Casey Means in the news as scrutiny over her surgeon-general bid and vaccine stance stalls her Senate path. She’s an American physician, wellness author, Stanford med grad.
Trump has nominated Nicole B. Saphier for Surgeon General after withdrawing Casey Means. Saphier is a radiologist and MSK Monmouth director of breast imaging.

Means has faced questions about licensing and vaccine positions; Cassidy has been a pivotal critic. The Healthcare politics dynamic remains unsettled as Kennedy’s stance blends with broader vaccine skepticism within the administration.
