Why RFK Jr as Health Secretary Could Be a Public Health Disaster

Описание: So, let’s talk about why Robert F. Kennedy Jr. should not be the Secretary of Health and Human Services if we want to avoid another public health disaster…

Did you know that RFK Jr. was one of the twelve people dubbed the “Disinformation Dozen” responsible for over 50% of misinformation in the United States during the height of the pandemic?

A lot of people like RFK Jr. for his advocacies on artificial food and the environment, and I have nothing against that; I believe those things are important. But if we’re going to have a conversation about health-related initiatives, I will not just sit here quietly as if I’m okay with him being appointed as the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.

Let me make this clear: I am not okay with this guy being the Secretary of Human and Health Services. There are people who are no longer here to listen to this episode because they passed away due to misinformation because of the likes of people like RFK Jr. But let’s be honest, despite his contribution to misinformation, some people might still not understand where I’m coming from.

That’s why in this episode of Medicine Mondays, I’ll be talking about some of the many reasons why RFK Jr. is not the man for the job, and more importantly, why an RFK Jr.-led Health and Human Services could lead to another public health disaster.

“Yes, I understand that there are some bridges that have been burnt down in regards to health information and communication and trust. But trust me, this person [Robert F.
