Demand a competent, scientifically grounded appointee for our nation’s doctor
To: Sen. Cantwell, Sen. Murray
From: A constituent in Seattle, WA
October 28
I’m asking you to demand a competent, scientifically grounded appointee for our nation’s doctor.
Donald Trump’s latest US Surgeon General nominee, wellness influencer Casey Means, has a lapsed medical license and a concerning history of promoting lies about life-saving childhood immunizations.
Means has correctly expressed alarm over the troubling epidemic of chronic illnesses in the United States. However, many of her proposed remedies, ignore the root causes of poor health in pursuit of pseudoscientific “cures” that she profits from.
Means is an antivax quack who belongs nowhere near the DHHS, particularly amid an accelerating deadly measles outbreak.
