Kennedy says he’s visiting with parents of Texas girl who died from measles
Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. confirmed Sunday that he is in West Texas today to "comfort" the family of an unvaccinated girl who died of measles.
On Sunday, the Texas Department of State Health Services said a second child had died from measles.
Kennedy said he "developed bonds with and deep affection for other members of this community" when he got to know the family of the first child who died from measles in February. That girl was also unvaccinated.
"My intention was to come down here quietly to console the families and to be with the community in their moment of grief," Kennedy said.
Kennedy also said he was visiting to learn how to better support public health officials on the ground, and said "the most effective way to prevent the spread of measles is the MMR vaccine."

Bondi: Trump will ‘probably’ leave after second term
Attorney General Pam Bondi said Sunday she expects Trump will "probably" leave the presidency following his second term -- even as she left the door slightly open toward him serving another four years in what she described as a "heavy lift" to amend the U.S. Constitution.
"President Trump has served one full term. He's on his second full term. He's a very smart man and -- we, I wish we could have him for 20 years as our president, but I think he's going to be finished probably after this term," Bondi said in an interview on “Fox News Sunday.”
"Probably?" host Shannon Bream asked.
"Well, the Constitution -- we'd have to look at the Constitution," Bondi replied. "It would be a heavy lift."
"And whether you get two thirds of the Senate and House to go along with you -- but is the concession that that's really the only way to do it?" Bream said.
"It'd be a heavy lift," Bondi responded.
