#TEDMED Disappointing responses from @Surgeon_General about gun safety - consistent dodges, “President is not beholden to special interests”, failure to state gun safety as a direct priority

And ALL safety is my priority. There is no win in saying “x” is my top priority. Would you have me demote opioids? Tobacco? Let’s stop with the rhetoric and ranking and have a real conversation about common upstream causes.

Govt authoritarianism/hysteria/cultism is causing the deaths not only of chronic pain patients who can no longer access legal medicine, but it's also causing MORE overdoses. The LAST thing we need is to encourage the demonization of guns the same way govt demonizes a drug class.

Can’t say anything about guns since the orange one will go crazy mad. Sad that we have to tiptoe around public health issues.
