‘Americans should be alarmed’: Experts say loss of expertise at CDC will harm US health

The article highlights the growing concerns over the loss of expertise at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the leadership of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has a history of promoting anti-vaccination beliefs. The article states that the CDC is facing an unprecedented loss of expertise due to high-profile departures and sweeping layoffs, which has led to an erosion of trust in the agency. Experts, such as Nirav Shah, a former CDC official, warn that these changes leave the US less safe at a time of rising public health threats. The article suggests that the American public should be alarmed by these developments, as the loss of expertise at the CDC could have serious consequences for public health.
