Joe Biden’s cabinet is loaded with some interesting individuals. One is the Assistant Secretary for Health for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Her name is Rachel Levine, and she has some radical ideas about what the word “normal” means.
She spoke at the Pediatric Grand Rounds session in Hartford and promised to those listening; that medically changing kids’ genders will soon be normalized.
She said it has the “highest support” of Biden’s administration.
One person she doesn’t have the support of is Dr. Stanley Goldfarb. He’s with a national association of medical professionals fighting people like Levine and others spreading woke activism in the healthcare system.
“Despite assertions to the contrary, a recent study from the University of Washington showed that there was absolutely no change in the psychological well-being of children with gender dysphoria treated with these medications. There can be irrevocable harm being done to children by those pushing for these radical, ideologically driven, treatments. Treatment for minors needs to be based on rigorous scientific inquiry, not on dubious, agenda-driven studies or the demands of activists.”
Someone else who thinks Levine is a quack is Congressman Andy Harris, a member of the House Doctors Caucus.
“Many pediatricians, particularly pediatric endocrinologists, have expressed serious concerns about the use of puberty blockers, hormone blockers, and sex transition surgeries in minors. These doctors know that these medications and procedures can impact children’s bone growth, fertility, and risk of breast and prostate cancer. Meanwhile, HHS has pressured providers to provide this care or else face discrimination lawsuits. We must protect our children.”
