President Trump has nominated Dr. Casey Means to serve as the U.S. surgeon general, replacing Dr. Janette Nesheiwat, whose nomination was withdrawn prior to a Senate confirmation hearing. Means, a close ally of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is recognized for her focus on addressing the root causes of health issues and co-founded a health app, Levels. With a background in public health advocacy and significant media presence alongside her brother, Calley Means, she aims to influence national health agendas, pending Senate confirmation.
