HHS Sec. Kennedy says no one knows how many Americans died from COVID

In an exchange with Sen. Mark Warner about how many Americans have died from COVID-19, RFK Jr. claimed that nobody knows because of a lack of government data.

"I don't think anybody knows that, because there was so much data chaos coming out of the CDC and there were so many perverse incentives," he said.

But this data is easily accessible. Approximately 1.2 million Americans have died from the virus, according to both the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the Worth Health Organization.
