But he still has an active MD degree and license to practice, so the AMA supports him.

"Ladapo earned a M.D. and a Ph.D. in health policy from Harvard University. He served as a professor of medicine at New York University before being tenured at the University of California, Los Angeles, prior to his appointment to his current position by Florida Governor Ron DeSantis."

Given that CV, it's hard to take MD's seriously any more. See also Rand Paul, Meh Oz, and other Republican MD clowns.

If we were to extend the most charitable interpretation of this decision we could say that this is a unique opportunity to study the proliferation of disease in a population. It's not often scientists get a chance to do that kind of work because it's not ethical but if you have Dr Mengele at the helm, might as well make lemonade.
