In recent news, the New York Times has uncovered information that White House candidate Robert Kennedy Jr is facing serious health issues due to a parasite in his brain. The parasite has caused him to experience “obvious cognitive problems” as well as long-term and short-term memory loss. Kennedy Jr is an independent candidate in the upcoming November presidential election, competing against Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
The septuagenarian candidate made a revelation during a 2012 divorce case deposition that he had been diagnosed with a parasite in his brain, which had eaten away part of it before passing away. This incident occurred over ten years ago after a trip to Africa, South America or Asia. Despite this health scare, a spokesperson for Kennedy Jr has assured that he is now in very good physical and mental health.
Furthermore, Kennedy Jr also suffered from mercury poisoning at one point, which can cause neurological problems. These revelations come amidst the ongoing presidential election campaign, with Kennedy Jr now facing scrutiny over his health compared to his older opponents, Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Despite these challenges, Kennedy Jr remains determined to continue his campaign for the presidency.
