One more reason the health care system is failing.

Okay, to cut to the chase....  My comment of doctors of medicine not being the brightest group was clearly sarcasm.  You don't get that?  Interesting though that you bring up the unqualified ex-heroin addict RFKjr is doing things right....  Now that is truly funny for a Canadian, truly concerning for an American.

Former Trump surgeon general says RFK Jr. must go

Jerome Adams, who served as U.S. surgeon general during the first Trump administration, said that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s time as HHS secretary "has been a failure" and he should leave the agency.

Speaking in an interview with STAT News, Adams cited RFK Jr.'s delayed response to the August shooting at the CDC's Atlanta campus, the loss of confidence towards him from HHS and related agency employees, and repeated lying.

"Well, he lied to Congress," Adams told the outlet. "It's actually very clear now — if you take the statements that he made during his confirmation hearing, and the things that he's done since then, and then his explanations for them in his most recent hearing — there’s only one of two conclusions you could come to. He’s either a bald-faced liar, or he's incredibly incompetent and doesn't understand what he's talking about."

He added that the secretary is continuing to make false or misleading statements about autism and thimerosal, a preservative used in some vaccines, that will "cause fear that is going to cause real harm to the public."

Adams added that the public's trust in the federal government's health agencies has plummeted, saying, "objectively, we can prove that trust in the CDC, the FDA, HHS have plummeted to an all-time low during his tenure and directly because of him and the misinformation he’s sown. AAP, ACOG, AAFP, these major physicians groups are literally telling their patients, 'you cannot trust the CDC anymore because of RFK.'"

After the Aug. 8 shooting at CDC headquarters in Atlanta that left a police officer dead, RFK Jr. took "18 hours to make a tepid statement, which was really capitulating to his base, and in the meantime, he posted fishing pictures," according to Adams.

"They literally do not feel safe, physically safe, emotionally safe, working for him, and I don’t know how you’re going to run one of the largest agencies on the planet when the people under you have lost complete and total trust in you."

Adams also criticized FDA Commissioner Marty Makary. "Statements like, '100% of people can get the vaccine if they choose it.' Both he and [Makary] said that. They're either lying, or they're incredibly incompetent to the point that they don't understand all the ways in which they have set up new and unique barriers for people being able to access vaccines, that contradict their pledge that they made."

"The US is the country where the most medications are sold and where the most people are sick. If you go to the grocery store, almost nothing is healthy to eat. Mr. Kennedy is right, and what he says is based on science. The people who oppose him are either blind or corrupt.

Grocery stores almost have nothing healthy to eat?  Stay out of the potato chip and candy aisles and you may find something...  So doctors are blind and corrupt and now people who oppose a signifcantly under-qualified Secretary of Health are also blind and corrupt.  You have a very active imagination....

I'm not saying doctors are corrupt, but many are blind to the truth. Those who oppose Mr. Kennedy are either corrupt or unaware. In most grocery stores, there's almost nothing truly healthy to eat—except maybe that small organic section. That's what science tells us.

The country that consumes the most pharmaceutical products is also the one with the highest number of sick people: the United States. And that’s no coincidence. Pharmaceutical products often worsen health over time, leading to suffering and eventually death. That’s what the science shows.
