Nicole Saphier, radiologist and the director of breast imaging at Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK) Monmouth & Fox News contributor, joins the show to discuss Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s Senate testimony, vaccines, and public health policy. She argues that the Biden administration, not RFK Jr. or Trump, is responsible for today’s vaccine distrust due to mismanagement and overreach during COVID. Addressing claims that vaccines may trigger cancer or autism, she stressed that while inflammation can spark disease, evidence linking vaccines directly is limited and inconclusive. Saphier emphasized the need to distinguish between vaccines—highlighting the importance of measles and polio shots, while questioning mandates for hepatitis B or repeated boosters like whooping cough and COVID. She criticized the CDC as politicized and broken, warning against swinging from one extreme to another, and called for balanced, science-driven leadership. Ultimately, she said repealing all vaccine mandates, as Florida proposes, goes too far—legislatures should evaluate each vaccine individually rather than an “all or nothing” approach.
