Examining Our COVID-19 Response: An Update from Federal Officials
10:00 a.m.
Anthony Fauci, M.D., Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
David Kessler, M.D., Chief Science Officer for COVID Response at the Department of Health and Human Services
Peter Marks, M.D., Ph.D., Director, Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, Food and Drug Administration
Rochelle Walensky, M.D., M.P.H., Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
If you go to the grocery store and pick up something wondering what s in it, that nutrition label is there because of rules from the Department of Health and Human Services.
If you show up at an emergency room needing medical care, you have to get treated because of these rules. You re also able to drink bottled water knowing it doesn t contain arsenic because of rules, too.
All of those rules and thousands of others could disappear without warning because of the Trump administration s Securing Updated and Necessary Statutory Evaluations Timely or SUNSET rule, finalized the day before President Biden s inauguration. A lawsuit filed Tuesday in federal court argues that that rule is a ticking time bomb designed to tie up the current administration in bureaucratic knots.
