Top vaccine regulator returns to FDA after recent firing.
Top vaccine regulator returns to FDA after recent firing.
Don’t know about anyone else but I would’ve told them to fuck off , road that unemployment for all it’s worth then went private for way more money.
America is a mess.
I mean, I'm glad they didn't put in a complete crazy, but having to make these reversals shows incompetance
Prasad has called Jay Bhattacharya a “superb pick” to lead the National Institutes of Health, and criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci for perpetrating “malicious lies.” He’s pretty fucking crazy.
He is a legit doctor and not a MAGA person, which is better than most people Trump would appoint
He’s against mask mandates & thinks the US’ Covid response was like that of a totalitarian government.
How does opposing mask mandates contradict anything I said? Do you have a source for his claims about the US covid response? It varied so widely by region you can't really make any claims about it without specifying a state or potentially a city
Opposing mask mandates should disqualify any doctor from any position of authority - it betrays their oath to 'do no harm'.
Sounds like you nailed the biggest problem with the US response - it wasn't uniform and coordinated.

Anti-vaxers are the dumbest people on the planet.
I hope he got a big bonus to come back.
Hope this will be positive
He’s against mask mandates & calls the US’ Covid response akin to totalitarian regimes. www.persuasion.community/p/prasad
They should demand double the salary when they’re asked to come back.
The mistake was listening to Laura Loomer in the first place. She’s a conspiracy theory wacko who shouldn’t be listened to by either side of the aisle or argument.
So what do these folks have to promise to be hired back?
Anti-Vaccine - is DANGEROUS and IRRESPONSIBLE! Vaccines Protect Me From You-And Protect You From Me! #Vaccination - the Only Way to Achieve - 'Herd' Immunity! GET VACCINATED! VACCINATE YOUR KIDS! Brag About Your Vaccinations! Show Disdain for Anti-Vaxxers! The Whole World Knows Better! 🇺🇸 🌍
You're calling Vinay Prasad an anti-vaxxer?
"Prasad, a key ally of [FDA Commissioner] Makary, played an integral role developing the FDA’s regulatory approach to future approvals of Covid-19 booster shots." So, Decent #America Knows - The Jury Is Still Out.

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 that he can talk some sense into the eejits cancelling mRNA research. RFKJr, Chief Eejit, is the one who should be fired!!!
This and the rehiring of weather service ppl must be do to Right Wing billionaires' pressure on the administration. The admin cares about what no one thinks except their Right Wing billionaire financiers. Non-MAGAs they don't care about. And MAGA voters they simply lie to and don't care about either
Oops. Due to. We need an edit button.
Good 2 hear. I commend any worker returning because if allowed 2 do their job, I'm sure will help us. I'm remiss not 2 say, it takes nerve n backbone 2 return 2 an administration that has no honor, appreciation or loyalty. There probably aren't even enough other workers. "Work smarter not harder!"
Vinay Prasad is not a real scientist! His leaving was a good thing, not a bad one.
K thx. Good 2 no. I see I have another correction so I'll get 2 it. I was really commenting on the fact if Trump administration got rid of anybody, I'd be hesitant 2 go back only 2 hv them get rid of me again. Sorry.
Why do you say he’s not a real scientist? He has the degrees and experience at UCSF.
He's a total wackjob. One can have a degree, but if they don't actually practice science, they're not a scientist. Anyone who has his views is not a scientist.
Can you please explain the basis for your views? I would truly like to understand what is behind your belief. Do you know him personally? What have you read that leads you to this belief? He was a scientist at UCSF.
Just look him up. Who gives a fuck what UCSF did - there was a lot of opposition to it by experts. He's a harmful, anti-mask asshole who doesn't believe in actual science. Also, he is part of this administration, which should tell you all you need to know.
Not only a fierce opponent of mask mandates, he likens US Covid response to that of a totalitarian regime: www.persuasion.community/p/prasad
He’s a magat who doesn’t believe in masks. He’s evil and stupid.
Thx someone let me no. I hadn't focused on the name. My comment really was about going back 2 a position the administration removed anybody from and going back trusting they wouldnt do the same thing. Appreciate the feedback.🫶👐
Ich denke, wir haben hier einen perfekten Beispiel für die amerikanische Wirtschaftsphilosophie: "Wenn du nicht kannst, geh private und mach mehr Geld." Aber ist das wirklich die Lösung für die Probleme des Landes?
I BBC am glad he is back but the chaos and cruelty lof this administration is nauseating 🤮🥺
In a span of roughly 60 days they hire, they fire, they re-hire. Somehow the “fake news media” is to blame for creating chaos that threatens the important work of MAHA? 🧐
Waste of time all this back-and-forth with firing then hiring! 🙄
Oh, they figured out that these people are NEEDED
So it's an unelected conspiracy idiot making decisions for the hiring and firing of federal officials. Has the US lost it sense altogether?
Loony Laura will be annoyed. This administration is utterly insane, it's got to be the laughing stock of the world
Next admin should rebuild these back, twice as woke

A half-assed podcaster influencing FDA & NSA staffing . . . this is Orwellian dystopian fiction turned into our reality — I want John Roberts to live the PAIN HE HAS CAUSED!
How did you react when the two vaccine experts at the FDA quit their jobs in protest of political interference from the Biden administration in Sept 2021? Just curious...
Oh this is all so interesting. He made life difficult for California officials trying to encourage social distancing as COVID spread and discouraged the use of masking. (The first point may have merit, considering mental health and socializing needs, particularly for kids. But the second point….
…was vital for safe interactions in schools, in transportation situations etc) And he was cautious regarding nRNA. But he is an actual doctor, so a lot of RFK’s actions have to drive him a little nuts.
Staff morale is low at every federal agency. That’s the purpose of ignorant decision making.
Is this the new pattern? Fire everyone, break things, have phones go unanswered, viruses untreated, flood victims abandoned, than re-hire everyone and blame it on them? That last part is coming, trust me...
For incompetent GOP that runs on no platform other than racism Yes
Maybe this will buy us a little more time on the planet, with an admin dead set on wiping out human life.

Canada and Mexico should take all the great scientists from the US.
This aint good. He’s an absolute nut job Covid truther.
All the efficiency!!!
Let him slap some damn sense into Kennedy, Jr…
I guess now that he’s created a problem, when he solves the problem he created, he can claim that he has increased job numbers.
Fire, rehire, fire... All part of careful hiring and government efficiency.
Way too many ads, I do not read your articles ant more!
🤦🏻♀️
The fact that they sacked him doesn’t necessarily mean he’s a good rehire
Bent the knee to save his paycheck? Enquirering minds would like to know…
Vinay Prasad is a Paragon of Evidence Based Medicine.
I have mixed emotions about this. On one hand, happy to see experts on the job. On the other hand, those fuckers don’t deserve having this guy back.
Why? He doesn’t believe in masks. He’s a magat.
No, was fired for being a Sanders/Warren supporter
Yeah. Sure. Anti-vax, anti-mask progressive. Prasad has called Jay Bhattacharya a “superb pick” to lead the National Institutes of Health, and criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci for perpetrating “malicious lies.”
Here is the source, he was fired for supporting sanders and criticizing Trump apnews.com/article/vina... He is pro vax, he says the covid vaccine is recommended for more people than it should be, but he is absolutely not against vaccines
I'm not familiar with his view on masks, but I don't see how that negates the fact that he is a progressive supporter of Sanders and policies like M4A
Thank you for the clarification. It’s hard to keep up with all of it!
Does this sound like a progressive? Prasad has called Jay Bhattacharya a “superb pick” to lead the National Institutes of Health, and criticized Dr. Anthony Fauci for perpetrating “malicious lies.” Because that’s Prasad.
I think Bhattacharya was good by Trump standards, but not the best choice. To judge the Fauci claim I would need to know what he said and why Prasad called it a lie None of this makes me doubt his support for progressives and progressive policy like M4A
Are you an anti-vaxer too?
No, I just don't think Prasad is. From what I have seen is position is vaccines are good but the covd vax is recommended for more doses and age groups than it should be
Clearly controversial and the insight confusing/contradictory. Lesson learned: not all scientists are created alike. Next time I’ll fact check my comment before posting!
Ok. You know more than I do. Thank you for sharing.

What a miracle
I’m deaf in my right ear from #measles; infected less than 2 years before the more effective #MMR came available. Those of us living with disabilities from measles, chicken pox, mumps and rubella know that the #vaccines are safer than the diseases. RFK Jr was a deliberate choice to hurt Americans.
No more so than a person with dementia and a prolific sense of pathologically lying put into a position because his party lied to the public, and then pardoned The mastermind of virus
At a contractor rate. Art of the deal.
Thank God
Release the Trump/Epstein files
Republican games
Did someone finally realize ole worm brain was full of crap?
No this was someone RFK was OK with that Loomer got ousted
Trump Administration craziness will give you whiplash.
Stupid government
