Bill Nye confronted Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over vaccine misinformation shared through text messages. They engaged in a discussion where Nye challenged Kennedy's views, emphasizing the disconnect between causation and correlation in vaccine-related claims. He criticized Kennedy's judgment regarding health policies, particularly in light of a recent measles outbreak linked to low vaccination rates in certain communities. Nye firmly stands against the notion that individuals have a right to refuse vaccinations, citing public health risks associated with unvaccinated populations.
"If you read these articles he sent, they're all this speculation about autism and just cause-and-effect, and mercury in vaccines, that maybe there's a connection."
"He does not have good judgment. He is not suited for [health secretary]."
"There's an outbreak of measles in Texas. Did you hear about this? It was a religious sect that has historically low vaccination rates."
