The White House decided to nominate Casey Means as surgeon general, superseding Janette Nesheiwat just a day before her Senate confirmation hearing. Nesheiwat faced opposition for her supportive stance on coronavirus vaccines. Casey Means, associated with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s 'Make America Healthy Again' initiative, emphasizes addressing chronic diseases. She has a background in medicine and is noted for her work as a health influencer. Her nomination marks a shift towards an agenda focused on holistic health approaches and reversing chronic health issues in America.
Casey Means has said she earned a medical degree at Stanford University but dropped out of a residency program because she was frustrated the health-care system did not focus enough on the root causes of poor health.
Casey has impeccable 'MAHA' credentials, and will work closely with our wonderful Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to ensure a successful implementation of our Agenda.
The decision came a day before Nesheiwat was scheduled to appear before the Senate, facing criticism for her past advocacy for coronavirus vaccines.
Casey Means, along with her brother, Calley Means, are key allies to Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and helped drive momentum behind the MAHA initiative.
