Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis attempted to clarify comments he made about Democratic 2024 candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., saying he would not put him in charge of a federal agency.

“It wouldn’t be he would be the head of CDC,” Mr. DeSantis told independent journalist Megyn Kelly in an interview last Friday, referring to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “That would be a doctor or a PhD.”
