Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: “We are now at 72,000 and we're hiring 12,000 new employees.”

“How many full time employees do we have in HHS now? Which includes last year when I talked to you, there were 62,000, down from 82,000. We are now at 72,000 and we're hiring 12,000 new employees. We will have made up all the employees that we lost and we've replaced them with a better group of people who are actually going to address chronic health.” (01:07–01:13)
