Donald Trump recently hinted that childhood vaccines could be banned if he wins the presidential election. He suggested that Robert F Kennedy Jr, an anti-vaccine advocate, would play a significant role in his administration. Kennedy has claimed that vaccines cause autism, but scientists have disputed this. Trump told NBC that he would discuss vaccination policies with Kennedy, leaving open the possibility of a ban.Kennedy has also proposed banning fluoride in water, which public health experts support for dental health. Trump seemed receptive to this idea, saying it "sounds OK" to him. Kennedy has claimed that Trump promised him control over several public health agencies. Trump has not specified Kennedy's role but has mentioned he could "go wild on food and medicines. " Howard Lutnick, Trump's campaign co-chair, suggested giving Kennedy access to federal data on vaccine safety. He seemed eager to see Kennedy's findings, saying, "Let's see what he comes up with. I think it's pretty fun. "
