RFK Jr. Eyes Major FDA Overhaul Amid Vaccine Skepticism in Trump Era

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who endorsed President-elect Trump, is expected to play a significant role in the new administration, potentially in health care. Kennedy has criticized the FDA, suggesting some departments need to be eliminated for not protecting children. While there is speculation about him becoming the Health and Human Services secretary, which requires Senate confirmation, it is more likely he will take a role not needing such approval. Howard Lutnick, co-chair of Trump's transition team, stated Kennedy will not lead HHS.
