As authors of these studies, scholars mistakenly listed U.S. government reports on children’s health to support its findings with “completely fabricated” research.

The report was first released on May 22 and details the causes of the "chronic disease crisis" in children in the United States. On May 29, a revised version was released on May 29 after digital media Notus discovered that it used seven non-existent sources.

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said there was a "formatting issue" and the report would be updated, but "no negated the substance of the report."

U.S. Secretary of Health Robert F Kennedy Jr has led the department behind the department, which has brought forward the claims of uncovering autism caused by vaccines.

It was on the back of a grand order by Donald Trump earlier this year, especially to "study the scope of the chronic disease crisis in children and any potential causes."

The report concluded that is issued by the Commission that makes the United States healthy again, poor diet, environmental toxins, stress, inadequate physical exercise and “overmedicalization” may lead to chronic diseases in children in the United States.

But the authors of several studies cited in the report told the news media that they did not write about them and that the study never existed.

Columbia University professor Guohua Li, who was appointed as the author of the Pandemic Child Mental Health Report, told Agence France-Presse that the reference was "completely fabricated" and he didn't even know the listed co-author.

He was listed as a writer along with Columbia University researcher Noah Kreski, who also denied writing and told AFP that “no research appears to be at all.”

"It really concerns me, given that citation practice is an important part of conducting and reporting rigorous science," Katherine Keyes, a professor of epidemiology, told the news agency that she was also misnamed as a writer, saying.

The university that hired him told AFP and Reuters that another study on advertising for youth psychotropic drugs.

The Democratic National Committee accused the RFK Department of Health and Human Services of “proving that its policy priorities are priorities with non-existent sources” and used a quote that “flooded, from broken links to misunderstood conclusions.”

RFK JR was sworn in as U.S. Secretary of Health in February. Since taking office, he has laid off thousands of jobs in the health department and plans to introduce placebo trials for all new vaccines.
