(Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) — In a sit down interview, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. told Theo Von “I’m not scared of a germ. I used to snort cocaine off of toilet seats.” In response, 314 Action President Shaughnessy Naughton released the following statement:
“But…RFK Jr. doesn’t believe in germ theory?”
What is Germ Theory?
Germ theory is the concept that links specific germs to diseases—it’s the foundation of modern medicine. In his book, The Real Anthony Fauci, RFK Jr. rejects the widespread reliance on germ theory. According to past public statements and writings, RFK Jr. has suggested that he prefers a more outdated approach known as “miasma theory” or “terrain theory,” which primarily places the blame on nutritional and environmental factors.
