The Trump White House chose top deputy to RFK Jr., Jim O’Neill, to serve as acting CDC Director after Dr. Susan Monarez was ousted from the position on Wednesday, according to The Washington Post.
On Wednesday CDC Director Susan Monarez was fired less than a month on the job.
According to The Washington Post, Monarez departed the CDC over RFK Jr.’s push to change vaccine policy.
However, instead of cleaning out her desk, Dr. Monarez remained defiant and said she would not resign in a statement through her lawyers.
