Prominent vaccine makers saw their shares plunge last week after Donald Trump announced that RFK Jr. would lead Health and Human Services during his second term.

Just hours after Trump picked Kennedy, Pfizer’s stock fell 4.3%. Moderna’s stock dropped by 3.1% and Novavax’s by 2.8%.

InfoWars reports: In the lead-up to the announcement, which was widely expected, Pfizer’s stock fell by 2%, and Moderna and Novavax stock fell by 6%.

Other vaccine makers including GSK and Germany’s BioNTech also experienced sharp declines.

Donald Trump has refused to rule out banning certain vaccines during his second term.

Trump, who has linked vaccines to autism in the past, said banning vaccines would remain an option.

“Well, I’m going to talk to [RFK Jr.] and talk to other people, and I’ll make a decision, but he’s a very talented guy and has strong views,” Trump said.

Kennedy has spent decades campaigning to highlight the harmful, even deadly, side effects of vaccines and the double tragedy of families having a child injured by a vaccine only to hit a wall of denials and smears in their quest for justice.

“The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country,” Trump said in a post on X, announcing Kennedy’s appointment.
