The FDA's vaccine chief, Dr. Vinay Prasad, is calling it quits after less than three months on the job. No official reason was given for his sudden departure, but it’s raising eyebrows given the critical role he played in overseeing vaccine regulations.
Editor’s Note: The FDA’s vaccine division is a big deal—it shapes policies that affect millions of Americans. When a top leader leaves this quickly, it’s worth paying attention to, even if we don’t yet know the full story. Could signal internal friction, personal reasons, or just a bad fit—but either way, it leaves a key position vacant at a time when vaccine decisions (like updates for COVID or flu shots) are constantly in the spotlight.
