Summary

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a vocal vaccine skeptic, has been confirmed as Trump’s Secretary of Health and Human Services in a 52-48 Senate vote.

Public health experts strongly oppose his appointment, warning he could undermine vaccination efforts and public trust in science. Kennedy has spread misinformation about vaccines, HIV, and other health issues.

Trump has signaled Kennedy will have broad authority over health policies. Despite claiming he now supports vaccines, his past statements raise concerns.

Medical organizations and experts overwhelmingly condemned his confirmation, calling it a “slap in the face.”
