Scoop - the White House is tapping JIM O'NEILL to serve as acting head of CDC, people familiar tell me O'Neill has been serving as RFK Jr's deputy secretary. He has been vocally supportive of vaccines in the past, but also criticized Biden covid vax response. More at The Post:

Hi Dan, since there's no ombuds at WaPo, would you be willing to revise this sentence? "Like Monarez, O’Neill is not a physician." Seems like an unnecessary and gendered comparison, given Dr. Monarez's training is an order of magnitude more relevant than O'Neill's. CDC has always been more than MDs.

O'Neill not a doctor. He is not a scientist. O'Neill is Peter Thiel's pal. bsky.app/profile/capi...

So Prez still hasn't fired Susan Monarez officially? She was fired by a building? And that same building named her successor? Is the building being run by AI? Is the 79 year old Prez aware this is going on?

SCOOP: He’s Thiel trash installed to destroy what’s left of CDC. You are Bezos trash, misinforming to support the wealthy.

So the acting head of the CDC will no longer be a physician?

I read the article, Dan. Hoping you can find out if he has any health credentials? No obvious letters after his name…

Doesn’t matter what he’s done in the past if he’s just gonna rubber stamp the RFK policies that Monarez was fired over
