A majority of voters doubt the reliability of medical information shared by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., according to a new Quinnipiac University poll.
Fifty-seven percent of respondents said they are “not so confident” or “not confident at all” in Kennedy’s medical guidance. Seventeen percent reported being “very confident,” while 22 percent said they are “somewhat confident.” Another 5 percent were unsure or did not answer.
Kennedy, a longtime vaccine skeptic, has drawn criticism for advising against giving multiple vaccines to newborns and warning pregnant women about Tylenol use. His views have raised concern among Republican senators as Donald Trump continues to back him despite pushback from the medical community.
The poll also measured Kennedy’s approval rating, finding that 33 percent of respondents approve of his performance at HHS, compared with 54 percent who disapprove.
Conducted Sept. 18–21 among 1,276 registered voters, the survey carries a margin of error of 3.3 percentage points.
