Trump Hosts Event After MAHA Commission Releases Report on Childhood Diseases
- On May 22, 2025, President Trump and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services, released a report addressing childhood diseases.
- The report was released amid rising worries about a national health crisis and urges closer examination of vaccines administered to children as well as the pesticides applied to crops.
- The report highlights four main factors contributing to chronic illnesses in children: unhealthy eating habits with a focus on heavily processed foods, exposure to a buildup of environmental toxins, insufficient exercise, and ongoing stressors such as excessive screen time and the frequent use of prescribed medications.
- The report states glyphosate, a widely used weed-control chemical, may cause cancer, which has caused concern among farmers who consider it essential; however, it holds no official policy or legal force.
- The Trump administration intends to use the report as a basis for formulating a strategy to tackle the concerns raised throughout the rest of the president's time in office, despite resistance from farmers and some Republicans.
