Sen. James Lankford says he doesn't think RFK Jr. has 'gone a wrong direction' on vaccines [View all]

Sen. James Lankford, R-Okla., on Sunday declined to say that he had 100% confidence in Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., instead saying that Kennedy has not “gone a wrong direction” on vaccines.

The comments come just days after the Trump administration fired the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, triggering an exodus of senior CDC officials from the agency.

Asked the first time whether he has 100% confidence in Kennedy, whom he voted to confirm, Lankford demurred, telling NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that Kennedy isn’t limiting access to the Covid vaccine.

“It’s still widely accepted,” Lankford said.
