Washington Week with The Atlantic

Is RFK Jr.'s vaccine fight popular with Trump and his base?

Season 2025 Episode 36 | 16m 51s

Scientists have endorsed the efficacy of vaccines for quite literally hundreds of years. George Washington himself had his troops vaccinated for smallpox. But Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. spent a day debating vaccination with senators of both parties. The panel discusses how popular the agenda is with President Trump's supporters.

Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, Otsuka, Kaiser Permanente, the Yuen Foundation, and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
