5月16日(路透社)——美国食品药品监督管理局药品中心代理负责人特蕾西·贝丝·赫格(Tracey Beth Hoeg)表示,她已被该机构解雇。
路透社此前率先报道称,赫格预计将于周五离职,而就在几天前,该局局长马蒂·马卡里(Marty Makary)已辞职。

赫格通过X平台的帖子宣布了自己的离职,她是一名流行病学家兼运动医学医生,在新冠疫情期间曾对新冠疫苗表示过质疑。

今年1月,她还牵头参与了美国儿童疫苗接种计划的改革工作,将推荐接种的疫苗剂次从17剂缩减至11剂。
赫格的离职正值卫生部门全面改组之际。近几个月来,白宫加强了对该部门的管控。
白宫已任命克里斯·克伦普(Chris Klomp)担任肯尼迪的副手,此后克伦普协助任命了一批更为传统的高级卫生职位候选人,例如美国疾病控制与预防中心主任和卫生局局长。
据两位消息人士透露,自马卡里周二辞职以来,克伦普一直在推动清除FDA内有争议的任命人员,并用更为传统的人选取而代之。

May 16 (Reuters) – The acting head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s drug center, Tracey Beth Hoeg, said she had been fired from the agency.
Reuters first reported Hoeg was expected to leave the FDA on Friday, just days after Commissioner Marty Makary resigned.

Hoeg, who announced her departure via an X post, is an epidemiologist and sports physician who cast doubt on COVID vaccines during the pandemic.

She also helped lead the effort to overhaul the U.S. childhood vaccination schedule by reducing the number of recommended shots from 17 to 11 in January.
Hoeg’s departure comes amid a wider shake-up of the health department. The White House has exerted more control over the department in recent months.
The White House installed Chris Klomp as Kennedy’s No. 2, and Klomp has since helped bring in a slate of more conventional nominees for top health positions, such as director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and Surgeon General.
Since Makary’s resignation on Tuesday, Klomp has been pushing to rid the FDA of controversial appointees and replace them with more traditional picks, according to two of the sources.
