An advisor to Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. made bold claims that King Charles III and the Princess of Wales might have developed cancer as a result of receiving the Covid-19 vaccine.
Cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra cited already discredited studies when making the shock claim at a political conference in the UK on Saturday.
The vaccine critic referenced numerous studies suggesting negative impacts of the vaccine while citing British Professor Angus Dalgliesh’s perspective.
‘It may be a risk factor for cancer’, Malhotra said, adding that ‘many other doctors feel the same way’.
Referring to Professor Dalgliesh, he mentioned, “It’s quite possible that the Covid vaccines have played a role, potentially a major role, in the cancer faced by members of the Royal Family.”
King Charles has been undergoing cancer treatment since January of 2024, while the Princess of Wales has returned to public life while in remission.
The link between the jab and cancer has previously been dismissed by academics and oncologists after claims it had led to ‘turbo cancers.’
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) have firmly dismissed these claims, stating there is no proof linking the vaccine to cancer.
During his speech, Malhotra also claimed that taking the vaccine was more likely to cause harm than the actual virus.

‘It is highly likely that not a single person should have been injected with this,’ he said. ‘Nobody is immune to medical misinformation.’
Malhotra went on to say the World Health Organization had been ‘captured’ by Microsoft founder Bill Gates and urged for it to be replaced.
Recently, Mahlotra suggested that President Trump’s administration might consider removing Covid vaccines from the U.S. market “within months,” even if it leads to “disorder.”
In his brief comments on Saturday, he also portrayed himself as an ally of Kennedy, who faced significant scrutiny this week following a challenging bipartisan Senate hearing.
The two have socialized in the past and worked beside each other in a professional capacity, Malhotra also previously spoke to the Daily Mail about his MAHA plans.
At his Senate hearing, Kennedy expressed uncertainty about the number of Covid deaths and questioned the clarity of data from the CDC.
He did not explicitly claim that more deaths resulted from the vaccine than from the virus.
Kennedy also went on the defense of his recent efforts to pull back Covid vaccine recommendations.

He criticized CDC recommendations during the pandemic tied to lockdowns and masking policies.
Kennedy also claimed – wrongly – that they ‘failed to do anything about the disease itself.’
‘The people at CDC who oversaw that process, who put masks on our children, who closed our schools, are the people who will be leaving,’ he said.
The secretary later said they deserved to be fired for not doing enough to control chronic disease.
In a Labor Day post on Truth Social, President Trump claimed there is disagreement over whether the vaccines saved lives.
‘It is very important that the Drug Companies justify the success of their various Covid Drugs. Many people think they are a miracle that saved Millions of lives,’ Trump wrote. ‘Others disagree!’
‘With CDC being ripped apart over this question, I want the answer, and I want it NOW. I have been shown information from Pfizer, and others, that is extraordinary, but they never seem to show those results to the public. Why not???’
A July 2025 study published in the JAMA Health Forum found that Covid vaccinations averted 2.5 million deaths between 2022-2024.
The World Health Organization estimates over 7 million people have died from Covid across the globe.
Trump was asked at a White House dinner with tech leaders on Thursday night if he has full confidence in what Kennedy is doing.
Trump said he didn’t watch the hearings but said of Kennedy, ‘he means very well’ adding that he has ‘a different take, and we want to listen to all those takes.’
Kennedy’s hearing came a day after Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo announced that the state was eliminating all vaccine requirements for school kids.
