New Admiral, but in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (USPHS), not the Navy. Who are these folks? From their site:<\/p>\n
The U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps is an elite team of more than 6,000 well-trained, highly qualified public health professionals dedicated to delivering the nation’s public health promotion and disease prevention programs and advancing public health science.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Of course Joe’s handlers thought the U.S. assistant secretary for health, Rachel Levine, would make a fine four star there.<\/p>\n

A senior Biden health appointee who made history when she became the nation’s highest-ranking openly transgender official is also set to become its first openly transgender four-star officer, the administration announced on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Rachel Levine, the U.S. assistant secretary for health, will be sworn in Tuesday as an admiral of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, a 6,000-person force that responds to health crises on behalf of the federal government, including administering coronavirus vaccines and delivering care after hurricanes. Levine is also the organization’s first-ever female four-star admiral.<\/p>\n
In an interview, Levine stressed that her new position as an admiral was “not just symbolic,” and that she would take a leadership role in shaping the public health corps’ priorities. “I’m doing this because of my dedication to service . . . [and] with the utmost respect and honor for the uniform that I will be wearing,” Levine said, adding she would begin wearing the group’s blue uniform immediately.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
He’ll look fabulous, but is he qualified? Most likely, although the professorship of psychiatry at Penn State is, unique. Medice, cura te ipsum.<\/p>\n
Bad optics, though. His decisions as Pennsylvania\u2019s health secretary required nursing homes to accept Covid patients are questionable. The real problem is in moving his own mother out of one as soon as it became known this was a very bad idea.<\/p>\n
Thanks, MD61.<\/p>\n
