RFK Jr. Slams Academy of Pediatrics for Big Pharma Ties

Catherine Salgado : Aug 20, 2025  PJ Media

"AAP is angry that CDC has eliminated corporate influence in decisions over vaccine recommendations and returned CDC to gold-standard science and evidence-based medicine laser-focused on children's health." -HHS Secretary RFK Jr.

[PJMedia.com] Corporate donors shouldn't be unfairly influencing child vaccine policy. That's the message Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has for the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). (Screengrab image: via X)

On August 19, Kennedy shared a screenshot from the website of the American Academy of Pediatrics, "thanking the organization's top corporate donors." The problem is that the four top donor companies make almost every single vaccine on the CDC's recommended childhood vaccine schedule. And shockingly, that shows up in AAP's vaccine recommendations and opinions on Kennedy's reforms of CDC guidance.

Merck, Moderna, Pfizer, and Sanofi are corporate donors to AAP. Unsurprisingly, therefore, AAP is less motivated to investigate the safety of the vaccines manufactured by these companies.

AAP provides advice to clinicians on talking parents, kids, and even pregnant women into as many vaccines as possible. But the organization also provides a vaccine schedule at variance with reformed HHS/CDC guidance, and Kennedy argues that this is due to Big Pharma donor influence.

Kennedy accused, "AAP is angry that CDC has eliminated corporate influence in decisions over vaccine recommendations and returned CDC to gold-standard science and evidence-based medicine laser-focused on children's health."

Hence, Kennedy explained, "AAP today released its own list of corporate-friendly vaccine recommendations. The Trump Administration believes in free speech and AAP has a right to make its case to the American people. But AAP should follow the lead of HHS and disclose conflicts of interest, including its corporate entanglements and those of its journal—Pediatrics—so that Americans may ask whether the AAP's recommendations reflect public health interest, or are, perhaps, just a pay-to-play scheme to promote commercial ambitions of AAP's Big Pharma benefactors."...
