The Journal of the American Medical Association points out that the Surgeon General misrepresented the hazards of secondhand smoke
The "there is no safe level" argument that activists are trying to spin, doesn't seem to sit well with the JAMA. JAMA calls the Surgeon General's June 27, 2006 rhetoric for what it is...........a misrepresentation of the facts.Dr. Siegel covers the Rest of the Story.
It would seem then that Surgeon General Carmona's resignation from his post was due to pressure from the scientific community for his exaggerations in his June 27, 2006 press release.
