Jenny McCarthy is a model, actress, bestselling author, and star in The Masked Singer. But to the media, she’s been called “the nation’s most prominent purveyor of anti-vaxxer ideology” and “the face of the anti-vaxx movement.”
Jenny became a lightning rod for the childhood vaccine controversy after publicly revealing her son’s 2005 autism diagnosis and near-death experience, which led her to explore alternative treatments and push for safer childhood vaccine schedules. McCarthy says labeling her an “anti-vaxxer” is inaccurate: she is simply a mother fighting for a safer childhood vaccine schedule.
