Trump chooses anti-fluoride anti-vaxxer as his US Health Secretary
Robert F Kennedy Jr is a lawyer who says fluoride is 'industrial waste' and HPV vaccines raise the risk of cervical cancer.
Robert F Kennedy Jr is one of the world’s most prominent vaccine sceptics, and now the founder of the anti-vaccine group Children’s Health Defense has been nominated by president-elect Donald Trump as his chosen Secretary of Health and Human Services.
In Mr Trump’s own words, at a rally two days before the US election, the plan is to let Mr Kennedy “go wild on health” and “wild on medicines”.
