Joe Biden makes truly historic pick for assistant health secretary

Pennsylvania Health Secretary Rachel Levine is one of the few transgender people serving in elected or appointed positions in the US

Dr Levine has written about the opioid crisis, medical marijuana, adolescent medicine, eating disorders and LGBTQ medicine She won past confirmation by the Republican-majority Pennsylvania Senate and has emerged as the public face of the state's response to the coronavirus pandemic.

PanzerShock

Health secretary with a mental problem. That's not going to end well.

I mean the Secretary overseeing Pennsylvania’s incredibly high Covid death rate may have been newsworthy...but then again, so much history 🌈 journalisming

She doesn't look very healthy...

More ironic I would say....A severely overweight person as assistant health secretary. Seems a bit contradictory if you ask me.

‘Truly historic’ alright! That’s Biden’s PA thank you gift to Wolf.

Does he play AFLW?

'truly historic' - spare me.

Honk Honk 🤡 🗺

Well done if she’s highly qualified for the job I just don’t need to know if she’s transgender gay ethnicity or religion As long as she does the job great

Not really historic, she is fully qualified for this position, a nice change from Trump's Family Circus of unqualified people.

Any mention of how she pulled her own mother out of aged care right before sending a bunch of senior citizens back to their nursing homes to get COVID & die? Nah, of course not 😆😆

WhT a joke

After checking out the history, she seems like a very good choice with a fair lot of experience. Congratulations

Is that a man or woman or something else ?

He’s beautiful 🤮

thats a dude!

Yikes all the fat turds on here claiming “oh she looks healthy” what does LOOKING healthy look like? People can just BE healthy without being a model. She’s also QUALIFIED. Morons.

What does this mean for women only spaces? Toilets? Medical & counselling facilities? Rape crisis centres? Biden has no idea what his foolish decisions will mean. The man is a fool.

Onya mate

Headline is correct.

What does this mean for woman? How will this man’s decisions effect their privacy & Choice to say no to male medical staff?

Would be nice if they were the splitting image of health

God help us all! 😨

Get your tongue right up there early TheirABC 🤮

She/He( not offended u lot), looks very healthy 😳

Woke

Biden the brave 🥰🥰🥰

😂😂😂😂 Clown show

Still cannot get my head around how a non elected person who is not answerable to the people is incharge of a goverment department. How 1 person can have so much power, to which has no real oversight.

Oh she's TransGen know wonder she looks like she's in a state of national emergency.

I love Biden already 🙌

She looks healthy... not.

You have a mentally ill person who has mutilated themselves in charge of 'health' ? That's really great....

We are entering hell.

Why should the people of a Australia care who is the “assistant health secretary” of 🇺🇸? There are literally a million other, more important things going on in 🇦🇺 and 🌍 that affect our 25m people. Stop wasting tax payers money on this bs.

The media: Truly historic decision. The people: Forgets the next day.

Outstanding choice.

Another white male in his cabinet.🤔

tokenism at it's finest God help america

Wow. So many bigoted people here.

Men get picked for positions all the time.

What courage!!!!!!

Isn’t this the same health official who used her position to take her mother out of a nursing home during the pandemic when other families couldn’t? Hhhmmm

Dude needs to lose a few pounds and get a haircut.

A Jewish tranny, how healthy 🤪

Not the Dr Levine who took her elderly mother out of aged care & then authorised covid positive residents back into aged care? Oh dear, yes that Dr Levine. Classic.

The scientist from Independence Day has come a looong way man congrats

The tranny granny killer? 'Truly historic', indeed, ABC

Is this a man or woman ?

...

Umm......she doesn't look healthy.

Please tell me they did not know?

The most unhealthy looking health secretary I've ever seen. He needs to take his own advice

This is a sign of just how hilariously ridiculous Biden's term will be.

pog

Someone who doesn't know how many genders there are? Not sure historic is quite the word for this occasion.......

At his age, he needs a health secretary who understands the pain of colonoscopy.

A highly qualified woman. Great choice.

ABC you are embarrassing yourself as usual

She's qualified? Good.

The dude from independence day?
