According to NPR, the measles outbreak in West Texas has led to significant public health concerns, with health officials urging vaccinations to curb the spread. The New York Times detailed how Kennedy's comments on the outbreak have drawn criticism from public health experts who argue that his stance may contribute to vaccine hesitancy.
