‘Distracting the public’: group of health professionals call for RFK Jr to be removed

A group of health professionals, organized under the grassroots organization Defend Public Health, have released a report calling for the removal of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The report highlights major health challenges in the US and accuses the HHS of "distracting the public" and engaging in "horrifying" activities. The report aims to address the perceived lack of information and misinformation from health officials, especially ahead of the second Maha report. Defend Public Health, which has around 3,000 members, argues that everything the HHS is doing is "horrifying" and that Kennedy's presence in the department is a cause for concern. The report is a response to the perceived lack of transparency and the spread of misinformation from the HHS, and the group is seeking to raise awareness and push for changes within the department.
