"He inspected the kitchen of a Toledo daycare center, where hundreds of the city’s tiniest residents learn and play through the federally funded Head Start program. Under the careful watch of a surgeon, and with the machine disconnected, Kennedy briefly tested the teaching console of the renowned Cleveland Clinic’s robotic hands with a live patient splayed open for heart surgery in the room. And he munched on pesticide-free squash blossoms from a 400-acre farm."

I know I definitely want an unqualified visitor in the room who has bragged about his past snorting coke off toilet seats.
To say nothing of his brain-worm status.

There are also "MAHA" anti-vax doctors.
Lots of sociopaths get into Medical fields because they can make a lot of money and prestige, and still get their feeling of power of life and death - over people who won't fight back.

Kennedy, who still attends daily Alcoholics Anonymous meetings to cope with a heroin addiction that gripped him for 14 years, said he hopes to replicate the recovery center’s model nationwide, describing it as an “essential role of government to make sure those services are there.”
