After more than 40 years in the public health arena, it might surprise some of my colleagues to know I [Robert Redfield] think President Trump chose the right man for the job: Robert Kennedy, Jr.”
We know chronic disease is more than 75 percent of the country’s $4 trillion annual health care expenditure. Unfortunately, we have become a sick nation.
More than 40 percent of school-aged children and adolescents have at least one chronic health condition.
Obesity in American children has increased dramatically since John F. Kennedy’s presidency, from around 4 percent in the 1960s to almost 20 percent in 2024.
Kennedy is right: All three of the principal health agencies suffer from agency capture.
A large portion of the FDA’s budget is provided by pharmaceutical companies. NIH is cozy with biomedical and pharmaceutical companies, and its scientists are allowed to collect royalties on drugs NIH licenses to pharma.”
President Trump has pledged, if elected, to establish a panel of top experts working with Kennedy to investigate what is causing the decades-long increase in chronic health problems and childhood diseases.”
Kennedy pledged that ‘within two years, we will watch the chronic disease burden lift dramatically’ if he’s given the tools he needs to make a change. I believe him. And I think President Trump will empower him. I support their noble effort to heal our children.
The exorbitant cost of the failing health of our kids, the needless suffering and death, can be ended by a Kennedy Commission on Childhood Chronic Disease.
