I doubt he is going to talk much about guns anymore:

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/nri/nri-achievers/Vivek-Murthy-The-PIO-tasked-with-guiding-America-to-a-healthy-lifestyle/articleshow/45530905.cms wrote:From all accounts, Dr Murthy, who is single, is far more circumspect (he has disdained from all interviews pending confirmation) and there's a fat chance he will go anywhere near the gun issue even as he focuses on the obesity crisis. Son of immigrant parents who originally hailed from Halligere near Chikmagalur in Karnataka, Vivek was born in London and grew up in Miami, where he haunted his father's medical practice as a child. According to one account, his refrigerator, when not empty, contains foods like unflavored almond milk, raw carrots, and high-protein grains, reflecting a healthy lifestyle that includes the daily practice of yoga. In 1995, he and his sister founded VISIONS Worldwide, a nonprofit dedicated to AIDS and HIV education in India.

"Republicans had held up his candidacy on two grounds. They said that at age 39, he was too young and inexperienced for the post. More importantly, they bowed to the National Rifle Association, which fiercely opposed Murthy because he had the temerity to say that guns are a public health issue."
