Fact Check: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Did NOT Win Supreme Court Ruling On COVID Vaccine Causing ‘Irreparable’ Harm — There’s No Case
Did Robert F. Kennedy Jr. win a Supreme Court lawsuit against pharmaceutical companies and prove that the COVID-19 vaccine does irreparable damage? No, that’s not true: No such case was found in the Supreme Court docket. Lead Stories has previously debunked the claim that the Supreme Court has ruled that the COVID-19 vaccine is harmful.
The claim appeared in a Facebook post (archived here) on September 5, 2022. The caption starts:
Supreme Court ruling hardly anyone noticed that Robert F Kennedy Jr won the case against all the pharmaceutical lobbyists.
This is what the post looked like on Facebook at the time of writing:

The caption claims the Supreme Court confirmed that the COVID vaccine causes irreparable gene therapy damage to people who get it. There are no dates mentioned or pharmaceutical lobbies named in the Facebook post.
The caption also says the Nuremberg Code is now “valid.” The Nuremberg Code is a list of ethical, moral and legal principles developed after World War II, specifically in response to the inhumane experiments done by Nazi soldiers on human subjects without the subject’s consent. Lead Stories previously debunked the claim that mandatory vaccines are in violation of the Nuremberg Code. The Code applies to human experimentation, not government-approved vaccinations.
Searching for Kennedy’s name in the Supreme Court’s docket search resulted in zero cases. The screenshot below shows nothing was found on the Supreme Court’s docket search when searching for the name “Robert F. Kennedy Jr.”:
