The U.S. Surgeon General, Dr. Vivek Murthy, declared gun violence an urgent public health crisis on Tuesday. This landmark announcement was driven by the fast-growing number of injuries and deaths involving firearms in the country. Murthy called for the collective commitment of the nation to change course and urged Americans to act to prevent rising firearm-related deaths and their cascading effects. The declaration follows a spate of recent shootings, which have left dozens either dead or wounded.
