President-elect Trump has publicly defended his decision to appoint Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the new secretary of health and human services. During his first news conference following the election, Trump faced questions regarding Kennedy's controversial stance on vaccines. In response, he expressed confidence in Kennedy's approach, stating, "I think he's going to be much less radical than you would think."
Kennedy, known for his vocal skepticism about vaccine safety, has sparked debate among health officials and the public alike. However, Trump emphasized that Kennedy’s expertise and experience in public health would be beneficial in addressing the nation’s health challenges. The president-elect's remarks suggest a belief that Kennedy's perspective could lead to a more balanced dialogue on health policies.
As the new administration prepares to take office, the appointment has raised eyebrows, but Trump remains steadfast in his choice, asserting that Kennedy's leadership will foster a constructive approach to health issues in the country.
