President Donald Trump has nominated Casey Means, a social media influencer, for the position of U.S. Health Director. Means, who holds a medical degree, transitioned from practicing medicine to becoming a wellness influencer. She has established connections with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. This nomination follows Trump's decision to withdraw the previous nomination of Janette Nesheiwat, a Fox News contributor, for the same role. Means does not have prior experience in public administration. She operates a health technology company that assists clients in monitoring their blood pressure and other health metrics, and she also generates income through the sale of dietary supplements, creams, and teas.

🔎 Fact Check

The post is accurate in stating that Trump nominated Dr. Casey Means, a wellness influencer, for the position of U.S. Health Director, and that she has connections with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. However, it misrepresents the role by referring to it as "Health Director" instead of "surgeon general."
