Moments after Kennedy’s confirmation was announced on Thursday, people on various social media platforms took shots at the notorious anti-vaxxer’s new gig managing the department in charge of public health.
Many people noted that Mitch McConnell, a polio survivor, was the only Republican senator to vote against Kennedy.
A couple of people reacted to the confirmation by cracking jokes about Kennedy being in charge of HHS.
And one person said the news of the anti-vaccine activist’s confirmation was a wake-up call to get their vaccinations done.
