Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is under scrutiny for his stance on vaccinations amid a measles outbreak in Texas, which has claimed its first life. Most cases are among the unvaccinated Mennonite community, known for vaccine resistance. The article urges Kennedy to promote the safety of vaccines and to fulfill his commitment to public health. His recent announcement of an investigation into the vaccine schedule raises questions about his sincerity in advocating for immunizations, and the article urges him to prove his commitment to vaccination and public trust.
