Robert F. Kennedy Jr., newly appointed as Health and Human Services Secretary, expressed hesitation in providing medical advice regarding vaccines during his first Congressional appearance. Responding to questions about vaccination for his family, he claimed such matters are irrelevant and stated he doesn't want to give advice. His responses have led critics, including public health experts, to argue that this stance undermines his responsibilities to provide guidance as the chief health strategist, especially amidst a measles outbreak among unvaccinated communities.
"I don't want to seem like I'm being evasive, but I don't think people should be taking advice, medical advice from me."
"The problem is that is his job - the top line of his job description - is the nation's chief health strategist."
