In a new interview, Surgeon General Jerome Adams drew parallels between himself and George Floyd, whose death while in Minneapolis police custody has sparked protests across the nation and globe. “That could have been me,” Adams told Politico’s "Pulse Check" podcast. Floyd, 46, was “the same age that I am,” Jerome said. They saw that,” Adams said. Still, he said he understands why Americans are taking the risk to protest, saying “we need a lot of work” to reform police departments.
