RFK Jr.’s Bold Reassurance to Anti-Vaxxers (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Since becoming Health and Human Services secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has repeatedly denied that he opposes vaccines and has toned down some of his more extreme rhetoric on the subject. But in a keynote speech today at a conference for Children’s Health Defense, the anti-vaccine organization he founded, the old Kennedy was back.

The drug—part of a class called peptides—has been around for decades. But it has recently experienced a surge in popularity, thanks in part to great peptide publicity from influencers, podcasters, and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services. Thousands of Americans are taking it. And almost all o
