Jack Schlossberg Urges Cheryl Hines to Apologize for Measles Death in Texas

Jack Schlossberg, grandson of John F. Kennedy, publicly urged Cheryl Hines, wife of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to apologize to the family of a child who died from measles in Texas amid an ongoing outbreak. In a light-hearted Instagram video, Schlossberg asked Hines to convey her regrets, highlighting the vaccine's role in preventing such cases. Kennedy Jr., who serves as Secretary of Health and Human Services, had initially downplayed the outbreak, describing it as 'not unusual,' but later expressed concern and recommended the measles vaccine after the child's death was reported. Schlossberg criticized his uncle's response, emphasizing the importance of vaccinations in preventing measles. This incident has sparked discussions around vaccine hesitancy and public health responsibilities within the Kennedy family. Hines has not publicly responded to Schlossberg's request.
