Washington – The Trump administration has published its strategy to make America healthy again on Tuesday. The officials hope that chronic diseases and federal politics will reduce with their beliefs.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Secretary for Health and Human Services, said during a briefing about the strategy that the 128 “Recommendations are things that I have dreamed of all my life.”
Kennedy said he hoped to implement some of the changes before the end of the year, including the definition of what an ultra-processed food represents, the water quality standards for Forever Chemicals, which are known as PFAs and update changing infant standards.
The report also contains potentially controversial elements that treat access to vaccines, a topic that several republican senators Kennedy above leaves During a long hearing Last week.
The 20-page strategy follows the Maha Commission Publication of his first report In May, the four concerns – nutrition, physical activity, environmental factors and “over -medication” outlined.
The suggestions in the novel reporting obligation include the scope of topics that were largely directed to initiatives, which are likely to consider concerns with doctors and reputable medical organizations.
For example, the strategy requires US administration of food and medicinal products to “develop instructions on diagnostics and treatments for food allergies”, although doctors are already able to diagnose and treat these diseases.
The report also calls on the FDA to “improve regulatory processes for over -the -counter sunscreen that have fallen behind other countries”.
Vaccination plan come
The inner policy of the White House and HHS intend to design a separate plan, which deals with the vaccination schedule for children, vaccine disorders, vaccine sciences, “incorrectly oriented incentives” and “scientific and medical freedom”.
During the briefing, Kennedy stated that he could possibly try to revise the nightmaker’s event report, and claims that 99% of the vaccination injuries are not reported, as doctors are not compensated for this.
“We make the entire program new, so that vaccination injuries are reported; they are examined; that people who suffer do not refuse or marginalized or disparaged or become gas light,” said Kennedy. “You will be greeted and we will learn everything we can about you.”
The report contains no plans to reduce the operate of pesticide or to search for solutions to end mass shootings, although Kennedy and others at the event said these are problems that the administration will examine.
“The question of firearms is a complex question and it is not a simple question,” said Kennedy. “The violence is what we are worried about.”
Kennedy said that weapons have been there for a while and that they also exist in other countries that do not nearly the number of mass shootings than the United States before talking about psychiatric drugs, video games and social media.
“We look at this at NIH,” said Kennedy and referred to the National Institutes of Health. “We are now doing studies. We initiate studies to examine the correlation and the potential connection between over -medicine of our children and this violence.”
Kennedy asked a question about pesticides in Vince Haley, director of the domestic policy of the White House, the Agricultural Secretary Brooke Rollins and the administrator of the environmental protection authority Lee Zeldin.
Haley referred to a section in the newly published report entitled “Cumulative Exposition”, which says that USDA, EPA and NIH will operate novel approach methods to “improve methods for evaluating human health and environmental risks of chemical contaminants”.
Rollins said reporters that pesticides need study before approval and that they are necessary to ensure stable food supply.
“Is it a perfect process? There is probably no perfect process,” said Rollins. “But it is a strong process for which our farmers stand. And a harvest protection tool like pesticides is absolutely important for America in order not to compromise our food supply system at this time.”
