The American health system is bleeding out, and it desperately needs a real doctor. <\/p>\n

Leading Health and Human Services (HHS) today is like navigating a chaotic hospital \u2014 patients in every hallway, monitors screaming, seconds ticking away. Yet, instead of a seasoned physician who triages and trusts proven protocols, that hospital is overseen by an activist named Robert F. Kennedy Jr. <\/p>\n

A patient\u2019s oxygen level plummets; nurses turn to HHS Secretary Kennedy. Instead of orders, they get a lecture on conspiracies. Chaos follows. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

That chaos is now national. Our health agencies are trying to perform open-heart surgery while debating the effectiveness of a scalpel. Scientists who should be developing next-generation cancer vaccines are, instead, defending 60-year-old elementary science. <\/p>\n

Conspiracy ideology is beginning to take over, and we\u2019re all going to pay the price. <\/p>\n

I\u2019m a board-certified physician and one of the most-followed online, and since Kennedy took office, I\u2019ve been forced to swap from fact-checking Instagram influencers to fact-checking the nation\u2019s top public-health official. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Our nation\u2019s health system is in shambles, and the leadership of HHS plays a pivotal role in fixing this disaster. That\u2019s why it\u2019s deeply alarming that Kennedy, who continues to spread misinformation and denies the fundamentals of medicine, remains at the helm of the agency. <\/p>\n

Although he claims he\u2019s ‘not anti-vaccine,’ his words and actions tell a different story. He recklessly attacks vaccine efficacy, spreads disproven theories linking vaccines to autism, and denies fundamental virology \u2014 from diseases like HIV, measles, and more. I\u2019m all for healthy skepticism, but scientific skepticism means investigating data, not cherry-picking it \u2026 or making it up. <\/p>\n

These aren\u2019t privately held beliefs either \u2014 a post on his active X account states that the HPV vaccine ‘increases cervical-cancer risk’ all despite mountains of real-world data showing up to 88% drops in cancer among vaccinated teens. Sweden, England, and even the CDC surveillance report plunging pre-cancer rates.  <\/p>\n

Recently, he claimed, ‘50% of the population is diabetic’ and that ‘one out of every three kids’ already has the disease. In reality, true estimates put China\u2019s diabetes prevalence around 12%, and the U.S. pediatric figure closer to one in 300. If one of my interns inflated numbers by a factor of 10, they\u2019d be sent back to remedial math. Kennedy does it regularly on primetime television. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Worse, he\u2019s now canceled $12 billion in disease outbreak prevention programs, proposed a 26% cut to the NIH budget, and pink-slipped roughly 20,000 public-health scientists and staff. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Those decisions have consequences: dozens of federally funded vaccine clinics in Arizona, Minnesota, Nevada, Texas and Washington were canceled just as measles cases blew past 1,000 \u2014 the worst surge in a generation. <\/p>\n

He\u2019s dismantling the firehouse while buildings are burning. Public health cannot survive an HHS head who guts the programs that keep us safe and then fans the very myths that make outbreaks explode. Kennedy’s long record of undermining proven public health measures and spreading scientific falsehoods makes him a threat to millions of Americans. <\/p>\n

Certainly, he should never have been confirmed to lead the office in the first place, but choosing to leave him in charge is like handing the keys to a driver who continues to insist that stop signs and red lights are optional. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Today, I say that Kennedy is the wrong person to lead HHS. The integrity of our nation\u2019s health agencies demands leadership grounded in facts, research, and transparency \u2014 not misinformation. <\/i><\/p>\n

Doctors like me take an oath to \u2018do no harm.\u2019 We must call out leaders like Secretary Kennedy when they cause great harm to public health. <\/p>\n

We must stop the bleeding.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
