In late August, a British “doctor” named Aseem Malhotra told media outlets that Robert Kennedy Jr. plans to pull all Covid vaccines off the market in the United States. You see, Malhotra is an anti-vaccine lunatic, and even more specifically, he spreads dangerous lies about the Covid vaccines. He’s also a special advisor to RFK Jr., as well as some kind of associate of Nigel Farage. Well, Malhotra was invited to speak at a Reform Party conference in the UK. During his speech, Malhotra suggested that the Princess of Wales and King Charles’s cancer diagnoses are linked to the Covid vaccine.

A British doctor has claimed at Reform UK’s annual conference there may be a link between Covid vaccines and members of the royal family getting cancer. Dr Aseem Malhotra quoted a claim that the vaccination was a “significant factor” in the diagnoses of King Charles and the Princess of Wales.

The King was diagnosed with an undisclosed form of cancer in February 2024. A month later, the princess announced that she was undergoing preventative chemotherapy after cancer was detected during tests.

Wes Streeting, the health secretary, said Malhotra’s words were dangerous and risked fuelling drops in childhood vaccinations. “When we are seeing falling numbers of parents getting their children vaccinated, and a resurgence of disease we had previously eradicated, it is shockingly irresponsible for Nigel Farage to give a platform to these poisonous lies,” he said. “Farage should apologise and sever all ties with this dangerous extremism.”

Malhotra, who is an adviser to the US health secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr (RFK), was speaking on the mainstage at Reform’s conference in Birmingham on Saturday. He was introduced by the party’s chairman, Dr David Bull, who described him as a “brilliant clinician” and “vociferous public health campaigner” who had written “Reform’s health policy” alongside him.

In a speech focusing heavily on alleged harms from Covid-19 vaccines, Malhotra said he had been asked to share findings from “one of Britain’s most eminent oncologists, Professor Angus Dalgleish” that “he thinks it’s highly likely that the Covid vaccines have been a factor, a significant factor, in the cancer of members of the royal family.”

I’m just disgusted. These are repulsive lies and these lies are extremely dangerous to the public health in the UK and America. What’s even crazier is that it’s not like Kate or Charles took up major roles in promoting vaccinations whatsoever. All of the working royals were actually part of superspreader events, and they were openly breathing on people constantly in the height of the pandemic. Charles didn’t even share photos of his “jab,” although Kensington Palace did share a photo of Kate getting a vaccine (for which she was praised for role-modeling good public health). Anyway, of course no one in Britain should platform this dangerous lunatic. I hope the American press rips into him too.
