Colorado Governor Jared Polis is facing scrutiny after offering surprising praise for Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s nomination as U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services, despite previously criticizing his anti-vaccine stance as a threat to public health.
Polis, a Democrat, had long expressed concerns about RFK Jr.'s anti-vaccine activism, at one point ridiculing the idea that his policies could lead to the return of diseases like measles and polio, The Hill reported. Nonetheless, Polis supported Kennedy's bid to fight corporate control in the pharmaceutical and agricultural sectors.
