Failures uncovered as US health secretary touted ‘gold-standard’ science in health report ordered by Trump team
Robert F Kennedy Jr’s flagship health commission report contains citations to studies that do not exist, according to an investigation by the US publication Notus.
The report exposes glaring scientific failures from a health secretary who earlier this week threatened to ban government scientists from publishing in leading medical journals.
The 73-page “Make America healthy again” report – which was commissioned by the Trump administration to examine the causes of chronic illness, and which Kennedy promoted it as “gold-standard” science backed by more than 500 citations – includes references to seven studies that appear to be entirely invented, and others that the researchers say have been mischaracterized.

Ah, written by ChatGPT then.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. A human doesn’t accidentally cite multiple made up studies. So these fuckers are writing government policy by saying “Hey ChatCPT, write a scientific paper with citations about how vaccines are bad.”
