding the purpose of his 2019 trip to Samoa 12. During two congressional confirmation hearings last year, Kennedy told lawmakers that the visit had "nothing to do with vaccines" 2. However, letters obtained by the Associated Press and The Guardian refute these claims 12.
The documents reveal that prior to his 2019 visit, Kennedy wrote to the Samoan prime minister to propose a study of the country's measles, mumps, and rubella vaccines following the deaths of two children 1. In this correspondence, he explicitly stated his intention to study the vaccine in the Pacific island nation and used the words "vaccine" or "vaccination" eight times 2. These revelations stand in direct contrast to his repeated assertions made during his confirmation as Health Secretary that the trip was unrelated to vaccines 1.
