The latest news and biggest developments to keep you informed about the deadly pandemic.The head of the federal agency charged with overseeing the rapid production of a vaccine to fight thepandemic said Wednesday he was removed from his post after trying to push back against what he called “cronyism” infecting the federal effort.
“We need to be listening to experts and science, not pushing them aside," Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., wrote on Twitter following news reports regarding Bright's statement."A global pandemic is not the time to shuffle personnel, or contradict and remove experts for wanting to do their job well. These reports are incredibly disturbing and I will be pushing for answers.”
“The President and the Secretary and Congress see this as an essential effort requiring the best effort and people this Nation has,” the HHS email read. “One of our own has been tapped." When asked for the agency’s updated plan last week, Bright told ABC News in a statement that the agency’s goals are “woven into the [2018] National Biodefense Strategy, the National Health Security Strategy and Implementation Plan, and the Public Health Medical Countermeasures Enterprise multi-year budget.”
Bright’s statement Tuesday also painted a bleak picture of the weeks since the coronavirus outbreak began. “If it does work, it would be a shame we did not do it early,” he said. “We are sending them to various labs, our military, we’re sending them to the hospitals.”
