RFK Jr. says Trump has ‘promised’ him ‘control of the public health agencies’

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. revealed this week that former President Trump has “promised” him control over public health agencies, including HHS, CDC, FDA, NIH, and USDA, if Trump wins in November.

Kennedy, an anti-vaccine advocate, endorsed Trump after suspending his independent campaign.

Medical experts, like former Surgeon General Jerome Adams, expressed concerns about Kennedy’s influence, warning it could increase vaccine hesitancy.

Trump has praised Kennedy’s stance on health but remains cautious about his environmental views, stating he would focus on health initiatives instead, ABC News has reported.

The Trump campaign emphasized collaboration with Kennedy to address chronic health issues, though no Cabinet decisions have been made.
