Kennedy’s battles with the medical establishment

This month’s cover story in The Atlantic provides a revealing look at Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s robust effort to undermine and even overthrow whatever is left of the American medical consensus. The story comes from a series of interviews about Kennedy's life, his views and his many, many controversies, even as the staff of the U.S. secretary of Health and Human Services warned him against it.
