End Times Headlines: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has unveiled a sweeping public health proposal to promote wearable health-tracking devices for all Americans within the next four years—a plan he believes could revolutionize wellness across the nation.
During a recent House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee hearing, the independent presidential candidate emphasized that fitness trackers like Apple Watch, Fitbit, Oura rings, and similar devices are integral to his “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) initiative.
According to The Daily Mail, Kennedy argued that these technologies empower individuals to take proactive steps toward better health by offering real-time insight into metrics like heart rate, sleep quality, and glucose levels.
“It’s a way people can take control over their own health… They can see what food is doing to their glucose levels, their heart rates, and a number of other metrics,” Kennedy told lawmakers. “And they can begin to make good judgments about their diet, their physical activity, and the way that they live their lives.”
To achieve this goal, Kennedy is reportedly planning what could become one of the largest advertising campaigns in U.S. history—aimed at encouraging Americans to adopt wearables.
With devices ranging from $99 to over $800, he also mentioned that the government is exploring avenues to help cover the cost for some individuals.
“You know, Ozempic is costing $1,300 a month,” Kennedy noted. “If you can achieve the same thing with an $80 wearable, it’s a lot better for the American people.”
According to recent data, over 40 percent of American adults—roughly 103 million people—already use wearable devices. The proposal could potentially double down on that trend, particularly as obesity remains a concern for a similar proportion of the population.
Wearable technologies now span more than 38 brands, offering everything from smartwatches and rings to injectable glucose monitors that stay in place for up to two weeks. Devices like the Oura ring—regularly seen on Surgeon General Dr. Casey Means—are among the high-end options and can cost up to $549.
Dr. Means, who also co-founded the wearable-focused company Levels, echoed Kennedy’s enthusiasm. She’s described wearables as the “most powerful technology for generating the data and awareness to rectify our bad energy crisis in the Western world.”
Many in the medical community support Kennedy’s proposal. Doctors note that wearables can significantly increase users’ awareness and motivation to make healthier lifestyle choices.
Social media reactions, however, have been mixed. While some users praised the initiative as a forward-thinking solution that could improve lives and reduce healthcare costs, others expressed concern. Detractors highlighted Kennedy’s past skepticism of biometric surveillance and electromagnetic radiation (EMF), arguing that this new position marks a sharp departure.
“You used to rage about these very subjects — you even made money speaking against EMFs, biometric surveillance, 5G, health privacy and so on,” one critic posted on X. “Now you’re promoting 5G biometric surveillance devices strapped to our bodies?”
Kennedy has previously claimed that EMF exposure, even at low levels emitted by wearables, can cause cellular damage and even cancer—a claim refuted by the FDA.
Whether the plan gains traction may depend on how it balances innovation with the privacy concerns Kennedy himself has voiced in the past. For now, the idea signals an aggressive and controversial move toward tech-driven personal health management.
