Washington, April 1:슬롯 머신 사이트 추천As they readied to leave work Monday, some workers at the Food and Drug Administration were told to pack their laptops and prepare for the possibility that they wouldn't be back, according to an email obtained by The Associated Press.
Nervous employees 슬롯사이트� roughly 82,000 across the nation's public health agencies 슬롯사이트� waited to see whether pink slips would arrive in their inboxes.

The email sent to some at the FDA said staffers should check their email for a possible notice that their jobs would be eliminated, which would also halt their access to government buildings. An FDA employee shared the email with AP on condition of anonymity, because they weren't authorized to disclose internal agency matters.
Kennedy has criticized the department he oversees as an inefficient 슬롯사이트œsprawling bureaucracy슬롯사이트� and said the department's $1.7 trillion yearly budget 슬롯사이트œhas failed to improve the health of Americans.슬롯사이트� He plans to streamline operations and fold entire agencies 슬롯사이트� such as the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration 슬롯사이트� into a new Administration for a Healthy America.
Anand Parekh, who worked worked at the department during the Bush and Obama administrations and is now the chief medical adviser at the Bipartisan Policy Center, wonders what kind of analysis Kennedy has done to arrive at job cuts. He questioned how closely Kennedy could examine each of the agencies after spending just over a month as health secretary.
슬롯사이트œOne would hope that as they made these cuts, they really did a deep dive,슬롯사이트� Parekh said. 슬롯사이트œIt's not quite clear from a transparency perspective how they got from where they were to here.슬롯사이트� On Friday, dozens of federal health employees working to stop infectious diseases from spreading were told they'd be put on leave.
Several current and former federal officials told the AP that the Office of Infectious Disease and HIV/AIDS Policy was hollowed out that night. Some employees posted on LinkedIn about the office emptying. And an HIV and public health expert who works directly with the office was emailed a notice saying that all staff had been asked to leave. The expert spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity over fears of losing future work on the issue.
Several of the office's advisory committees 슬롯사이트� including the National Vaccine Advisory Committee and others that advise on HIV/AIDs response 슬롯사이트� have had their meetings cancelled. 슬롯사이트œIt puts a number of important efforts to improve the health of Americans at risk,슬롯사이트� said Dr. Robert H. Hopkins Jr., the former chair of the National Vaccine Advisory Committee, an advisory committee of the office.
An HHS official said the office is not being closed but that the department is seeking to consolidate the work and reduce redundancies. Also, as of Monday, a website for the Office of Minority Health was disabled, with an error message saying the page 슬롯사이트œdoes not exist.슬롯사이트�슬롯 머신 사이트 추천Federal Layoffs: US Health Department To Cut 10,000 Jobs as Part of Restructuring, Robert F Kennedy Announced Hinting Move Aligns With 슬롯사이트˜MAHA슬롯사이트� Plan, Say Reports.
Beyond layoffs at federal health agencies, cuts have begun at state and local health departments as a result of an HHS move last week to pull back more than $11 billion in COVID-19-related funds. Local and state health officials are still assessing the impact, but some health departments have already identified hundreds of jobs that stand to be eliminated because of lost funding, 슬롯사이트œsome of them overnight, some of them are already gone,슬롯사이트� said Lori Tremmel Freeman, chief executive of the National Association of County and City Health Officials.
