I'm a physician and I'm worried that our health agencies are facing increasing chaos

The American health system is bleeding out, and it desperately needs a real doctor.
Leading Health and Human Services (HHS) today is like navigating a chaotic hospital — 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.
A patient’s oxygen level plummets; nurses turn to HHS Secretary Kennedy. Instead of orders, they get a lecture on conspiracies. Chaos follows.
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.
Conspiracy ideology is beginning to take over, and we’re all going to pay the price.
I’m a board-certified physician and one of the most-followed online, and since Kennedy took office, I’ve been forced to swap from fact-checking Instagram influencers to fact-checking the nation’s top public-health official.
