Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on Capitol Hill for twohearingson Wednesday and embarrassed leftist Senator Raphael Warnock (D-GA) when he tried to outsmart him on health matters.
As The Gateway Pundit previouslyreported, RFK Jr. first testified before the Senate Finance Committee on his agency’s budget and the deals that the Trump Administration struck with drug companies to lower prices.
Late in the hearing, Warnock decided to test RFK Jr.’s knowledge ofrabies, one of the most deadly diseases on the planet.
Warnock started off by trying to ‘educate’ the HHS Secretary on rabies, which can be spread by numerous animals to humans, including raccoons, foxes, and skunks.
Of course, RFK Jr. already knew this information.
Sen. Warnock: Secretary Kennedy, do you know what rabies is?
Sen. Warnock: So, people contract rabies, as we know, through bites from infected animals, like skunks, foxes… like raccoons.pic.twitter.com/Sb7IEr35qv

Then, Warnock decided to attack RFK Jr. for making budget cuts to the ‘rabies office.’ He said that only one person is handling issues concerning the disease at the CDC rabies division in Atlanta, Georgia.
But what the Georgia senator neglected to say was that rabies cases in humans are EXTREMELY rare, with only a couple of cases per year on average. Thus, this seems like a job one person can handle.
