Washington (AP) – A report published on Thursday about the American health and wellness parts of American health and wellness reflects some of the most controversial views of vaccines, food supply, pesticides and prescription drugs by health secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
The excited report “Make America Healthy” requires an increased examination of the vaccination plan in childhood, a review of the pesticides sprayed on American plants and a description of the children of the nation as too transmitted and malnourished.
While there is not the power of a law or an official policy, the 69-page report will be used in the next 100 days so that the Maha Commission will design a plan that can be implemented by President Donald Trump during the rest of the term, Kennedy said in a call with reporters. He refused to give details about who wrote the report.
“We will save lives by addressing this epidemic head to the chronic illness, we will save a lot more money in the long run – and even at short notice,” said Kennedy.
The HHS report checks the vaccines without this being justified
In the report, an increased examination of the vaccines in childhood – which was attributed to the savings of millions of people before fatal diseases – is outstanding in the report. It asks questions about the need for school mandates, in which children for admission and suggestions that vaccines, more clinical studies should be subjected to, are vaccinated with placebos.
Kennedy, a long -time vaccine critic who previously headed a non -profit organization, has raised the wrong claims about the shots, continued to raise doubts about the safety of vaccinations, even if a measles outbreak has received more than 1,000 Americans. This week, Kennedy’s Ministry of Health restricted access to Covid-19 shots.
The report does not provide evidence that the schedule for children in childhood, which includes shots for measles, polio and chickenpox, is responsible for increasing obesity, diabetes or autism rates, said Amesh Adalja, a doctor for infectious diseases at John’s Hopkins University.
“It is not as if they are making any kind of causal connection,” said Adalja and added that Kennedy “tries to devalue vaccines in the heads of the Americans.”
The “Maha” movement divides controversy about agricultural chemicals
Other controversial parts of the report are factions in the Maha Commission of the Trump government, even if it tried to appease opposing forces within the politically diverse coalition that Trump and Kennedy have funded.
The report enables dozens of information on nutritional guidelines and standards in Europe, but the head of the environmental protection authority, Lee Zeldin, promised that it would not result in stricter regulations. Instead, he described a system in which companies are encouraged to meet a novel “gold standard science”.
“This cannot be done by a European mandate system that classifies growth,” said Zeldin in a call with reporters.
Despite numerous studies and statements during the entire Maha report, which pronounce concerns about American food products, Trump -Kabinetts officials passed during the call on Thursday that the nation’s food supply is secure.
The report mentions that glyphosate, a frequently used chemical that is sprayed on plants, can cause sedate health problems, including cancer.
The farmers who, together with Republican legislators, pursued the Trump government before the report was released, quickly criticized the report of the report on the chemicals.
“Make America Healthy Net’s report is more filled with fear -based than scientific information about pesticides,” said the National Corn Growers Association in a statement.
But Kennedy’s Maha supporters were also disappointed and said that the report did not go far enough when it was used for chemicals in plants. “If the Trump White House and the Republicans do not take any pesticides and glyphosate connections to the questions of human health seriously, it will cost them the Maha vote in the meantime,” said Dave Murphy, a former donation campaign by Kennedy, which was directed against the problem that was dealt with in the report.
The agricultural secretary Brooke Rollins recognized that the officials of Trump-Trump-Trump officers go on foot to keep farmers, many of whom are content in Republican countries, and at the same time work to satisfy Kennedy’s versatile and health-conscious supporters.
“Are we all agreed on everything? Of course not,” said Rollins. “But the place we have landed is what we all agree with is that this is not a binary choice between industry, agriculture and health.”
Ultra -proed foods were also held responsible for unhealthy Americans
However, the report is more powerful against ultra-proofed food-industrial products with high refined grains, sugar, saturated fats and additives such as artificial dyes, which now make up two thirds of the diet for US teenagers and children. Such products were associated with a variety of indigent health results, even though they document how they cause these problems, were notoriously arduous and time -consuming.
Maha Commission’s report “is a pretty precise representation of the nutritional crisis for our country,” said Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, expert in nutrition and politics at Tufts University.
The report not only focuses on ultraprocedic food, but also on how too little fruit, vegetables, legumes, nuts, seeds and fish are present in US diets. But the report leaves excess salt, which also causes damage to petite children.
The Maha report is calling for the national health institutes to carry out extensive, nationwide studies on ultra -sized food, even if the White House has requested $ 18 billion from the agency’s budget. The Congress for Kennedy’s Maha initiative has been requested for an additional 500 million US dollars.
The report raises concerns about the environmental and chemical research results financed by companies and industry that are distorted.
The Maha Commission’s demand for neutral research, however, comes, however, since a comprehensive budget and the employees who were promoted by the Trump Department of Government Efficiency have led to 20,000 jobs in the state’s Ministry of Health and billions of dollars for research studies. The Trump administration also disconnected the program to pursue the public health of Environmental Health in the cuts of health programs.
The report also raises concerns about the lack of physical activity in children and their prescription drug exploit, including antibiotics and medication for the treatment of attention deficit disorders.
Trump will be expected to talk about the report in the White House on Thursday afternoon.
