This is not a decision that was made by scientists or government experts. Remember that former drug addict RFK had to fire the entire CDC panel of science experts to advance his crackpot pseudoscience shit. The one sided stuff you read on the internet has not been vetted by people with the level of knowledge to evaluate things in their proper context.

There will definitely be increased American deaths because of this. Trump values our lives very cheaply. RNA vaccines are way more safe than the normal DNA vaccines. I've had the Covid RNA vaccine 6 times and it's outrageous that hard right extremists are making this life saving medicine hard to get.
