3月25日（路透社）- 卫生部门发言人表示，白宫将推迟周三截止日期前任命新的疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）主任，现任代理主任杰伊·巴塔查里亚将继续监督该机构。
自美国总统唐纳德·特朗普在8月解雇主任苏珊·莫纳雷斯（Susan Monarez）后，因她反对卫生部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪（Robert F. Kennedy Jr.）提出的疫苗政策变更，CDC一直处于不确定状态。
她被卫生与公众服务部副部长吉姆·奥尼尔（Jim O’Neill）取代，而奥尼尔又在2月被美国国立卫生研究院主任杰伊·巴塔查里亚取代。
根据联邦法律，参议院确认的职位仅允许代理人员最多填补210天。对于CDC职位，该期限将于3月25日结束。
发言人表示：“巴塔查里亚博士将通过履行CDC主任的可授权职责继续监督CDC。”他补充说，肯尼迪和卫生与公众服务部首席顾问克里斯·克洛姆普（Chris Klomp）正在与白宫就CDC主任职位的招聘进行合作。
克洛姆普上周表示，他对为CDC主任职位进行的面试感到鼓舞。
《华盛顿邮报》当天早些时候报道了这一推迟。
该报周日报道称，包括前肯塔基州州长厄尼·弗莱彻（Ernie Fletcher）、密西西比州卫生主任丹尼尔·埃尼（Daniel Edney）和心脏病专家约瑟夫·马里安（Joseph Marine）在内的约6名候选人正在考虑该职位。

Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director and acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), arrives to testify before a U.S. House Appropriations Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies Subcommittee oversight hearing on the National Institutes of Health,… Read more
March 25 (Reuters) – The White House will delay naming a new director for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention past a Wednesday deadline and the current acting director, Jay Bhattacharya, will continue to oversee the agency, a health department spokesperson said.
The CDC has been in a state of uncertainty since U.S. President Donald Trump fired Director Susan Monarez in August after she objected to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s proposed vaccine policy changes.

She was replaced by Health and Human Services Deputy Secretary Jim O’Neill, who in turn was replaced by National Institutes of Health Director Jay Bhattacharya in February.
According to federal law, Senate-confirmed positions are only supposed to have acting replacements filling the role for a maximum of 210 days. For the CDC position, that period would have ended on March 25.
“Dr. Bhattacharya will continue to oversee the CDC by performing the delegable duties of the CDC director,” the spokesperson said, adding that Kennedy and HHS chief counselor Chris Klomp are working with the White House on the CDC director search.

Klomp said last week that he was encouraged by the interviews he had done for the CDC director position.
The Washington Post reported the delay earlier in the day.
The Post reported on Sunday that about six candidates, including former Kentucky Governor Ernie Fletcher, Mississippi health director Daniel Edney and cardiologist Joseph Marine, were being considered for the role.
