Robert F Kennedy Jr, appointed US health secretary despite anti-vaccine activism, sparked outrage with his comment "I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats" on Theo Von's podcast on February 12.
The President of Protect Our Care issued a one-word statement to the US health and human services secretary: 'Resign', amid mounting pressure for Kennedy to step down from his post.
Kennedy's remarks have prompted a prominent healthcare advocacy group to urge his resignation, citing his irresponsible comments on Covid risks and his unfitness to lead the federal health department, as reported by The Guardian US.
