RFK Jr. wants to improve Americans' health. Here's some advice from the outgoing FDA chief
Briefly

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticized the FDA as a "corrupt system" and has vowed to make drastic changes, threatening job security for thousands.
Dr. Robert Califf emphasizes the complexities of managing the FDA, noting that there are multiple stakeholders, including Congress and the executive branch, each with their expectations.
Califf advocates for understanding the nuanced role of the FDA in public health, particularly in areas like infant formula access and tobacco product regulation, which are more complicated than they appear.
The incoming administration’s approach to health policy, as suggested by Kennedy's views, might overlook the dedication and expertise of the FDA professionals who genuinely strive to improve public health.
