Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now head of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, represents a significant threat to public health, extending beyond American borders. Initially focused on environmental issues, Kennedy has transformed into a notable figure in promoting medical misinformation, particularly regarding vaccines and COVID-19. His influence, combined with rhetoric appealing to civil rights and personal freedom, has made once-fringe beliefs mainstream, risking public health policies. His aggressive approach has led to severe cutbacks at key health agencies, prompting Canadian medical experts to warn about the implications for their healthcare system.
RFK Jr. not only spreads medical misinformation but wraps those claims in civil rights rhetoric, pushing fringe beliefs into the national conversation with serious consequences.
Under RFK Jr.'s leadership, federal health infrastructure is porous, with mass layoffs at health agencies, which Canadian doctors warn could have serious cross-border effects.
