The White House's newly announced Make America Healthy Again Commission, led by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., seeks to tackle the rising rates of chronic diseases in the U.S. However, this initiative has drawn skepticism from medical professionals who question its methods and underlying intentions. While doctors support improving public health, they are wary of an 'over-reliance' on medications as part of the solution. Experts highlight the serious chronic disease issues and emphasize a need for effective, realistic strategies rather than merely political promises.
At the heart of the matter, you're not gonna find a doctor in this country who doesn't want to 'Make America Healthy Again.' That's something we all strive to do.
We want to be healthy. We want to decrease chronic diseases in the general population and specifically in children.
I deal with the chronic disease epidemic every day as a hospitalist. I see the end stages of chronic illness when patients get sick enough to be in the hospital.
The commission's approach raises concerns among medical experts who worry about the effectiveness and implications of its proposed methods.
