U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Jerome Adams had to jump into his new job rather quickly. Since stepping intot he role he has been out front and center on the front lines providing credible information to the nation to help flatten the curve.
Dr. Adams served previously as Indiana’s state health commissioner during Vice President Pence’s term as Governor. Since President Trump nominated Dr. Adams for Surgeon General in 2017, he has been the fourth African American to hold the position.
At 45, Dr. Adams is facing the greatest challenge of his career as he works to understand why COVID-19 is spreading at an inordinate rate among minorities.
Madison J. Gray of BET reports, “In Chicago proper, where Blacks are 29 percent of the population, largely concentrated on the South and West sides, 61 of the 86 coronavirus deaths recorded — or 70 percent — were Black. Underlying health conditions like respiratory issues and diabetes were comorbidities, according to the data. Hypertension and diabetes, or in some instances, as chronic diseases were both, present in 81 percent of cases.”
But, in this time of liberal media pundits calling everything President Trump and his administration officials do racist, not even Dr Adams—who is black—gets a pass on being called racist. The liberal media can’t resist suggesting a stalwart like Dr. Adams is using racist language for using a term for grandmothers like he does for his own.
