RFK Jr health panel appointees allowed to keep drug stocks

Original: More & more # corruption . Everywhere you look. Every nook & cranny. Full on # kleptocracy 4 # RFKJr Appointees to Power

New members appointed by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to the influential US Preventive Services Task Force have been granted waivers allowing them to keep their pharmaceutical stock holdings while serving. Critics are calling the decision a striking example of corruption, arguing that officials shaping national health screening recommendations should not hold financial stakes in drug companies, and some describe the administration's approach as kleptocracy.

Why now: People are reacting to reports that health panel members received conflict-of-interest waivers to retain drug industry investments.
