“Gun violence is a public health crisis. The responsibility falls on the shoulders of the decision makers of our nation’s health systems and hospitals to change the narrative on gun safety and pursue solutions that will make a meaningful difference,” Northwell Health President and CEO Michael Dowling, the forum’s moderator, told attendees.

Late last year, a report from The Reload revealed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) purposefully important data after being lobbied by gun control groups. It confirms suspicions Americans have towards a government-funded health agency instituting policy that’s not rooted in science, that also restricts Constitutional rights.
When “gun violence” is proclaimed to be a public health issue, which Americans have a history of opposing, it’s rightly assumed that the federal government would use taxpayer funding to push an agenda based on gun control propaganda – which is illegal – rather than holding criminals accountable for their crimes.
CEO Dowling’s forum participants came with their minds already made up for more gun control. Criminals should be the focus of policies to reduce the intentional criminal misuse of firearms. Pushing gun control under the guise of “public health” is malpractice.

There's a reason that the CDC was prohibited from spending money on "gun violence prevention" way back in the 90's -- the corruption that effort institutionalized even spread to that agency's core function, as we saw the past three years.
This is their new cultural push though. Expect this to surface as an "issue" in the blue states and cities in the runup to the next presidential election.
STFU pill pushers. Your opinions on guns have no more weight than anyone else’s. Go back to bankrupting sick people. It’s what you are best at.
Goes to show how ditzy broads like the “breakfast taco” lady can become a doctor. Guns are inanimate objects. It is impossible for them to be considered the reason for a “public health crisis”. IT’S THE FRIGGIN’ PEOPLE MORONS! Now turn in your worthless doctor diplomas. Too chickensh*t to hurt some murderer’s feelings. Blame the gun. Geez.

seems the medical trade needs to clean up its hypocritical house first
CEO Michael Dowling fails right out of the gate. He describes the problem as “gun violence”. But guns don’t commit violence. People do, and sometimes they use guns to do so. The problem is too many of the people who do so are black and it has been deemed racist to acknowledge that fact. So people like CEO Michael Dowling are not serious about addressing the problem.
