Bernie Sanders demands that RFK Jr step down as health secretary

Bernie Sanders has called for Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the current US health secretary, to resign from his position. In an op-ed published in the New York Times, Sanders accused Kennedy of "endangering the health of the American people" due to recent chaos and mismanagement within US health agencies under his leadership. The Vermont senator argued that Kennedy's views on various health-related issues, including his skepticism of vaccine safety, are not in line with scientific consensus and pose a significant risk to public health. Sanders urged Kennedy to step down from his role, stating that his continued presence as health secretary is detrimental to the well-being of the American people. The article highlights the growing public concern over Kennedy's suitability for the position and the need for the administration to address the issues raised by Sanders and others.
