Former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius on RFK Jr. being tapped for the top U.S. health role: “Having somebody with the title of Secretary of Health and Human Services say in very definitive terms, ‘there is no vaccine that's safe and effective,’ actually will cause death. It is a life and death situation.
As a physician who has dedicated my life to improving public health, I find myself deeply troubled and, frankly, alarmed at the prospect of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. becoming the secretary of Health and Human Services. This isn’t just a matter of political disagreement. It’s a scenario that could have profound, far-reaching consequences for the health and well-being of every American, including you and your loved ones.
The FDA has drawn Kennedy’s particular attention, and he has said he intends to overhaul the agency, specifically its nutrition regulators. While improving our food system is a worthy goal, Kennedy’s approach, which includes promoting raw milk consumption, could expose Americans to increased risks from foodborne illnesses. Kennedy’s national reputation was built on his environmental advocacy, but even there his approach has been antiscientific.
