00:00And what impact could the firing of Susan Moranis have on public health in the U.S. and globally as the CDC is considered the premium public health agency of the world?
00:13And also, as you said, Donald Trump wants to revamp the CDC and a more anti-vax stance is coming in.
00:21And that's right. And that remains to be seen. But we do believe that Jim O'Neill will be a great replacement.
00:28Look, a lot of these things turn over. A lot of agency heads turn over, especially when there's a new administration.
00:34Clearly, you can't have clashes with the president's agenda.
00:38And if there's one sticking point, which is that, you know, President Trump wants to review and perhaps get rid of vaccinations.
00:46Well, you know, and the CDC head doesn't want to comply to that.
00:50I think that's a real clash and you don't want to spend your entire administration fighting.
00:54So this might be a good move.
00:56And given that the top deputies have also left, it's now a clean house for President Trump to fill in with his right people.
01:04I know that some of the early talks, especially with RK Jr., who is the HHS head, they want to take food diets out of our foods.
01:14They want to make our crops healthy.
01:16They want to make sure that sugar is actually sugar in our sugary drinks.
01:20You know, so all those things are, you know, they're going to they're going to happen during this administration.
01:25You don't want people internally fighting you on these things.
01:28And that seems to be what the case was.
01:30So I would say give it some time and we will see how this progresses.
01:35But no doubt, this is probably a good move for all parties involved.
01:38Thank you so much.
