Summary
President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an outspoken anti-vaccine activist, to lead the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
Known for promoting debunked claims linking vaccines to autism, Kennedy’s appointment has sparked concerns within federal health agencies, with some FDA staff reportedly considering resignations.
Kennedy, who previously ran for president before endorsing Trump, has hinted at plans to overhaul the FDA, ban fluoride in drinking water, and reduce ultra-processed foods.
His nomination marks a significant potential shift for U.S. public health policy.
And when he dissolves elections, like he also said he would, who’s going to win you over then.
Again, the Democratic party lost this election, not me, or any other voter.
So while you identified a potential future problem, it feels like you’ve misdiagnosed who’s to blame for that possibility.
