RFK Jr Nominated as Top US Health Official by Donald Trump.
Former President Donald Trump has nominated Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS), a choice that has ignited widespread debate across political, health and industry sectors. Kennedy , a well-known critic of vaccine safety, pharmaceutical practices and government health policies, has pledged to introduce sweeping reforms to federal health agencies, including the CDC, FDA, and NIH.
Kennedy’s agenda includes revisiting vaccine safety protocols, addressing chronic diseases linked to industrial practices and removing fluoride from public drinking water—which he claims poses health risks. His nomination aligns with Trump’s emphasis on promoting “health freedom”, focusing on transparency and reducing corporate influence in public health decisions.
This decision has polarized opinions. Public health experts and scientists express concern that Kennedy’s controversial views could undermine confidence in vaccines and disrupt long-standing health policies. For example, Kennedy has questioned the Efficiency and safety of vaccines and suggested they could contribute to conditions like autism—claims widely refuted by extensive scientific research. However, supporters applaud his willingness to challenge entrenched norms, calling it a much-needed shake-up to restore accountability and public trust.
Trump described Kennedy as a leader d industry regulations for years to come.
