Robert Kennedy Junior defended on Wednesday against positions he launched against the vaccination, stressing that he is not “opposed” during his speech to the Senate responsible for firming him at the head of the Ministry of Health.
He assured the members of the Finance Committee in Congress during a tense hearing that “newspaper articles claimed that I was anti -vaccine or against any other industry, but I am not as a supporter of safety.”
Democratic Senator Ron Wadeen replied, “You say something and then reflect it. Today you deny that you are against vaccines, but during a radio interview in July 2023 I said and quoted: There is no safe and effective vaccine.”
In recent years, Robert Kennedy Junior has echoed many conspiracy theories about the Kofid-19 vaccines, in addition to the alleged link between pollination and autism.
They are allegations that his critics denounced and also accused him of provoking the lack of confidence in pollination in the Samoa Islands before the measles epidemic appeared in 2019, which killed 83 people.
“Kennedy adhered to the conspiracy theories (…) he sought to sow suspicion and the captivity of the families of vaccinating her children to save their lives,” Widan said.
Alarm signals
Because of these previous situations, Kennedy’s appointment is a great concern among scientists and medical teams, at a time when the spread of bird flu virus in the United States leads to fears of a new pandemic.
The critics described it as not qualified at all for the position, citing his promotion of exposed allegations linking measles vaccines with autism, and its suggestion that HIV does not cause AIDS, in addition to its financial interests in law firm companies that sue pharmaceutical companies.
At the same time, I commend the former democratic on its slogan “to make America healthy again” in harmony with the Trump logo “to make America great again”, and its focus on combating chronic diseases scattered in the country by eating healthy foods and giving priority to well -being.
What increases the complexity of his appointment is the concerns raised by the governorate group founded by Mike Pence, former Vice President, regarding previous donations that Kennedy made to organizations that support access to abortion, an issue that can deny Republicans and threaten his chances of obtaining the necessary fifty votes.
“I agree with President Trump that every miscarriage is a tragedy,” he said, adding that the Republican President asked him to reassess the safety of the drug MEFPressone, a tablet that is integrated with another disk used in drug abortion in the United States.
“His Kennedy’s position on many health issues is inconsistent with established scientific knowledge, and these are warning signs.”
Opposition
Despite his attempt to reduce his doubts about vaccines in recent months, Kennedy has spent two decades promoting conspiracy theories of vaccines, especially with regard to the Coffee-19 vaccines that he described as “the most deadly ever.”
He also stated that he drinks fresh milk exclusively, saying that unambiguous milk is “beneficial to health”, a position that still adheres to even with the spread of bird flu in the United States, which has been proven to pollute unpasteurized milk.
Another thing that is constantly talking about is the presence of fluoride in the country’s general water supply, which entered the middle of the twentieth century to reduce tooth decay.
While his criticism of this practice has sparked controversy, it was supported by some in the scientific community who are asking whether the benefits of the water frustration exceed the risk of potential nerve toxicity, especially since fluoride is now easily available through toothpaste.
Strange behavior
Kennedy initially nominated independently in the 2024 presidential elections, igniting the campaign with a series of strange news that dominated the media scene.
Talking about his claim to recover from a parasitic brain worm in a report by the New York Times.
He also posted a video that acknowledged that before a six -month dirt cub was held in Central Park after he initially planned to skin him to eat his flesh.
At the same time, it was reported that a government agency began an investigation into his daughter’s claim that he used one time a saw to behead a hypocritical whale.
His decision was met with Trump’s support after his withdrawal from the race to the White House to denounce his brothers, and on Tuesday, his cousin Caroline Kennedy sent a harsh message to the Senate members, calling them to refuse to appoint him, and said that he pushed his younger relatives towards drug addiction.
“The basement and car park of his home and his bedroom were centers in which he made drugs available, at a time when he enjoyed showing off the placing of chicken chicken and mice in the mixer to feed the hawks,” wrote Caroline Kennedy, the daughter of former President John Kennedy, a former ambassador and a previous defense minister.
