she did not complete her head and neck surgical residency at Oregon Health and Science University, is not board-certified, and does not have an active medical license
This is a huge red flag. She fucked up and killed someone in residency.
Being picked by Trump at all is a red flag
Less of a grilling and more of a light seasoning.
It's fuckin RAW
Don't worry, Maine's senator will look grumpy and then vote yes, fucking over millions of people and destroying our healthcare system (even more). But Maine will re-elect their Senator anyway because... They love sending their best, I guess?
Maine loves to be moderate about their sanity and empathy, Susan Collins is no exception!
Graham Platner gives me some hope though.
Would it kill him to pick an actual, i dunno.....DOCTOR?
a what?
edit aren't those people who's job it is to fake things?
So assuming a 'surgeon general' is some sort of political / medical position, would it not be better to have someone qualified and experienced in Medicine?
did you see the last clown they appointed?
Define better... Then better for who?
One definition of better from:
The GNU version of the Collaborative International Dictionary of English :
Better Advantage, superiority, or victory; -- usually with of.
If a person is qualified in medicine are they not able to make decisions based on current medical science and evidence? Therefore may be improved outcomes for patience.
This post seems to be subject to decision by the senate, so I am guessing they are going to ask questions to ensure this person is suitable for the job.
Sugeon General
The U.S. Surgeon General is the Nation’s Doctor, providing Americans with the best scientific information available on how to improve their health and reduce the risk of illness and injury. The Surgeon General oversees the U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) Commissioned Corps, an elite group of over 6,000 uniformed officers who are public health professionals. The USPHS mission is to protect, promote, and advance the health of our nation.
Another highly qualified individual. At least this one has a degree in the field.
Going through med school but then not completing residency or boards screams silver spoon.... I've seen a lot of idiots get through school and come out idiots on the other side.
