Worm partially devours brain of Robert Kennedy Jr, US presidential candidate

The New York Times reported that a parasite caused “obvious cognitive problems” for White House candidate Robert Kennedy Jr., the nephew of “JFK”. The investigation revealed that a worm had eaten away part of his brain, leading to serious health issues. Robert Kennedy Jr. is the son of former Democratic Attorney General and presidential candidate Robert “Bobby” Kennedy, and is an independent candidate in the upcoming presidential election against Joe Biden and Donald Trump.

According to a 2012 deposition consulted by the media, Robert Kennedy Jr. disclosed that doctors had diagnosed a parasite in his brain that had entered, eaten part of it, and died. This led to noticeable cognitive issues, as well as both long-term and short-term memory loss. A spokesperson for the candidate confirmed that the parasite was contracted during a trip to Africa, South America, or Asia more than ten years ago. Despite these challenges, Robert Kennedy Jr. is said to be in good physical and mental health today.

In addition to the parasite, the New York Times reported that the candidate also suffered from mercury poisoning, which can contribute to neurological problems. The spokesperson for Robert Kennedy Jr. took a jab at his opponents, Joe Biden and Donald Trump, by highlighting that his health is not in question compared to theirs, given their older ages.
