RFK Jr. rejects cornerstone of health science: Germ theory

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s notorious claim of a "brain worm" infecting him has become a recurring theme in discussions about his anti-vaccine rhetoric and cognitive impairments. While it's possible that leftover parasites could affect brain function, there’s no evidence linking them to his specific health struggles or his current role as Health Secretary. His mental state and beliefs, however, are deeply intertwined with conspiracy theories challenging foundational scientific principles like germ theory. These ideas have spiraled into chaos at public health agencies, leading to severe cuts in critical services while the nation’s health continues to hang in the balance.
