YouTube Description
as posted by the channelSen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, chair of the Senate Finance Committee, gave closing remarks during a hearing about President Donald Trump's health agenda featuring HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
Kennedy appeared before the committee a day after more than 20 medical societies and organizations called for his resignation. They cited “repeated efforts to undermine science and public health,” most recently the firing of CDC Director Susan Monarez over vaccine science and the resulting resignations of other leaders at the organization.
During his tenure, the health secretary and former anti-vaccine advocate has narrowed long-standing U.S. vaccine recommendations. He’s also replaced a key panel of medical experts with his hand-picked candidates ahead of the start of the respiratory virus season in the United States.
