In a resignation letter, referring to Kennedy, Marks wrote: “It has become clear that truth and transparency are not desired by the secretary, but rather he wishes subservient confirmation of his misinformation and lies.”
Marks also issued a stark warning, according to media outlets who obtained the letter, saying: “Undermining confidence in well-established vaccines that have met the high standards for quality, safety and effectiveness that have been in place for decades at FDA is irresponsible, detrimental to public health and a clear danger to our nation’s health, safety and security.”
The departure follows reports that Kennedy has turned to a noted vaccine sceptic, David Geier, to lead the HHS in a study of potential links between vaccines and autism. Any links between autism and vaccines have long been debunked.
Look, I get it. I wouldn’t want to work with this guy (brain worm kennedy) either. But resigning from this when you yourself are on the right side of history to make sure they appoint someone to replace you who isn’t… that’s not really making anything better.
He was given the choice of resigning or being fired. In a fait accompli, resigning is the better call. I’ve had to do this myself.
Yeah when you see these resignations it’s not because they are giving up the fight, they were told to fall in line or get fired, so they resign.
