Surgeons General Unite to Torch RFK Jr. in Unprecedented Warning

Six former U.S. Surgeons General issued a joint warning saying Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s actions “are endangering the health of the nation.”

Calling Kennedy’s stewardship a “profound, immediate and unprecedented threat,” the rare, unified blast—delivered in a Washington Post opinion page—urged replacing him with a leader “committed to scientific integrity.”

The Surgeon General is the operational head of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps and the federal government’s lead public-health voice, housed inside the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The post is presidentially nominated and Senate-confirmed, and traditionally elevates science and evidence over politics.
