In a statement that quickly went viral, Robert F Kennedy Jr declared that 'teenagers today don't have enough sperm', citing what he claims is a worrying trend among the younger generation. His comment sparked a whirlwind of reactions, turning into an unusual public health debate that has dominated social media.
The remarks came as the Trump administration announced a proposed federal rule to expand employer-provided fertility benefits, with RFK Jr, in his capacity as HHS Secretary, publicly thanking Trump for working to increase young men's sperm counts. The comment has drawn a sharp division of opinion, with some agreeing with his public health concerns while others have slammed him for an outlandish claim.
