In a critical step, U.S. Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has withdrawn a $1.2 billion pledge to the Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization (Gavi), demanding accountability for the $8 billion already spent.

Kennedy’s bold move halts funding until the organization “re-earns the public trust” and addresses serious vaccine safety concerns that have long been ignored by global health organizations.
Kennedy made the announcement this week, stating that the U.S. will no longer contribute to Gavi until the organization demonstrates a renewed commitment to scientific integrity.
His decision comes after concerns about Gavi’s approach to vaccine safety and questionable recommendations during the Covid-19 pandemic.
During his announcement, Kennedy didn’t mince words about his concerns regarding the global vaccine alliance.
“When the science was inconvenient, Gavi ignored the science,” Kennedy declared, highlighting a pattern of dismissing scientific evidence that contradicted established vaccination narratives.
The Health Secretary specifically cited Gavi’s controversial recommendations for pregnant women to receive Covid-19 vaccines despite limited safety data.
He also criticized Gavi and the World Health Organization for allegedly collaborating to silence dissenting scientific views during the pandemic, a concern many Americans shared as censorship became increasingly common on social media platforms.
“I call on Gavi today to re-earn the public trust and to justify the $8 billion that America has provided in funding since 2001,” Kennedy said.
“And I’ll tell you how to start taking vaccine safety seriously: Consider the best science available, even when the science contradicts established paradigms. Until that happens, the United States won’t contribute more to Gavi,” he added.
The U.S. has been a major contributor to Gavi, providing approximately 13% of its budget with a previous pledge of $2.53 billion from 2022 to 2030.
The Biden administration had earlier promised $1.58 billion to the organization, which is now being reconsidered under Kennedy’s leadership.
Gavi, established in 2000, claims to have vaccinated 1.1 billion children and saved 20 million lives.
However, Kennedy’s decision signals a significant shift in how American tax dollars will be spent on global health initiatives, prioritizing transparency and scientific rigor over blind adherence to establishment health organizations.
While global health bureaucrats express concern over the funding cut, many Americans are applauding Kennedy’s stand for accountability.
Kennedy has already made waves in his short tenure as Health Secretary by replacing the CDC’s vaccine advisory panel with his own picks and restricting Covid-19 vaccine access where safety concerns exist.
The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, a major Gavi supporter, has pledged $1.6 billion to the organization and encouraged others to increase donations in the wake of the U.S. withdrawal.
This raises questions about the influence of private billionaire foundations in global health policy and whether such organizations should have such outsized influence on worldwide vaccination programs.
