The nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services raises grave concerns over his promotion of unsubstantiated claims against vaccines and public health guidelines. His fringe views contradict established scientific evidence and undermine trust in institutions tasked with safeguarding public health. Appointing someone who has actively spread misinformation about proven disease prevention measures like vaccines and water fluoridation would be detrimental to the wellbeing of all Americans. I urge you to carefully scrutinize this nomination and reject Mr. Kennedy for a role that demands upholding rigorous scientific standards and protecting public health without compromise. The head of HHS must be someone who champions evidence-based policies and restores faith in public health agencies, not an ideologue who peddles conspiracy theories that endanger lives.
