Another family controversy for RFK Jr

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been the talk of the town recently.

Another controversy splashed the septuagenarian, when he published a photo of himself and his grandchildren swimming in Washington’s Rock Creek.

The problem?

Their swim was extremely risky, as the stream in question is contaminated with multiple bacteria, including E. coli.

For ages, the National Park Service (NPS) has been warning the DC population of this very high bacterial risk and RFK Jr. exposed his grandchildren. In fact, these restrictions/warnings have been in place for over 50 years, no less.

There’s even talk of widespread fecal contamination in the vicinity…

“Robert F. Kennedy Jr. submerges in creek with high bacteria levels, including E. coli”

Or to put it another way, “Secretary of Health and Human Services swims in sh*t.”https://t.co/RKaa4ZYFwE

The symptoms of E. coli should be taken seriously, as they include nausea, fever, headaches, vomiting, severe stomach cramps and watery and/or bloody diarrhoea.
