I think that is a short sighted comment. Public Health provides a variety of
services that work to improve the health of our communities beyond physical
activity, nutrition and smoking.

For instance Public Health is involved in Food Security and Access work,
Violence Prevention, Immunization, Speech and Language Services, CINOT,
(Dental Treatment for Children in Need of Treatment), Sexual Health Clinics,
Car Seat Gift Program (car seats for families that can't afford them) and
the Healthy Babies Healthy Children Program to assist high risk families
access services and navigate through new parenthood. These are just a few
examples. There are many others that take a Social Determinants of Health
approach.

Just think of what we could achieve with more.

I would feel sorry for public health if they did more than simply more than
telling us to eat fruits, exercise, and quit smoking,
