You called birth control pills, and I'm going to quote, a disrespect of life.. And you said Americans, quote, use birth control pills like candy.. You also claimed, contrary to established science, that hormonal birth control has, quote horrifying health risks for women.. Now, here are the facts. There are 18 FDA approved contraceptive methods hormonal and non-hormonal and there are decades decades of evidence showing that every one of these birth control methods is Safe and effective.

I believe what I would say as a private citizen is in many cases different than what I would say as a public health official. Joining a team where the purpose of this role is to communicate absolutely the best evidence-based science to the American people to keep them safe, thriving, and healthy.
