CNN — Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. experienced a series of health issues in recent years, including an abnormality that he said was caused by a worm that entered his brain and then died, The New York Times reported on Wednesday.

In 2010, Kennedy, now 70, experienced severe memory loss and mental fog, he said in a deposition two years later. According to the Times, he consulted top neurologists familiar with the medical history of his uncle, the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, who had died of brain cancer in 2009. A New York doctor, after reviewing a scan of his brain, told him that his health issues could be “caused by a worm that got into my brain and ate a portion of it and then died,” Kennedy said in the 2012 deposition, which concerned a divorce from his second wife, Mary Richardson Kennedy. Robert Kennedy said at the time that his earning power had been negatively affected by the cognitive issues, the Times reported.

Around the same time, the Times said, he suffered from mercury poisoning, which can lead to neurological issues such as loss of peripheral vision, muscle weakness and issues with movement, hearing and speech, as well as memory loss. Kennedy told the paper he has recovered from the memory loss and brain fogginess and that the parasite did not require treatment.

Seriously, what is wrong with us and our political system today that our favorite candidates all have issues that would bar them from managing a 7-11?

Ok there HAS been cases of this but it is soooooo rare and given his past history of spreading pseudoscience in relation to vaccines I have to doubt his story

The initial reaction of some of us will, no doubt, be to think that this is all nonsense -- a sick hoax... but, evidently, it is not:

I respect that you have researched this BUT lets look further because this is rare in developed countries and as you see by the images are easily identified on CT. Now a reverse Google image search shows this is from the India Times

CNN's Gupta, a brain surgeon, says it was likely due to undercooked pork. Larve got into his blood stream and ended up in the brain. Pretty nasty stuff but it's why pork should never be undercooked.

It is also an argument for eating meat that has been through inspections at abattoirs

T. saginata is rare in the United States, except in places where cattle and people are concentrated and sanitation is poor, such as around feed lots where cattle can be exposed to human feces. Tapeworm infections due to T. solium are more prevalent in under-developed communities with poor sanitation and where people eat raw or undercooked pork.

The problem with someone in his condition is you can never be too sure

I never knew that tapeworms (or their eggs) appear anywhere but in the digestive system. This is interesting!

Well, whatever else, RFK Jr. has now shot himself in both feet, so to speak... should probably be praised for his candor.

Actually... from what I have read and heard about him

RFK is one of the most courageous and wise Democrats in America...........

Watch out if he ever gets his head around the following concept......

"I AM PROFOUNDLY ENCOURAGED BY THE FACT THAT OVER FOURTEEN PERCENT OF THE WRITERS AND POSTERS ON POLITICAL FORUM ACTUALLY HAVE A PRETTY GOOD UNDERSTANDING OF ECONOMICS!!!!!!!!!!! "

Because anyone smarter than a first grader doesn't want to be president. Only an idiot would want a job where half the country will be at your throat every minute of every day. The only kind of people who are dumb enough to run are the ones who don't mind wearing kick me signs on their backs.

The worm no doubt was searching for the biggest cavity in his body.

Why does this not surprise me at all? RFK Jr. was always a weird one.

The question that comes to mind: due to this worm activity in the brain.........does he have any residual brain damage?? ( that would demonstrate itself in bizarre ideas , physical impairments )....
