Former President Trump and his associates, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., have raised concerns about their potential influence on public health. Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic, has claimed Trump promised him control of public health agencies. Trump has indicated that Kennedy would work on health issues if re-elected. Kennedy’s proposals include healthcare reform and investigating environmental impacts on health. However, his views on vaccines and pharmaceutical influence have sparked fear among Democrats and former Trump officials. Despite criticism, some within the Trump campaign support Kennedy’s ideas. Meanwhile, Ted Kennedy Jr., a healthcare lawyer and disability rights advocate, warns of the dangers of anti-vaccine rhetoric and questions Trump’s ability to attract competent healthcare policymakers.
