Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Enters 2024 Presidential Race as Anti-Vaccine Activist

Robert F Kennedy Jr, an anti-vaccine activist and nephew of President John F Kennedy, has filed a statement of candidacy to challenge President Joe Biden for the Democratic nomination in the 2024 US presidential election. Kennedy's anti-vaccine charity, Children's Health Defense, has been accused of spreading misleading and dangerous information, including false claims targeting groups more prone to vaccine distrust, potentially resulting in deaths during the pandemic. Kennedy has also promoted conspiracy theories about Covid-19 and the 2020 US presidential election, linking him with anti-democratic figures and groups.
