    • A recent report claims that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is preparing to lay off the Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a Democratic presidential candidate, is reportedly planning to significantly alter the federal government's approach to infectious diseases and HIV/AIDS policy if elected. According to sources cited by Politico, Kennedy aims to dismantle the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR) within the Department of Health and Human Services, which plays a critical role in managing public health emergencies, including pandemics. Additionally, he plans to eliminate the White House's National Security Council Directorate for Global Health Security and Biodefense. Kennedy's campaign has also expressed intentions to reform the CDC, NIH, and FDA, suggesting a major overhaul of how these agencies operate, particularly in relation to vaccine policies and pharmaceutical industry influence. These plans reflect Kennedy's skepticism towards current public health strategies and his advocacy for alternative approaches to managing health crises.
