Kennedy Jr.’s Plans For Public Health"},"content":{"rendered":"

On Friday, The Epoch Times<\/a> posted an article listing five things Robert F. Kennedy plans to do if he is confirmed as head of Health and Human Services (HHS).<\/p>\n

This is the list:<\/p>\n

1. Staff Changes<\/b><\/h2>\n

Kennedy believes little will change until giant or private corporations stop controlling the FDA, the CDC, and the Department of Agriculture.<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. Chemicals and Ultra-Processed Foods<\/b><\/h2>\n

A staunch advocate for regulating chemicals in food, Kennedy recently suggested that Americans should return to using tallow fat instead of seed oils. He has chastised food manufacturers for using ingredients such as artificial dyes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n

3. Corporate Capture of Agencies<\/b><\/h2>\n

\u201cEighty percent of NIH grants go to people who have conflicts of interest,\u201d Kennedy said on Aug. 23.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
\u201cThese agencies, the FDA, the USDA, the CDC, all of them are controlled by giant for-profit corporations. Seventy-five percent of the FDA funding doesn\u2019t come from taxpayers. It comes from pharma. And pharma executives and consultants and lobbyists cycle in and out of these agencies,\u201d Kennedy said.<\/strong><\/div>\n

<\/h1>\n

4. Vaccines<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Cast as an \u201canti-vaxxer\u201d by critics, Kennedy has consistently said that he isn\u2019t against vaccines, but he believes in vaccine safety and informed consent.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

During an interview with The Epoch Times last year, he explained his stance.<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n
\n

5. Fluoride<\/b><\/h2>\n

On Nov. 2, Kennedy wrote in a post on X that one of Trump\u2019s first acts in office would be to advise U.S. water systems to remove fluoride from public water.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Kennedy\u2019s announcement was made as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is under a federal court order to take action over potential health concerns, including that fluoride might lower children\u2019s IQ \u201cat dosages that are far too close to fluoride levels in the drinking water of the United States,\u201d stemming in large part from a report<\/a> published by the National Institutes of Health.<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
All of of these proposals are perfectly reasonable. However, they are a serious threat to the status quo. Over the years, there have been a lot of people in our government who are not looking out for the interests of Americans. Many of those people have gotten extremely wealthy through their misdeeds. I look forward to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., beginning to change that dynamic.<\/div>\n
