Bobby Kennedy's Confirmation and Public Health Reform
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been confirmed as Secretary of Health and Human Services, a significant move that reflects a shift towards skepticism about mainstream public health policies. His confirmation is seen as a response to the overpowering influence of pharmaceutical companies and ineffective public health responses during the COVID-19 pandemic.
