Following Donald Trump's 2024 election victory, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has outlined plans for significant changes to key health agencies, including the FDA and CDC. In interviews, he expressed the need to eliminate certain departments, particularly those related to nutrition, claiming they fail to protect public health. Trump has indicated he may appoint Kennedy to a major health role, where Kennedy aims to tackle issues such as food safety and chronic diseases in children. He has suggested removing fluoride from drinking water, despite expert support for its dental health benefits. Kennedy, a prominent figure in the anti-vaccine movement, has also indicated a desire to reduce corporate influence in health agencies. His potential role has raised concerns among public health experts about the direction of national health policies.
