Bernie Sanders joined the increasing public invitations to Donald Trump’s Minister of Health, Robert F. Kennedy Junior, to resign, after the recent chaos throughout the American health agencies.
in For example Posted in the New York Times on Saturday, Senator Vermont Kennedy was accused of “exposing the health of the American people now and in the future,” adding: “It must be resigned.”
“Mr. Kennedy and the rest of the Trump administration tells us, over and over again, that they want to make America healthy again. This is a great slogan. I agree with it. The problem is that since President Trump and Mr. Kennedy entered the opposite,” Sanders wrote.
Sanders indicated the release of the White House of Susan Monarerez, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in addition to four senior officials of the Disease Control Center who resigned this week after Monarerez refused to serve as a rubber seal “for” Kennedy’s dangerous policies “.
“Despite the overwhelming opposition to the medical community, Minister Kennedy continued a long -term cruciate campaign against vaccines and his call to conspiracy theories that scientific experts have rejected repeatedly,” Sanders wrote.
“Against the group of overwhelming evidence within medicine and science, what are the opinions of Minister Kennedy? … He claimed ridiculously that” there is no safe and effective vaccine “… supports Minister Kennedy’s opinions? He – she.”
Sanders continued to add: “The truth is that Minister Kennedy has benefited from and building a profession to waste the lack of confidence in the vaccines. Now, as president [the Department of Health and Human Services] He uses his authority to launch a full war on science, on public health and the same truth. “
Referring to what he described as a “broken health care system”, Sanders said Kennedy’s repeated attacks against science and vaccines would make it difficult for Americans to obtain life saving vaccines.
“Indeed, the Trump administration has effectively made Coffeted vaccines from many younger adults and children, unless they are fighting through our broken health care system. This means more doctor visits, more bureaucracy and more people who pay higher costs of the pocket-if they can get a vaccine at all.”
Senator warned that the next goal for Kennedy may be the childhood immunization schedule, which includes a list of recommended vaccines for children to protect them from diseases including measles, chickenpox and polio.
Sanders said: “The risk here is that the diseases that have already been eliminated due to safe and effective vaccines will appear and cause great harm,” Sanders said.

In recent days, the Trump administration has faced a rare decline from the two parties after the shooting of Monarerez, which came amid sharp budget discounts on the work of the Center for Disease Control in addition to increasing fears of political intervention.
Meanwhile, Kennedy continued to submit questionable medical and health claims – they were completed in response to both experts and legislators.
Since assuming the leadership of the Ministry of Health, Kennedy-a vaccine lawyer who has long been launched-has launched the health agency workers and conspiracy theories. Last week, more than 750 current and former employees in US Health Agencies have signed a letter in which they criticized Kennedy as a “existential health threat.”
The workers of the health agency continued to accuse the Minister of Health of being “complicit in dismantling the public health infrastructure in America and endangering the health of the nation by spreading frequently inaccurate health information.”
The message comes after a fatal shooting at the headquarters of the Disease Control Center in Atlanta earlier this month, when a 30 -year -old gunman fired more than 180 rounds of buildings, killing a police officer before he died from a self -wound. The shooter was struggling with mental health issues and was affected by the wrong information that led him to believe that the Covid-19 vaccine was ill, according to the armed father.
