Susan Monarez, former CDC director, tells Senate committee 'true reason' she believes she was fired
"I was fired for holding the line on scientific integrity," Monarez said.
A pivotal moment, she said, was an August meeting in which she said Kennedy told her to preemptively accept recommendations from a CDC vaccine advisory panel and to fire career officials overseeing vaccine policy.
"I would not commit to that, and I believe it is the true reason I was fired," Monarez said. Monarez said Kennedy was "very upset" when she pushed back in the meeting.
