Investors in pharmaceutical companies are selling off stock after
Donald Trump nominated the anti-vaccine activist Robert F Kennedy Jr
to lead the US Department of Health and Human Services.

RFK Jr has embraced numerous health-related conspiracy theories, and
is one of the most persistent and influential vaccine deniers in the
US.

Trump's announcement sent shares in some of the world's biggest
pharmaceutical companies - including Moderna, AstraZeneca and GSK -
falling on Friday morning.

Wiki - Kennedy has described his position as advocating for medical
freedom and raising concerns about government overreach in public
health matters, though public health experts and fact checkers have
widely criticized this framing.

He's a lawyer.....medicine is not perfect, but its community are
acting in good faith.
