RFK Jr. vs. CDC: Shots Fired, Trust Retired
In a drama more tangled than a Zoom call with a million tabs open, 750+ federal health workers slammed HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. for 'contributing to harassment and violence' on the CDCâs Atlanta headquarters. They wrote a spicy letter demanding RFK Jr. stop spreading 'inaccurate health information' and to 'affirm CDC's non-partisan and scientific integrity.' Highlighting chaos like ousting vaccine board members and questioning measles vaccine safety, the workers said Kennedy's actions put 'lives at risk' and fueling #PublicHealthDrama in 2025. Kennedy remains radio silent as the emergency alert... still buffering.
