Washington Examiner Chief Political Correspondent Byron York weighed in on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shake-up under Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s leadership, saying, “turmoil in the healthcare bureaucracy was pretty much a given.”

“If this were only about coronavirus, and the vaccine for coronavirus, I’m not sure the politics of it would be quite the same,” York said, pushing back on the narrative that Kennedy is solely focused on anti-vaccine ideology.
