This claim is false. The commenter that made this claim is not a reputable source and provides no source, and has used an anonymous blue sky social media account to make several inflammatory remarks with nothing to back it up. RFK has used his nonprofit organization as a weapon to file many frivolous charges against vaccines but almost all have been immediately shot down. However these lawsuits bring media attention to anti-vaxxing conspiracies which are then parroted by social media accounts such as the one linked above.
