Dr. Leana Wen was president of Planned Parenthood for a couple of minutes before they determined she wasn't extreme enough. Instead, she became a regular commentator in newspapers and on cable news. She wrote that people who weren't vaccinated against COVID-19 shouldn't be allowed to leave their homes. A few months later, she was on CNN telling us that the cloth masks we'd been wearing for two years were "little more than facial decoration."
A week ago, Wen was back with another column, this one about the devastating measles outbreak in Florida and how it's a tragedy that could have been prevented.
Hey @DrLeanaWen, do you plan to update this sad shriek of an article now that the Florida measles “outbreak” - all nine cases of it - has ended with no more infections? (As far as I can tell, there were no hospitalizations and of course no deaths in this “devastating tragedy.”) pic.twitter.com/6RdllhQJPV

'Member when she wanted mandatory vaccines for everyone, right up until people suggested mandating it for kids as young as her own kids happened to be? I 'member.

It’s a non-fatal disease these days - how can anyone, especially this woman, continue with these narratives after her COVID embarassment

Does anyone seriously listen to her anymore?

Has she ever gotten anything right? She should leave the public eye for everyone's sake (but she won't)

Measles? Haha. Didn't the Brady Bunch kids all get the measles and said it was the best sick days they ever had?

She is such a hack

Wen is one of those people who has just enough credibility to be a medical commentator for CNN.
As a bonus, here's a woman losing close relationships — in 2024 — over masking:
Point of view: you just found out one of your favorite people in the whole world stopped masking and now you feel unsafe.
