Johns Hopkins School of Medicine professor Dr. Marty Makary joins ‘Fox News Sunday’ to break down Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s plan to uproot the U.S.’ health policies.
"I think if we listen to what he's talking about, he's very clear about what he wants to do. Number one, he wants to address corruption in health care and corruption in our government health agencies. A lot of people don't like that message and they're threatened by it."

"Number two, he wants to get back to evidence-based research and he wants to fund research that's gonna answer the big questions of our day. And number three, he wants to address the child chronic disease epidemic. A lot of people are concerned. Food supply is poisoned and kids are growing up in a toxic milieu and we're drugging kids at scale as the American Academy of Pediatrics is pushing those Ozempic on six-year-olds."

"He is talking about health and chronic diseases. It shouldn't be a political message. And I think you're seeing a lot of people unite around that message. Parents, it was effective on the campaign. And I think they're delivering on that now. I would say people should not dissect what he said 30 years ago and listen to what he's saying now."

"He's saying very clearly he's not anti-vax. He's not gonna remove or take away anyone's vaccines. And what is scary and dangerous to health is not R.F.K. Jr. It's what people just witnessed. It's the food pyramid lie that's been out there for 60 years. It's the medical establishment that lied to us about opioids for 20 years saying it was not addictive. It was the vaccine mandates, ignoring natural immunity, cloth mask on toddlers."

"That's what's driving a lot of the distrust of the medical establishment. It's not RFK Jr. If you look at the path that we are on as a country, it's not a good path. We're watching so many of these crises go up. Early onset Alzheimer's has tripled. cancer in young people under age 50 has gone up by 79 percent. We're looking at half of our nation's children are sick."

"We're looking at 40 percent of our nation's children now with a mental health diagnosis. One in five kids is on a medication. So what he is really focused on is this concept that we can't keep drugging our nation's children going down this path. That's what's dangerous. I think he wants to bring in a lot of scientists from highly respected institutions and let them do good work."

"He is really the quintessential environmental health attorney of our era, and that may be the quintessential issue of our era if we look at our status in terms of health. The central issue in healthcare is the health of the population. It's not health insurance and how we finance the broken healthcare system."

"It's how we fix it. And so for the first time ever, we're now seeing a focus on addressing the health of our nation's children and the chronic disease epidemic. And that's exciting a lot of people."
