At least 10,000 Americans will lose their jobs at the Department of Health - a massive reduction in the US Health Department. In total the amount of people who will leave the Health and Human Services Department will be about 20K if you include voluntary buyouts.
Kennedy said the department will also close half of its regional offices and create a new agency called the “administration for a healthy America”, or AHA.
“We aren’t just reducing bureaucratic sprawl. We are realigning the organization with its core mission and our new priorities in reversing the chronic disease epidemic,” Kennedy said on Thursday morning.
The cold reality of jobs in North America are getting scarcer and security is as low as you can imagine. These departments protect America and the world from serious infections and diseases. It is not known what impact these losses of jobs will cost the world.
From The Guardian:
“Any cut you make to a health agency should be done with incredible care and consideration for the hundreds of millions of Americans who rely on their work to stay healthy and get treatment when they’re sick,” said Chiquita Brooks-LaSure, previously the Biden administration’s CMS administrator and now a senior fellow at the Century Foundation. Taking a “wrecking ball” to health agencies and “laying off thousands of people … doesn’t move us forward”, Brooks-LaSure said.
We wouldn't expect a warm handshake or a comforting word to people losing their jobs.
