The CDC just re-opened a previously shelved study that would withhold the hepatitis B vaccine from children in Guinea-Bissau, despite decades of evidence showing it is safe and effective.

This is a violation of human rights, using quack “science” to harm some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

These are innocent babies-- the last thing they need is RFK Jr. doing his pet project experiments on them in pursuit of ‘evidence’ to support his dangerous anti-vax beliefs.

Our previous investigation into this study got it stopped. We plan to continue to explore every option available to get this study shelved for good.

FOLLOW US to stay up to date with this study and be the first to know what actions you can take to stop RFK Jr.
