The new head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has just pulled the rug from under the pharmaceutical industry by warning the public that natural immunity offers far greater protection from viruses than “vaccines.”
With Robert F. Kennedy Jr. leading the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), newly appointed FDA Commissioner Dr. Marty Makary is delivering a much-needed dose of reality to Washington’s public health establishment.
Makary, a world-renowned Johns Hopkins surgeon, is confronting what he calls the “flawed and politicized” dogma about “vaccines” that has defined the Covid era.
In a recent tense exchange with CBS’s Margaret Brennan, Makary made it clear that he will not favor blindly pushing shots on healthy children without hard evidence.
“We’re not going to push Covid shots on healthy kids without any clinical trial data supporting it,” he said.
Makary’s core argument is simple: decisions must be backed by data, not government talking points.
He’s criticized the CDC’s sweeping recommendation for annual Covid boosters, especially for children and young, healthy adults.
“It’s been four to five years since we’ve had a proper study,” Makary noted on Fox News.
“They’re recommending it based on nothing.”
He’s also drawing attention to myocarditis, a rare but serious side effect linked to mRNA vaccines, particularly in young men.
Citing both U.S. and Israeli studies, he warns that these risks have been downplayed by federal health officials in their rush to “vaccinate” everyone.
Makary has long argued that natural immunity was unjustly ignored.
He’s long pointed to an Israeli study from 2021 showing that people who recovered from Covid had 27 times greater protection against symptomatic reinfection than those who were vaccinated.
“If you’ve had the infection, you should be stepping aside in the vaccine line,” Makary said in 2021.
The statement sparked outrage among public health bureaucrats, but now resonates with growing numbers of Americans.
WATCH:
Makary’s appointment has rattled establishment figures in academia and Big Pharma.
Critics like Yale’s Dr. Reshma Ramachandran worry about “politicization,” while defenders like Harvard’s Dr. Aaron Kesselheim insist early vaccine policies were made with “the best information available.”
But to Makary and his supporters, that’s not good enough.
“We saw lives upended, careers destroyed, and medical choices taken away — all without rigorous science to back it,” said Baltimore nurse Lisa Carter.
“Dr. Makary’s just saying what many of us have known for years.”
In May 2025, Makary, alongside CBER Director Dr. Vinay Prasad, announced that Covid “vaccines” would now be limited to those 65+ or at high risk, pending stronger data for broader use.
This marks the first major rollback of federal Covid “vaccine” recommendations — and a sharp departure from years of blanket mandates.
“We’re not going to blindly rubber-stamp vaccines for teenagers every year in perpetuity,” Makary told PBS.

Makary’s vision goes beyond vaccine policy.
He’s working with RFK Jr. to shut the revolving door between Big Pharma and federal regulators — a move both say is essential to restoring public trust in health institutions.
“We’re going to be a department that’s focused on science, not industry influence,” Kennedy said at Makary’s nomination.
For Americans tired of being dismissed for questioning Covid orthodoxy, Makary represents a long-overdue course correction.
In a health system plagued by arrogance and politicization, he’s demanding transparency, humility, and actual evidence.
“We need transparency, not mandates,” Makary said.
And for the millions sidelined, silenced, or punished during the pandemic, his message may finally offer hope that truth is making a comeback in American medicine.
