US President-elect Donald Trump has appointed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health Secretary. At a gala event at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida on Thursday evening, President-elect Trump said RFK Jr. would ‘make America healthy again’ as head of the country’s top heath agency. His nomination of RFK Jr., who is well-known for both his environmental activism and his vaccine skepticism, is just the latest in a string of controversial choices for government agencies.
