Speaking during a townhall style interview Tuesday, presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr slammed public heath agencies for going along with the government in implementing mass lockdowns during the COVID pandemic.

RFK Jr told the crowd that the actions were completely antithetical to the established course of action that should be taken during such an event.

"What they were doing violated all of the orthodoxy," Kennedy noted, adding "We've had the WHO, CDC, the DHS, and all the three-letter agencies have thought about pandemics for a hundred years. And they've worked on very, very carefully on pandemic preparedness protocols. And all of those protocols said you never lock down a population."
