Caroline Kennedy, the U.S. Ambassador to Australia and daughter of former President John F. Kennedy, has sharply criticized her cousin Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s controversial views on vaccines, calling them "dangerous" and contrary to the stance of the Kennedy family and most Americans.
"Our family is united in terms of our support for the public health sector and infrastructure and [has] greatest admiration for the medical profession in our country, and Bobby Kennedy has got a different set of views," Kennedy said at the National Press Club in Canberra, Australia. "I grew up with him, so I've known all this for a long time. Others are just getting to know him."
