So, a proprietor/lawyer/businessman with health care experience making
money and writing policy, and Republican National Cte. experience, but
nothing in his resume related to social determinants of health, is to be
the proposed US representative to the world on this issue? Who's making
this nomination? Shouldn't we have cared about, know about, and worked on
the issues of social determinants of health be having a voice, or hollering
about this, here?
