Yes.

Americans deserve what they have coming.

But banning vaccines will directly result in many unnecessary deaths, particularly of children. Furthermore many will become the victim of lifelong disabilities. It doesn't matter who voted what. A 5 year old getting polio and being paralyzed from the waist down is by definition a bad thing. This 5 year old had nothing to do with any of it.

Fortunately I don't believe it will come to that. It would require pretty much all doctors in the entirety of the USA to "forget" all the medical knowledge they accumulated over the years. I'm sure there are many scumbags who will sidestep everything to make money. But I don't see how an an entire profession would let this happen.
I work with a lot of people who already don’t vaccinate their children. It’s been a movement for a long time.

another fun fact, in the US and Canada the decision to put fluoride in water is made at the state and local level, so the amount of influence RFK would have over that issue is up for debate. People might be worried for nothing.
what about a potential executive order by trump though. rfk himself said that it would be trump who would ban the fluoride

anyway, let's forget fluoride, i shouldn't have even brought it up, vaccines are a much bigger issue

it would be hard to find an executive order constitutional because precedent has that authority resting with local and state water agencies. it would most likely need to be legislated.

vaccines are another issue, as the dhhr is over the cdc. And the cdc currently makes recommendations for childhood vaccines. a point to make is that at the federal level, no vaccine is required, those decisions are also made at the local level, usually county or school districts. the most RFK Jr could do is stop the cdc from making recommendations or disband them or whatever. A full federal vaccine ban would also need to be legislated. State legislatures could ban vaccines like they have abortion.

that said there are other medical organizations that make recommendations such as the AAP, American association of pediatrics, and others who will most likely continue making those recommendations if RFK stops the cdc from doing so
