If confirmed by the Senate, Dr. Monarez, an infectious-disease researcher, will be the first nonphysician to lead the agency in more than 50 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cAmericans have lost confidence in the C.D.C. due to political bias and disastrous mismanagement,\u201d the president wrote on TruthSocial, adding that Dr. Monarez would work with the health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to address the chronic disease epidemic and restore the agency\u2019s accountability.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cAs an incredible mother and dedicated public servant, Dr. Monarez understands the importance of protecting our children, our communities, and our future,\u201d Mr. Trump wrote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Monarez assumed the acting director position a few days after Mr. Trump took office in January, leaving her perch as deputy director of a new federal biomedical research agency created during the Biden administration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Monarez was expected to serve until Mr. Trump\u2019s first choice for the job, Dr. Weldon, could be confirmed. But after Mr. Trump <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/13\/health\/cdc-weldon-confirmation-hearing.html\" title=\"\">decided to withdraw<\/a> the nomination, Republican aides in the Senate said that Dr. Weldon had failed to impress them with a plan for the agency.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Dr. Weldon blamed two Republican senators \u2014 Susan Collins of Maine and Bill Cassidy of Louisiana \u2014 for turning against him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Some experts said Dr. Monarez would be an improvement over Dr. Weldon, whose views on childhood vaccines aligned with those of Mr. Kennedy and raised alarm in the medical community.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cShe has a strong reputation as a solid researcher and expert in infectious diseases,\u201d said Dr. Georges Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cShe clearly understands public health and the role governmental public health plays,\u201d he said. \u201cI believe the public health community can work with her in a positive manner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But Dr. Monarez has spent weeks away from Atlanta, where the agency is headquartered. She has not attended the agency\u2019s all-hands meetings or offered reassurance to employees unsettled by the tumult of the past weeks, according to several C.D.C. employees who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of retaliation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A comment section on the agency\u2019s internal website was quickly deleted after staff members began to note that they wanted more communication from her.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Center directors have been interpreting the president\u2019s executive orders and various court instructions with little input from the director, the officials said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Instead, the acting director\u2019s office has served as a conduit for directives from the White House and the Department of Health and Human Services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">For example, she has been working with the cost-cutting initiative known as the Department of Governmental Efficiency to plan reductions to the agency, according to a former official with knowledge of the matter.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">And when the Trump administration ordered the C.D.C. to take down pages from its website containing phrases like \u201cL.G.B.T.Q.\u201d and \u201ctransgender,\u201d Dr. Monarez did not resist nor attempt to preserve important data, according to three people with knowledge of the events.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside
