RFK Jr. Speaks About Past Health Incidents Including Brain Parasite

RFK Jr. Speaks About , Past Health Incidents , Including Brain Parasite.

CNN reports that Robert F.

Kennedy Jr. offered his first public explanation of a medical abnormality he experienced in 2010, which he said was the result of a parasite that entered his brain and died.

.

While speaking on the podcast 'Pushing the Limits with Brian Shapiro,' Kennedy said the experience involved "brain fog" and "having trouble with word retrieval and short-term memory.".

According to the Independent presidential candidate, doctors initially told him they thought he had a tumor in his brain.

.

A second docotor revealed that "this is almost certainly a parasite that got into your brain … it’s a parasite that’s very common in India where I had done a lot of environmental work.”.

Stefanie Spear, a spokesperson for Kennedy’s campaign, said he had “traveled extensively in Africa, South America and Asia” while working as an environmental advocate.

When asked how the condition could impact his presidential bid, Spear said, “The issue was resolved more than 10 years ago and he is in robust physical and mental health.

Questioning Mr. Kennedy’s health is a hilarious suggestion, given his competition.".

In the same podcast, Kennedy detailed another experience he had with mercury poisoning, which he said occurred near the same time as the incident with the parisitic worm.

Kennedy said tests revealed "sky high" levels of mercury in he blood, forcing him to undergo chelation therapy to have the metals removed from his body.

At the same time, I was having my mercury tested, and I was getting all kinds of tests, and my mercury test came back sky high.

So, ten times what, you know, the EPA levels were for blood mercury, I think it was.

They were over ten times what– what anybody considered safe.

And I had that chelated out and all of that brain fog went away, Robert Kennedy Jr., via CNN.

CNN reports that Kennedy insisted that he has since made a full recovery from both health scares

Argentina Protests: Massive protests over education cuts under new President Milei | Oneindia

According to protest organisers, hundreds of thousands of Argentines flooded the streets to express their outrage over cuts to higher public education under the newly elected President Javier Milei. Students, professors, parents, and alumni from the country's 57 state-run universities rallied together on Tuesday, uniting in defence of free public university education amidst the economic turmoil plaguing South America. Joined by labour unions, opposition parties, and private universities, the demonstrations spread from Buenos Aires to major cities like Cordoba, marking one of the largest protests against the austerity measures implemented since Milei assumed office in December. While police estimated around 100,000 participants in the capital alone, organisers claimed the number soared closer to half-a-million, effectively paralysing the city centre for hours. #ArgentinaProtests #EducationCuts #PresidentMilei #ArgentinaEducation #Protests #HigherEducation #PublicEducation #BudgetCuts #EducationReform #StudentProtests ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.194~GR.123~

EPA Announces First-Ever Regulations for PFAS in Drinking Water [Video]

EPA Announces First-Ever Regulations for PFAS in Drinking Water

EPA Announces First-Ever Regulations , for PFAS in Drinking Water. On April 10, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced that it is issuing a country-wide regulation to limit the amount of "forever chemicals" in drinking water, CBS News reports. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are commonly found in the air, water and soil. According to the EPA, there is no amount of exposure to PFAS that is considered safe. They can be found in everything from nonstick cookware to cleaning and personal care products. But there's no doubt that many of these chemicals can be harmful to our health and our environment, EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan, via statement. Exposure to PFAS has been linked to reproductive problems, developmental delays, low birth weight, immune system issues, high cholesterol, cardiovascular issues and some cancers, CBS News reports. . Public water utilities will now be required to "test for six different types of PFAS chemicals" in drinking water, CBS News reports. The agency estimates that the new requirement will lower exposure to PFAS for about 100 million people. . Drinking water contaminated with PFAS has plagued communities across this country for too long, EPA Administrator Michael S. Regan, via statement. $1 billion will be made available to help states and territories comply with the new standards. Those funds are part of a $9 billion investment generated by the 2021 Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. President Biden believes that everyone deserves access to clean, safe drinking water, and he is delivering on that promise, Brenda Mallory, Chair of the White House Council on Environmental Quality, via statement

EPA Takes Aim at US Chemical Emissions That Are Likely Carcinogens

EPA Takes Aim at, US Chemical Emissions, That Are Likely Carcinogens. 'The Independent' reports that over 200 chemical plants in the United States will be required to reduce toxic emissions under a new rule. . The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released the new rule regarding toxic emissions likely to cause cancer on April 9. The rule is meant to deliver critical health protections for communities faced with industrial pollution from dangerous chemicals, such as chloroprene and ethyl oxide. The rule will significantly reduce emissions from the Denka Performance Elastomer facility in LaPlace, Louisiana. The facility is the largest producer of chloroprene emissions in the U.S., according to EPA Administrator Michael Regan. Every community in this country deserves to breathe clean air. That’s why I took the Journey to Justice tour to communities like St. John the Baptist Parish, where residents have borne the brunt of toxic air for far too long, Michael Regan, EPA Administrator, via 'The Independent'. We promised to listen to folks that are suffering from pollution and act to protect them. Today we deliver on that promise with strong final standards to slash pollution, reduce cancer risk and ensure cleaner air for nearby communities, Michael Regan, EPA Administrator, via 'The Independent'. According to officials, the changes are meant to reduce ethylene oxide and chloroprene emissions in the U.S. by nearly 80%. 'The Independent' reports that the rule updates several regulations on chemical plant emissions that have not been altered in nearly 20 years. The EPA said that the new rule will reduce a total of over 6,200 tons of toxic air pollutants annually in an effort to address health risks in neighboring communities
