Summary

Dr. Peter Marks, the FDA’s top vaccine regulator, resigned after reportedly being forced out amid clashes with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

In his resignation letter, Marks wrote that Kennedy wanted “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”

He criticized Kennedy’s stance on vaccines, accusing him of undermining public confidence.

Marks, who led the FDA’s Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research since 2016, played a key role in authorizing Covid vaccines and spearheading Operation Warp Speed. Kennedy, an anti-vaccine activist, has questioned the safety of Covid and MMR vaccines despite scientific consensus.

    This is bad. This is really bad. We knew it was coming, but if the FDA is dismantled to syncopats, a lot of people will die.

    Corporations will cheap out on food safety, drug safey, medical device safety, health recommendations, vaccines, research, you name it.

    Preventable disease will spread. More people will die in hospitals on life saving equipment. Any exported medications (I don’t know if that’s a thing) will have to be blocked by the receiving countries.
