Independent Candidate RFK Jr. Discloses Recovery from Brain Parasite

May 8, 2024, 11:16 PM

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., an independent U.S. presidential candidate, has disclosed that he once had a parasitic worm in his brain, which he believes was contracted during a trip to South Asia. This revelation came after doctors initially suspected a brain tumor due to severe memory loss and mental fogginess Kennedy experienced in 2010. However, further medical evaluation revealed the presence of a dead worm that had eaten part of his brain before dying. Kennedy, who has positioned himself as a healthier alternative to other presidential candidates, confirmed in a 2012 deposition that this unusual medical condition has been resolved and will not impact his ability to serve if elected. He also mentioned that these health issues had been previously undisclosed.
