华盛顿——特朗普总统周四宣布，他已提名埃丽卡·施瓦茨博士执掌美国疾病控制与预防中心。
施瓦茨曾在特朗普第一任期内担任总统的副卫生局局长，同时也是美国海岸警卫队少将。她拥有布朗大学的医学学位，还持有马里兰大学的法学学位。
“她是一位巨星！”总统在Truth社交平台上写道，并称她“才华横溢”。
哥伦比亚广播公司新闻周三曾报道称，施瓦茨正逐渐成为总统的该职位首选人选。
她目前担任海岸警卫队卫生、安全与工作生活主管，负责监管该部门下属的41家诊所和150个 sick bay（ Sick Bay此处为舰艇/基地医务室，译为医务室）及其他相关事务。她还牵头制定过炭疽和天花疫苗接种政策，负责过灾难应对工作，并应对过埃博拉疫情。
美国国立卫生研究院院长杰伊·巴塔查里亚博士一直担任代理疾控中心主任。去年，时任疾控中心主任苏珊·莫纳雷斯在参议院确认其任命不到一个月后就被解职。
总统还表示，他将任命肖恩·斯洛文斯基为疾控中心副主任兼首席运营官，詹妮弗·沙福德博士为疾控中心副主任兼首席医疗官。总统称，萨拉·布伦纳博士还将出任卫生与公众服务部长小罗伯特·F·肯尼迪的公共卫生高级顾问。
“这些备受尊敬的医学博士拥有相关知识、经验和顶级学位，能够恢复疾控中心的科学黄金标准，”总统写道，他同时批评了前总统乔·拜登执政时期的疾控中心。

Washington— President Trump announced Thursday that he’s nominating Dr. Erica Schwartz to run the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Schwartz, who served Mr. Trump’s deputy surgeon general during his first term, is a Coast Guard rear admiral. She received her medical degree from Brown University and also holds a law degree from the University of Maryland.
“She is a STAR!” the president wrote on Truth Social, also calling her “incredibly talented.”
CBS News reported Wednesday that Schwartz was emerging as the president’s top pick for the role.
She currently serves as the Coast Guard’s director of health, safety and work-life, overseeing the branch’s system of 41 clinics and 150 sick bays, among other responsibilities. She has also instituted anthrax and smallpox vaccination policies, overseen disaster responses and responded to the ebola crisis.
National Institutes of Health Director Dr. Jay Bhattacharya has been serving as acting CDC director. Last year, then-CDC director Susan Monarez was ousted from her job less than a month after the Senate confirmed her.
The president also said he’s naming Sean Slovenski to be CDC deputy director and chief operating officer, and Dr. Jennifer Shuford to be CDC deputy director and chief medical officer. Dr. Sara Brenner will also be Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s senior counselor for public health, the president said.
“These Highly Respected Doctors of Medicine have the knowledge, experience, and TOP degrees to restore the GOLD STANDARD OF SCIENCE at the CDC,” the president wrote, criticizing the CDC under former President Joe Biden.
