The video shows U.S. Secretary of Health Robert F. Kennedy Jr. emerging from a tanning salon at the Palm Beach Tan chain, surrounded by his security team.
For many Internet users, the scene illustrates a profound irony: seeing a senior public health official frequenting an establishment associated with the risks associated with UV exposure raises questions about the consistency of his image and health messages.
Others point out that RFK Jr. questions the safety of vaccines, while seeming to regard artificial rays as safe, even though studies have clearly established a link between indoor tanning and an increased risk of skin cancer, particularly melanoma.
There’s no doubt that the US Health Secretary’s contradictory messages, often criticized for their inconsistency and dubious theories, have fueled controversy since his appointment by Donald Trump.
