In a recent budget hearing, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), told the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, “We’re about to launch one of the biggest advertising campaigns in HHS history to encourage Americans to use wearables.”

Kennedy described wearables as “a key to the MAHA agenda” and said, “My vision is that every American is wearing a wearable within four years.”

As noted by Robert McGreevy in a Daily Caller article for which I was asked to provide comments, titled “Idea Proposed By RFK Has Some In MAHA Scratching Their Heads,” Kennedy’s remarks have “rankled medical freedom and privacy advocates”.

Catherine Austin Fitts, a former Housing and Urban Development (HUD) official under the George H.W. Bush administration, told the Daily Caller, “If RFK is promoting this it is because those are his political orders. He knows better.”
