About the Episode
The FDA’s top vaccine official has resigned. On Friday, Dr. Peter Marks wrote that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wants “subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.” That follows this week’s announcement that the Department of Health and Human Services would fire around 10,000 of its workers. Ali Rogin speaks with two former HHS leaders about what this means for the country.
