ASHINGTON—President-elect Donald Trump’s nomination of environmental lawyer and vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy Jr.as health and human services secretary continued to reverberate through the pharmaceutical industry Friday.

Shares in vaccine maker Moderna fell 2.0% in premarket trading Friday, while Pfizer was down 0.5%. In Thursday trading, shares in the companies dropped 5.6% and 2.6%, respectively. In Europe, shares in Danish Mpox vaccine maker Bavarian Nordic fell more than 15% Friday, while pharma heavyweights AstraZeneca, GSK and Sanofi dropped 2.5% or more.

Kennedy has promised sweeping changes to food-and-drug regulation and government-funded scientific research, in recent days saying the Food and Drug Administration’s nutrition department needed to be eliminated and warning the agency’s employees to “pack your bags.”

I'd have preferred Ben Carson, MD to RFKJR, JD and I'm a JD, not an MD.

It is long past time that Big Pharma was made to answer several questions:

How much do they spend annually on lobbying in Washington DC?
How much money did they AND have they made from COVID vaccines?
How much did US taxpayers pay to develop the COVID vaccine?
What are the plans for Big Pharma to reimburse US taxpayers this amount?
How effective are the COVID vaccines/boosters?
WHO has made money from COVID INSIDE Big Pharma and OUTSIDE Big Pharma?
Did Robert Fauci benefit personally from the development and sale of COVID vaccines?

Just a start. Feel free to add. Can we get the list to RFK Jr?

If the Fake Vaccine was and is so wonderful and is the next best thing health wise for The World Population as they have hyped up to be for the last 4 years or so, why would they be worried about anything??? They have the “Science” I thought....

You need someone with sharp elbows to take out the trash.

RFK Jr. has been fighting Big Pharma for decades.

He knows where all the bodies are buried.

“ I’d have preferred Ben Carson, MD to RFKJR, JD and I’m a JD, not an MD.”

Carson can be a “Czar.”

Sometimes it takes a JD to set a MD straight.
