Acting
Surgeon General
Dr. Steven Gaison visited the
Navajo Nation on Wednesday.
Gaison helped dedicate a wellness center at the
Tse' Bit' Ai Middle
School in Shiprock, New Mexico. He also promoted the
Department of Health and Human Services' "Healthy Youth for a Healthy Future" initiative to the Navajo youth.
The students gave Gaison a lesson of their own, beating him at the
Dance Dance Revolution game. "I've tried it before but it seems like only people under the age of 20 can do it," Gaison told The Farmington Daily Times.
