FDA Rehires Vaccine Chief After Controversy
The FDA has rehired Dr. Vinay Prasad as the head of its vaccines and gene therapy division after he resigned due to pressure from Laura Loomer, a far-right activist, despite opposition from key officials. Prasad, known for his vaccine skepticism, was previously appointed by Health Secretary RFK Jr. and had limited COVID-19 vaccine use. His reappointment has sparked controversy, especially among Trump supporters.
