Former CDC Vaccine Chief Demetre Daskalakis Who Resigns as Director of Immunization and Respiratory Diseases — Admits Data Will Soon Reveal Disturbing Link Between Vaccines, Autism, and Other Diseases: ‘This Is the Crux of My Concern’

This week, the dominoes began to fall at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Back in September 2023, the floundering Biden administration tapped Daskalakis—a self-proclaimed “trusted voice for the LGBTQ community”—to lead the White House’s national monkeypox response as Deputy Coordinator.

Fast-forward to Wednesday, and Daskalakis bolted from his role as Director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases at the CDC.

His exit came mere hours after CDC Director Susan Monarez was unceremoniously ousted, and on the very day RFK Jr. announced sweeping reforms to dismantle the vaccine mandates that crippled our economy and freedoms.

RFK Jr., true to his word and President Trump’s “Make America Healthy Again” agenda, declared victory in fulfilling key promises:

“I promised 4 things:

1. to end covid vaccine mandates.
2. to keep vaccines available to people who want them, especially the vulnerable.
3. to demand placebo-controlled trials from companies.
4. to end the emergency.”

This decisive action was apparently too much for the deep-state holdovers like Daskalakis, who couldn’t stomach the truth finally seeing the light of day. In a rambling, pronoun-laden resignation letter (signed “he/him”), Daskalakis whined about “non-transparency” and “manipulation of data.”

But the true revelation came in a follow-up interview with NBC’s Kristen Welker, where Daskalakis let slip the “crux of his concern.”

Welker pressed him on RFK Jr.’s longstanding warnings about vaccine risks, including the debunked-by-establishment-but-never-truly-disproven link to autism.

Kristen Welker:
“Well, to boil down what you’re saying: Secretary Kennedy has long pushed the disputed claim that there’s a link between vaccines for children and autism. This has been debunked by science for more than two decades now. Is that the crux of your concern? And is that the crux of the argument with Susan Monares—that there’s going to be an attempt to push that type of policy forward, an ideology forward?”

Demetre Daskalakis:
“I mean, let’s make a list. The secretary went on a video and said that the mRNA vaccines didn’t do anything in the pandemic and are the most dangerous vaccines known to humanity. That’s wrong. That’s untrue. The vaccines for COVID helped end the pandemic, and their safety track record is strong.

There are safety issues—yes, people do have adverse events. There’s no such thing as a zero-risk vaccine, nor is there such a thing as a 100% effective vaccine. That’s number one.

We can also talk about the fact that I think we have signals that there’s going to be retrofitting of data—or analysis of data—that really isn’t based on any good scientific methods, and that’s going to come to a conclusion that something is causing autism as well as other diseases related to vaccines.

I think alum is going to be pointed at. That’s another part of the vaccine that makes sure it causes the immune system to react appropriately to protect people from the pathogen they’re being vaccinated against. They’re going to have a story about alum.

They already had a story about thimerosal that led to the removal of thimerosal from the 4% of influenza vaccines that had it.

That’s not a very big win. Based on science that is really debunked, the FDA website right now is very clear in showing that thimerosal—that preservative—does not have any adverse events associated with it, especially in the space of autism and other neurocognitive issues.

Nevertheless, because there’s a half-truth somewhere in there—that maybe it’s great to prevent people from being exposed to anything extra they don’t need—we get to the place where a hunch is enough to remove a vaccine from the market. That is not a good precedent.”
