RFK Jr. Says CDC Must More Closely Align With Trump’s Agenda

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the US Health and Human Services Secretary, has stated that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) needs to align more closely with President Donald Trump's agenda. This statement comes a day after the White House fired the CDC director following a clash over vaccines. Kennedy believes the CDC is not sufficiently aligned with the Trump administration's priorities and requires an overhaul. The firing of the CDC director is seen as an indication of the administration's desire to reshape the agency's priorities to better fit the president's agenda. The article suggests that the tension between the CDC and the White House over vaccine policies is a driving factor behind the call for the CDC's realignment. The administration appears to be seeking greater control over the public health agency's decision-making processes and policies.
