In a recent interview with Megyn Kelly, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made a bold claim about Dr. Anthony Fauci and the emergency use authorization of COVID-19 vaccines. According to Kennedy Jr., a little-known federal law prohibits the issuance of an emergency use authorization for a vaccine if there is any medication approved for any purpose that is shown effective against the target disease. Kennedy Jr. contends that if Fauci had admitted that hydroxychloroquine or ivermectin are effective against COVID-19, it would have been illegal to authorize the vaccines for emergency use, resulting in the collapse of a $200 billion enterprise. This claim raises important questions about the role of politics and money in the development and approval of COVID-19 vaccines.
