A former Food and Drug Administration (FDA) commissioner will lead the Biden administration’s COVID-19 response, including its efforts to quickly vaccinate more Americans as the death toll climbs to new records on a near-daily basis.
President-elect Joe Biden’s team announced Friday the choice of David Kessler as the chief science officer for its response to COVID-19, which is caused by the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus. Kessler will replace Dr. Moncef Slaoui, a President Donald Trump pick who was asked to resign. Gen. Gustave Perna, the chief operating officer for Trump’s Operation Warp Speed, is expected to stay on.
