Measles outbreak to be focus of new RFK Jr. interview with Fox News’ Dr. Marc. Siegel
Dr. Marc Siegel, clinical professor of medicine at NYU Langone Health and Fox News senior medical analyst, will interview Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Tuesday morning on the Fox News Channel.
RFK, who was sworn in as secretary of Health and Human Services on Feb. 13, leads the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) campaign.
The main focus of the Tuesday interview will be the current measles outbreak, which has caused more than 160 cases in the U.S. — a vast majority of those in Texas — and one death.

Siegel will also ask about Make America Healthy Again (MAHA), RFK’s campaign to improve health and wellness by removing toxins, reforming nutrition and fighting the chronic disease epidemic.
“I want to talk about MAHA in a practical way,” Siegel said. “We all agree with it, but the question is how he is going to go about it.”
