Reports: RFK Jr. ordered measles deaths deletion; CDC still secretly counts them
摘要
美国疾控中心仍在内部统计两例麻疹死亡病例，但已应卫生部长小罗伯特·肯尼迪要求将其从公开数据中删除。据路透社报道，肯尼迪指示新任疾控中心主任删除相关信息，工作人员虽已核实死亡与麻疹相关，但仍执行了删除操作。这两例死亡涉及宾夕法尼亚州一名新生儿和一名儿童，该州麻疹疫情已致540人感染。
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is still secretly counting two measles deaths that were deleted from the agency's public measles data—a deletion that occurred at the direct request of anti-vaccine Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., according to two reports released today.
Early today, Reuters reported that Kennedy instructed new CDC director Erica Schwartz to delete the two deaths from the agency's website. CDC staff had reportedly already reviewed information about the deaths and accepted the characterization that they were measles-related. Still, Schwartz deleted the deaths without objection, insiders told Reuters. According to previous reporting, the two deaths were added and then removed from the CDC's website within hours on August 30.
The deaths were of a newborn and a child, and they were reported last week by health officials in Pennsylvania. The state's ongoing measles outbreak has sickened 540 so far, including 119 just in the last week.
