A new survey of the Associated Press-Norc Center for Public Affairs Research has revealed that only about 3 out of 10 American adults support the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. As secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services.
But the election of President Trump of Kennedy is popular with Republicans: about 6 out of 10 approved, compared to approximately 1 in ten Democrats.
According to Kennedy’s controversial position, the controversial position of health, including beliefs on the re -evaluation of children’s vaccine recommendations and the change in guidelines for fluorine in drinking water and the consumption of raw milk, are opposed to many. However, some of its other positions, such as reformulating processed foods, are widely popular.
Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic for a long time, has received bipartisan criticism of its controversial opinions on vaccines and health care.
During his confirmation audience on Wednesday, Kennedy faced harsh questions from the Democrats who made him grilled during his past statements about vaccines and abortion.
Prior to the hearing, Kennedy’s cousin Caroline Kennedy wrote a letter to the senators saying he has “dangerous” opinions about vaccines.
She accused him of vaccinating his own children as he discouraged others to do it. “Bobby has gone to represent, lie and deceive his way through life,” he wrote.
The AP-NORC survey suggests that many Americans would oppose the vaccine recommendations.
Around 4 out of ten North -Americans “strongly” or “a little” oppose Kennedy’s position on reconsideration of government recommendations on vaccines. About 3 out of 10 are supporters of this movement.
The poll says that Republicans are more likely than Democrats to support the re -evaluation of official recommendations for widely used vaccines, but this support is not overwhelming.
About 4 out of 10 Republicans support these proposals, compared to about 2 out of ten Democrats.
The survey at 1,147 respondents, taken from January 9 to 13, has a margin of error of more or less than 3.9 percentage points.
