In one week, Donald Trump’s Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. disbanded the National Cancer Institute Board of Science Advisors, fired hundreds of employees of the National Institutes of Health, and nominated a new Surgeon General who is not even a practicing physician and dropped out of her residency. The entire healthcare system is under attack from the very top. Our nation will be in real danger when faced with another crisis like COVID or worse and the damage is going to last for decades. This week Fred is joined by Dr. Anahita Dua the founder of Healthcare for Action and a highly respected vascular surgeon, working to reform our healthcare system and support science. We dive deep into the entirely unacceptable nomination of Dr. Casey Means as Surgeon General, the damage at NIH, and her belief that all Presidential candidates should pass a full cognitive testing battery. Don’t miss this one!
