US health agency workers accuse RFK Jr of fueling violence against them
In a letter signed by over 750 current and former federal health employees, the US health agency workers have accused Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Health and Human Services (HHS) secretary, of fueling harassment and violence against government healthcare staff. The letter claims that Kennedy's rhetoric and decisions, such as removing members from a CDC vaccine advisory panel, questioning the safety of the measles vaccine, and firing key CDC staff, have contributed to the harassment and violence experienced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) staff. The workers argue that these actions have sown distrust in federal medical professionals and played a role in a recent attack at the CDC's Atlanta headquarters.
