Kennedy, who has espoused complete falsehoods on vaccines risks, including the proven-untrue claim they cause autism, has boasted sweeping policy changes in his "Make America Healthy Again" (MAHA) plan.
Despite Kennedy's lofty goals, former FDA chief counsel Dan Troy noted that there's unlikely to be "seismic changes" within the agency, questioning who would have the expertise to implement meaningful reforms.
In a Thursday X post thanking Trump for his nod, Kennedy stated his intentions to "clean up corruption, stop the revolving door between industry and government, and return our health agencies to their rich tradition of gold-standard, evidence-based science."
Investors have already expressed panic over Kennedy's prospective HHS spot, with share prices of Big Pharma companies plummeting, including a 5% drop for Moderna.
