Guests invited to a holiday party at the home of the leading anti-vaxxer Robert F Kennedy Jr were urged to be vaccinated or tested for Covid-19 because, Kennedy said, he is “not always the boss at my own house”.
Speaking to Politico, which reported the request before the party in California last week, Kennedy said his wife, the actor Cheryl Hines, was behind it.
He also said no effort was made to check if guests had been vaccinated or recently tested.
Amid widespread criticism, Doug Heye, a Republican operative, wrote: “The ol’ blame-the-wife-for-wanting-people-to-be-safe-when-you’re-an-anti-vaxxer move. Classy.”
Hines did not comment.
Kennedy, 67, is a nephew of President John F Kennedy and the second son of Robert F Kennedy, the US attorney general, New York senator and candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination who was assassinated in 1968.
The younger Kennedy has campaigned on environmental issues but is also a leading vaccines conspiracy theorist and activist against shots including those approved to combat Covid-19, which has killed more than 805,000 in the US and more than 5.3 million worldwide.
Earlier this year, Kennedy was removed from Instagram, for sharing misinformation about Covid-19. His Facebook page remains active, as does his Twitter account.
Last month, Kennedy released a book in which he attacks targets including Joe Biden’s chief medical adviser. Its title, The Real Anthony Fauci: Bill Gates, Big Pharma, and the Global War on Democracy and Public Health, has been no obstacle to bestseller status on Amazon.
Earlier this week, the Associated Press reported that Kennedy’s anti-vaccination non-profit, Children’s Health Defense, more than doubled revenue in the first year of the pandemic, reporting $6.8m raised.
Earlier this month, Kennedy told Gawker CHD “got funding from independent funders, from people whose children have been injured by medications, from people who want medical freedom”.
Questioned about his decision to title a section of his book Final Solution: Vaccines or Bust, Kennedy said: “I don’t think the vaccines have anything to do with eradicating the Jews.”
According to the AP, CHD has recently expanded the reach of its newsletter, launched an internet TV channel, started a movie studio, opened new US branches and established outposts in Canada, Europe and Australia.
The AP also said CHD had become a leading “alternative and natural medicine site”, with millions of users, in part by targeting groups that may be more prone to distrust vaccines, including mothers and African Americans.
“With the pandemic, [Kennedy has] been turbocharged,” Dr David Gorski, a cancer surgeon at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit and a critic of the anti-vaccine movement, told the AP.
Dr Richard Allen Williams, a cardiologist and founder of the Minority Health Institute, said Kennedy was leading “a propaganda movement” and “absolutely a racist operation” particularly dangerous to Black Americans.
“He’s really the ringleader of the misinformation campaign,” Williams said.
Kennedy did not comment.
His sister, the human rights campaigner Kerry Kennedy, said: “Failure to take vaccines puts people’s lives at risk. It not only impacts the person who refuses the jab but imperils the community at large.”
She also said: “I love Bobby. I think he’s just completely wrong on this issue and very dangerous.”

Just tested positive. First Christmas I’m ever missing with my family. I feel pretty crappy but honestly thought it was a really bad sinus infection until earlier I just could not stop shivering and I started getting wild muscle aches. I’ve been vaxxed and boostered but this still ain’t a fun time
Stay up breh. This variant hitting everyone regardless of vaccination. Luckily it’s all mild symptoms.

Are you accounting for all the people who got COVID-19 and never stepped foot in a hospital dying at home?
I am thankful for all that. I work as an electrician and have been working all throughout this pandemic without getting sick. Knew it was a matter of time, but omicron got me quick fast. They weren’t lying when they was talking about how much more spreadable or whatever this one is. Lucky I ain’t got hit by the Delta variant, that’s for sure. Still just feels like fluid constantly in my lungs coughing out. This shyt just the mild version. I don’t even wanna imagine some of the pain and suffering folks been going thru before the vax

Feel like I got through aches and stuff. Now I’m dealing with extreme exhaustion. I can’t stand up for long before I get weak as Fukk. Anyone know ways of dealing with this?
Rest and keep your fluids up. This shyt only get better with time
When did you have Covid? When did you first get your symptoms? Unless you have tons of family obligations, I’d suggest spending the majority of the day tomorrow sitting your ass down and resting.
