This advisory, crafted by former Surgeon General Vivek Murthy, labeled firearm violence as a "public health crisis" in 2024. However, the link to this report has recently been erased from the HHS platform. This move aligns with the Trump administration's broader agenda to protect Second Amendment rights and counter federal gun control measures introduced under President Biden.
According to the Daily Caller, an HHS spokesperson confirmed that the agency and the Surgeon General are adhering to President Trump's executive order titled "Protecting Second Amendment Rights" by eliminating the webpage. This executive order underscores the Second Amendment as a vital safeguard for security and liberty, mandating a thorough examination of all federal actions to identify any potential infringements on citizens' rights to bear arms.

He acknowledged these measures as initial steps towards broader reforms, with the establishment of the Office of Gun Violence Prevention, led by former Vice President Kamala Harris, as a significant milestone.
