The director of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Susan Monarez, was reportedly dismissed on Wednesday after resisting changes in the COVVI-19 vaccine policies, according to the Washington Post. But her lawyer says that she was not officially informed of the termination, throwing a curve ball in an already chaotic news cycle at the CDC.

“When CDC director Susan Monarez refused to make a non -scientific rubber stamp, reckless directives and health experts dedicated to fire, she chose to protect the public to serve a political agenda,” said prosecutor Mark Zaid on Wednesday evening. “For that, she was targeted.”

“The DRE Monarez did not resign or received from notification from the White House that it was dismissed, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, it will not resign,” continued Zaid.

Monarerez was confirmed by the US Senate only four weeks ago. After the news broke out of her eviction (whether real or simply imagined by the Trump regime), several other senior officials from the Federal Health Agency announced that they are resigning, including the chief doctor.

Monarrez was “pressed for days” by lawyers of the Trump regime and Robert F. Kennedy, secretary of health and social services, to cancel certain approvals for hairstyle vaccines, according to the post. Kennedy personally asked Monarez if she was “aligned with the administration’s efforts to change the policy of vaccines”, and it seems that we can guess that it was not.

Kennedy would have asked Monarez to resign not to support the “program of President Trump”, but she refused and even asked for the support of Senator Bill Cassidy, a republican of Louisiana, who received criticisms for not having pushed stronger against the Crusaders of Trump like Kennedy. Cassidy is a doctor and was considered one of the few Republicans able to stop the fanatics of the Trump diet that push anti-vaccine policies.

Monarez had testified during her confirmation hearing that she had not seen any link between vaccines and autism, which contradicted her with the vision of the world of Kennedy and the movement of the so-called Make America Healthy Again (Maha). Kennedy promised for the first time in April to reveal the “cause” of autism in September – something that should be a huge red flag for anyone cares about science. Scientific discoveries are not announced on a calendar as an album. Kennedy renewed his promise to reveal the “cause” during a meeting of the cabinet on Tuesday.

The X account for HHS said that Monarez was no longer “director” of the CDC, thanking her for her “dedicated service” but without explaining why she left.

The other senior officials who resigned following the supposed forecasts of Monarez include everyone, from the chief doctor to experts on infectious diseases and vaccinations.

Debra Houry resigns

Debra Houry, the chief doctor of the CDC, would have resigned, explaining in a memo to the staff that “I undertake to protect the health of the public, but the changes in progress prevent me from continuing in my work as a chief of the agency”, according to Stat.

Houry wrote that science should “never be censored or subject to political interpretations”, which suggests that such a thing was currently underway at the CDC.

“Vaccines save lives – it is an undeniable, well -established scientific fact,” wrote Houry, according to the Washington Post. “Recently, the overestimation of risks and the rise of disinformation has cost lives, as shown by the greatest number of American measles in 30 years and the violent attack on our agency.”

Houry referred to a shooting at the CDC headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia, earlier this month. A police officer was killed and the shooter, identified as Patrick Joseph White, drew at least 500 rounds in the building before committing suicide. White would have been upset by the COVVI-19 vaccine, which, according to him, made him sick.

Jennifer Layden resigns

Jennifer Layden, Director of the Public Health, Surveillance and Technology Office of CDC, also resigned on Wednesday, according to Politico. Layden joined the CDC in 2020, from the Chicago Department of Public Health, and co-directed a CDC working group on COVVI-19 which published advice on vaccines at the height of the pandemic.

Demeter daskalakis resigns

Demeter Daskalakis, director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, also resigned following the dismissal of Moranez.

“I am no longer able to play in this role because of the current armament of public health,” said Daskalakis in an email, according to Stat. Daskalakis wrote that he hoped that CDC staff “would continue to shine despite this dark cloud on the agency and our profession”, according to the post.

Daniel Jernigan resigns

Daniel Jernigan, director of the National Center for Emerging Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, also resigned, according to Reuters. Jernigan’s departure is particularly important, given that the United States has just confirmed its first case of parasitis of Ver with Flesh Eat.

Monarrez was not Trump’s first choice for the head of the CDC. The president, presumably in consultation with RFK Jr., wanted the member of the Dave Weldon Republican Congress to Florida takes this role. Weldon was withdrawn from the consideration in March on his anti-vaccine opinions.

One of Kennedy’s allies told Daily Beast this week that the Secretary of Health plans to completely draw COVVI-19 vaccines from the market “in a few months”, but it is not clear if it will really happen. Kennedy announced on Wednesday that the FDA revoked the authorization to use the cocovated vaccine and issued closer rules that will make the task much more difficult for people under 65 and those without other health problems to be vaccinated.

It seems very likely that these changes in the vaccine policy against 19 COVID-19 are at the heart of the reshuffle of the CDC, that some people call Bloody on social networks on Wednesday.
