Do not see evil and listen to evil. In a recent interview, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The US Minister of Health and Welfare professed that he did not know anything about the plan to remove billions of dollars in the Trump administration’s state and local health departments.
The obvious ignorance of RFK JR. was displayed for a while. First network TV interview As a HHS secretary aired on Wednesday in CBS News. At one point, CBS News Best Medical Correspondent JON LAPOOK Asked Kennedy replied that he was “not accustomed to the cut” regardless of whether he personally approved the federal government’s attempt to withdraw $ 11 billion for the Ministry of Health. But it’s just Kennedy’s latest messaging flag.
At the end of March, HHS sent a letter to various health parties that announced that it would immediately end $ 11.4 billion in federal subsidies, which are expected to continue until September. Subsidies were allocated as a response to Covid-19 Pandemic, but Assignment Various public health initiatives, such as the support community mental health services, materials prevention and treatment program support and efforts to prevent and respond to new infectious diseases.
More than 20 stock prices have filed a lawsuit against HHS and federal governments to prevent financing. Last week, the district judge agreed Temporarily blocked Suspension of funds until the court case is decided.
All of this happened as a new HHS secretary of RFK JR. and became a new HHS secretary that began in mid -February, and his real name for his cuts was more embarrassing and suspicious.
In fact, shortly after he said he was not used to the withdrawal of funds, RFK seemed to change tacks. HHS did before announce Last month’s diversity, equity and inclusiveness (DEI) and so -called “sex ideology” research projects to reduce financing cuts. But according to HHS at the time, the project amounted to $ 350 million.
Kennedy, of course, did not think exactly the facts during the reign as the head of HHS. For example, RFK JR. has given good advice and bad advice in response to the growth of measles that affect Texas and other states. He humble vaccinations as the most effective measure of measles, including CBS News Interview, but not supported some viral diseases such as Daegu liver oil supplements and potentially dangerous treatment.
The Trump administration went ahead for access to public health. And our expandable leaders, such as RFK JR., are stupid about the destruction of ignorant or throughout the nation’s health institutions.
