[RFK Jr.'s] group set up a fake CDC site full of vaccine disinfo.
Very reminiscient of the fake "abortion" websites antis put up, to trick women seeking abortions into being too afraid to do it.

🧵NEW: A CDC clone website is filled with false and misleading vaccine claims against a backdrop of false balance. The NGO (Children's Health Defense) led by the current HHS Secretary until December 2024 is hosting content for the CDC clone.

CDC Clone Site, Rife with False Vaccine Claims, Hosted by Group Previously Led by HHS Secretary
A CDC clone site with false vaccine claims is hosted by an NGO once led by the current HHS Secretary. With CDC logos, real social media links, and a near-identical design, it may violate federal laws.

Overview
A CDC clone website is filled with false and misleading vaccine claims against a backdrop of false balance. An NGO led by the current HHS Secretary until December 2024 is hosting content for the CDC clone. The domain realcdc[.]org currently redirects to this CDC clone, which is staged on chdstaging[.]org.
The site uses CDC logos, real CDC social media links, and authoritative language, raising serious legal concerns under federal impersonation statutes. This deceptive staging site risks misleading parents, undermining public trust, and even violating federal law.
It also raises an inevitable critical question: Is the HHS Secretary aware of the site, and if so, how will he address this conflict of interest and take action on an apparent effort to impersonate a federal agency?
