Health museum in downtown Atlanta?

Posted by Scott Freeman on Thu, Mar 27, 2008 at 2:43 PM

A museum devoted to health? Yeah, that'll really make Atlanta a tourist destination hot spot.

From today's AJC:

Dr. Louis Sullivan, an Atlanta resident and former U.S. secretary of Health and Human Services, is leading the effort to establish a museum dedicated to celebrating great achievements in health care and inspiring the next generation of health professionals.

"We're talking to officials here in Georgia — the governor, the mayor, the Chamber of Commerce," Sullivan said. "We're really getting quite a positive response."

He added, "We have a lot to work out to see if this is economically feasible."

Sullivan is chairman of the board of the National Health Museum, which is choosing a site.

Gov. Perdue ought to be heavily in favor of a health museum because it can have a big wax statue of him that says "Dickhead."
