Aseem Malholtra, an adviser to US health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr, said: "One of Britain's most eminent oncologists Professor Angus Dalgleish said to me to share with you today that he thinks it's highly likely that the Covid vaccines have been a significant factor in the cancers in the royal family." Wes Streeting, the health secretary, said that it was "shockingly irresponsible" of Reform to allow Dr Malholtra at the conference.

Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. remained combative during an extraordinary Senate Finance Committee hearing on September 4 as Democrats grilled him about creating "chaos" at the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden, the committee's ranking Democrat, said Kennedy fired career scientists at the CDC and replaced them with "cranks" and "conspiracy theorists" who promote mistrust in basic public health principles.

Stratus doesn't necessarily cause more severe illness than the variants we've seen before, and the symptoms are broadly similar-cough, fever, fatigue, and so on. There are some reports of "razor-blade throat," although that kind of extreme sore throat was seen with prior variants as well. But, by their nature, variants that arise are more transmissible; they've outcompeted other variants. From that perspective, they should be on our radar.

Several panelists ganged up on Jennings for focusing on the inclusive language used by one of the resignees, vaccine chief Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, instead of the misinformation and disinformation from RFK Jr. A frustrated Cupp presented Jennings with settled science on vaccines, as Jennings interrupted to say You seem to be very angry with me. I fundamentally agree with you.

A letter signed by hundreds of current and former HHS employees, addressed to Kennedy and members of Congress, says Kennedy is "complicit in dismantling America's public health infrastructure and endangering the nation's health" by questioning the integrity of the CDC's workforce, making false claims that COVID vaccines are not safe or effective, changing vaccine policy based on ideology rather than science, and contributing to "harassment and violence experienced by the CDC staff."

"As part of the initiative, hundreds of local pediatricians have been trained to screen and refer children for assessment as early as possible, which could result in higher identification of ASD, especially at early ages."

The CDC data indicates that autism diagnoses among 4-year-olds are at 1 in 34, highlighting a significant prevalence, particularly among boys and minority groups.
