  The HHS Secretary holds controversial views on many topics, including vaccines. But some physicians welcome his focus on nutrition and chronic disease, saying it's long overdue even if they disagree with his policies.

The article from Medscape discusses the controversy surrounding Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s views on chronic Lyme disease and his proposed treatments, which include long-term antibiotic use and other unconventional therapies. Experts, including Dr. Paul Auwaerter and Dr. Henry "Chip" Chambers, express concerns over Kennedy's advocacy for treatments that lack scientific backing and could be harmful, such as the use of disulfiram and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. They emphasize that chronic Lyme disease, as described by Kennedy, is not supported by current medical evidence, and that his recommendations could lead patients away from effective treatments. The article also touches on Kennedy's personal connection to the issue, as his wife, actress Cheryl Hines, has been diagnosed with Lyme disease, influencing his strong stance on the topic.
