I'm writing as a constituent to voice my strong opposition to the nomination of Casey Means to serve as U.S. Surgeon General. Means is a "health influencer" without discernible qualifications to be Surgeon General and who seems to make most of her living peddling unproven products and tests sold by companies lead by herself and her brother. She dropped out of her surgical residency, is not board certified in any specialty, does not hold a license to practice medicine, and has no public health background whatsoever. I am very concerned about her ungrounded pseudo-science health claims, especially promoting scientifically unsupported disease remedies. The U.S. Surgeon General is the leading U.S. government voice on public health issues and is often referred to as the "nation's doctor." The person serving in this role must be someone Americans can trust to give credible advice based on solid science and real data, not a salesperson who specializes in selling expensive, unproven treatments. Please vote NO on this nomination. The Senate needs to demand a surgeon general who respects science and cares about facts. Thank you for your consideration.
