How is the Wall Street Journal responding to RFK Jr.'s role as Health Secretary amid the measles outbreak?

The Wall Street Journal's editorial board, despite its conservative leaning, has expressed skepticism about RFK Jr.'s nomination as Health Secretary while addressing the current measles outbreak in the United States. They've made an unusual call stating that Kennedy needs to recognize he is no longer an activist outsider who needs to take provocative positions to gain attention. The Journal emphasizes that as the nation's health secretary, Kennedy has serious responsibilities at a time when children are being hospitalized with measles—a preventable disease. Their message suggests that effective public health leadership is urgently needed, and Kennedy should prioritize addressing the real health crisis rather than maintaining his previous outsider stance.
