True, but, the measurable consequences of infections disease have been massively mitigated by vaccines. I am a massive proponent of reform at the FDA, etc. as well as addressing the causes of chronic disease & obesity, but I think you are far too inclined to place trust in RFK in prospect of tackling these issues. You seem to unscrupulously create excuses for him and place an inordinate amount of trust in a man who has consistently exhibited twisted views and dishonestly concerning well established medicine (and, who, do not forget, is also a politician, as against the grain as he is from the mainstream).
