1. WHT with the clickbait-grade headline, "Social Welfare Queen"? "Welfare Queen" is grossly obvious insinuation that she's been milking social programs for bennies.
2. Ferrer's education, while not medical, does suit her to be and administrator of a county health department. From

Dr. Barbara Ferrer Education
Dr. Ferrer has a Bachelor of Arts in Community Studies from the University of California, Santa Cruz. She has a Master of Arts in Public Health from Boston University, a Master of Arts in Education from the University of Massachusetts, Boston and a Ph.D. in Social Welfare from Brandeis University.
Dr. Barbara Ferrer Public Health
According to first5la.org Dr. Barbara is a nationallyâ€known public health leader with over 30 years of professional experience as a philanthropic strategist, public health director, educational leader, researcher, and community advocate.
She served as the Executive Director of the Boston Public Health Commission, where she led a range of public health programs and built innovative partnerships to address inequities in health outcomes and support healthy communities and healthy families. Under her leadership Boston saw significant improvements in health outcomes, including a decrease in the rates of childhood obesity, smoking, and infant mortality.
Ferrer doesn't have the medical chops to make such decisions on her own, but she does have medical people in her department. If she merely communicated their recommendations, there's no big deal in her not being an MD.
OTOH, if she made the decision on her own and contrary to her medical staff's recommendations, there would be. Does FrontPageMag claim she did? Or is FrontPageMag a clickbait source posting a fauxny scandal by playing on readers' confirmation bias.
