Will Instantly Disappear and Be Replaced by Something Even More Bizarre and Inexplicable

I am referring, of course to the apparent defenestration of Rachel Walensky, head of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, who will be exiting in June.

The claim is that she felt that it was time, but:

• There was little or no warning before the announcement.
• She teared up at a zoom meeting announcing her resignation.
  
• The White House commented on her exit before the CDC made the announcement.

I cannot say that she will be missed.  She was the very epitome of the psychopathic public health, "Professionals," who saw the unraveling the public health apparatus in the United States (such as it is) as essential to the return to normalcy.

There are millions of people with long Covid, and hundreds of thousands of people dead, because they decided to rely entirely on a non sterilizing vaccine.

I'm sure that next person will be just as wrong-headed and destructive:

Rochelle Walensky, who as director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention played a major role in the nation’s coronavirus response, will step down from the agency June 30, a move that marks a new phase in the nation’s management of the receding pandemic.

Her departure — announced the same day that the World Health Organization said it was ending the global public health emergency for the coronavirus — leaves a vacuum at the helm of a once-storied agency that faces enormous challenges as it struggles to regain public trust. After coming under fire for the CDC’s failure to respond effectively to the coronavirus pandemic, Walensky last year announced plans for extensive changes to the agency, including faster release of scientific findings and easier-to-understand guidance.

“It makes no sense for her to step down now, when she was just starting to do the hard work of reforming the agency,” said Celine Gounder, an infectious-disease specialist at NYU Grossman School of Medicine. “It’s odd to have gone through the process of identifying the problems and begin executing on a vision, and then not be able to finish the job.”

“It feels like there’s such desperation to put the pandemic behind us, and that includes those who led us through those darkest days,” Gounder said.

Walensky announced her departure Friday during an all-staff meeting, crying as she finished her remarks, according to employees who tuned in.

I don't know what failure they will choose to replace her, but I would be willing to bet dollars to navy beans that this person will at least as bad.
