70 and 80 year old people are generally unemployable due to physical and mental decline but for some reason we allow them to run the entire fucking country.

🚨 I have been told that despite bragging about her Stanford medical degree, HHS is technically proposing to have Casey Means be the first non-physician to ever be confirmed as Surgeon General - because she can’t actually be commissioned as a physician in the PHS (as every SG before her has been) because she doesn’t have an active medical license. In other words, they acknowledge that their nominee for “America’s doctor,” can’t even join the uniformed service she would be charged with leading… as a doctor (they are proposing she join in the health service officer category- which doesn’t uniformly require an active medical license. Ironically even in this category, she wouldn’t even meet the criteria to be a physician’s assistant, because it also requires an active license)🤦🏽‍♂️

They are literally attempting to lower 100+ years of merit and safety standards, so that she can take on the role. 👇🏽

A physician nominee for Surgeon General would need to meet the below Corps commissioning standards to be appointed and serve effectively in the role.

While 42 U.S.C. § 205 doesn't explicitly require an active medical license for the SG position itself, the Surgeon General must be a member of the Regular Corps - and USPHS Commissioned Corps policy mandates that PHYSICIAN officers hold a current, unrestricted, and valid medical license from a U.S. state, D.C., Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands, or Guam.

This is required for commissioning, adhering to appointment standards, maintaining basic readiness, eligibility for special pay, promotion, and overall conditions of service. Official sources confirm this: USPHS Physician profession page: "Current, unrestricted, and valid medical license from any U.S. state..." (https://t.co/wvB9EzKx7V)
Commissioned Corps Licensure policy: Keeping licenses "active and unrestricted" is mandatory for officers whose qualifying degree requires it (https://t.co/8Bnad9pNJY & Inst 251.01)

Bottom line: the current nominee for Nation’s top doctor… can’t legally be commissioned in the Corps she would be charged to lead, as a doctor!

Past Surgeons General have been required to maintain active licenses to lead credibly as the nation's top public health physician.

Lacking said licensure creates a practical (and legal) barrier to commissioning AS A PHYSICIAN and undermines the role's integrity and authority, and compromises the Corps itself. 😞
