A new director for the CDC has been confirmed by the Senate. Dr. Erica Schwartz is the chosen candidate.
The position was previously held by Susan Monarez, who was fired by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. The reason for Monarez's firing was a disagreement over vaccines.
This incident occurred last year. Further information on Dr. Schwartz's confirmation and the circumstances surrounding Monarez's departure can be found in the Waco Tribune-Herald.
