There's discussion that, you know, KennedySecretary Kennedy was supporting Vinay Prasad and part of the concession that was made in terms of getting Kennedy to agree to his departure was that the vaccine group would be split out from the biologic center and They would appoint a new head of that vaccine group, presumably someone who shares Secretary Kennedy's views about vaccines. I think that would be very destructive to the agency and further erode morale. So things like that are allowed to happen where you get people who are anti vaxxers, for example, to oversee the vaccine division. (09:37–09:45)
