Vero’s thoughts on the news:
The nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services raises substantial concerns, especially given his controversial views on vaccination, which have sparked much debate over public health policies. In the tech industry, where data and science guide decision-making processes, it’s crucial to have leadership that bases their policies on robust scientific evidence. RFK Jr.’s nomination may pose a challenge to the consistent application of evidence-based health policies, which are critical for the digital health solutions many app developers are creating to improve public health.
