Via Washington Post (emphasis added):

The United States will halt its contributions to Gavi, the global alliance that works to expand access to vaccines for children in some of the world's poorest countries, said Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Wednesday — a move that public health experts said would have deadly consequences.

Kennedy, who has a history of spreading vaccine misinformation, announced the decision in video remarks made to a Gavi summit in Brussels, during which he accused the group of neglecting "the key issue of vaccine safety."...

In his remarks, Kennedy cited a study linking the DTP vaccine — for diphtheria, a highly contagious bacterial infection that kills 5 to 10 percent of those affected, as well as tetanus and pertussis — to increased child mortality. Kennedy also said Gavi should "consider the best science available," and "re-earn the public trust."

The Bezos paper didn't actually cite or quote the DTP study referenced by Kennedy, so I went and found it.

Via Frontiers in Public Health, 2018 (emphasis added):

In the 1980s, the suburb Bandim in the capital of Guinea-Bissau was followed with demographic surveillance and tri-monthly weighing sessions for children under 3 years of age. From June 1981, routine vaccinations were offered at the weighing sessions. We calculated mortality hazard ratio (HR) for DTP-vaccinated and DTP-unvaccinated children aged 6–35 months...

Though lower mortality compared with not being DTP-vaccinated was... expected, DTP vaccination was associated with a non-significant trend in the opposite direction...

Although having better nutritional status and being protected against three infections, 6–35 months old DTP-vaccinated children tended to have higher mortality than DTP-unvaccinated children. All studies of the introduction of DTP have found increased overall mortality.

"That's a shocking conclusion. If it's true the DTP vaccine results in greater death in children, not less, then why haven't these findings been replicated in the US?" is the rational follow-up question. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
