These decisions, which involve the authorization of experimental COVID-19 treatments and guidance for COVID-19 testing, should be driven solely by science and public health. Instead, it appears the Trump Administration again has allowed political interference in its scientific decision making, placing lives and livelihoods at risk across the country.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">The timing of this interference is particularly troubling, as people across the country are waiting anxiously for a safe and effective vaccine to COVID-19. More than ever, public trust in our core public health agencies must be fiercely protected. We will not beat this pandemic without that trust, and allowing political interference in these processes is harmful to the trust in our world-class scientific institutions and ultimately the health of our population. As such, the Administration\u2019s actions this week have set off alarms among experts and former leaders of these agencies. It is your responsibility, as head of the Department that researches, approves, and disseminates diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines, as well as critical information about the pandemic, to safeguard the integrity of the agencies under your control.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">This Sunday, you joined President Trump and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Stephen Hahn to announce authorization for emergency use of convalescent plasma as a treatment for COVID-19, hailing it as a \u201cdream in drug development.\u201d Many experts, including Director of the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Francis Collins, and Director of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases, Dr. Anthony Fauci, have cautioned the evidence on this therapy is not strong enough to warrant issuance of an emergency use authorization (EUA). Yet, in announcing this regulatory action, you and Commissioner Hahn made unsubstantiated claims about the efficacy of the treatment, which the Commissioner has since walked back.&nbsp;At that same press conference, the President attacked the integrity of the FDA.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">The announcement came after several senior Administration officials and the President himself issued unsubstantiated accusations, akin to conspiracy theories, that FDA\u2019s career public servants are trying to stop treatments and vaccines for COVID-19 from reaching the public. There is no evidence to support these claims, as former FDA Commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb \u2013 whom the President nominated \u2013 has made clear.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">The following day, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) quietly issued updates to its guidelines on COVID-19 testing in asymptomatic individuals exposed to the virus, recommending that such individuals may not need testing. By doing so, CDC contradicted its previous recommendation, and at this writing, the agency and Department have provided no scientific explanation for the decision. These changes raised alarm among public health experts, who called the moves \u201cpotentially dangerous\u201d because they minimize the role that asymptomatic individuals play in spreading the disease. Dr. Fauci commented he is \u201cworried it will give people the incorrect assumption that asymptomatic spread is not of great concern. In fact it is.\u201d It has been reported the decision resulted from \u201cpressure from the upper ranks of the Trump administration\u201d and that CDC \u201cwas instructed by higher-ups within the Trump administration to modify&nbsp;its coronavirus testing guidelines.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">Yesterday, CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield walked back these changes, stating that \u201ctesting may be considered for all close contacts of confirmed or probable COVID-19 patients.\u201d While we understand the science around this novel pathogen is evolving, unnecessary \u2013 and potentially political \u2013 changes to public health guidance that are not supported by evidence create confusion and may contribute to further spread and death.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">These incidents, while troubling in isolation, follow what unfortunately has become common Administration practice: political interference in scientific decision making. The Trump Administration has repeatedly interfered with scientific decisions, including the emergency authorization of hydroxychloroquine, pushing other unproven therapies, and withholding and censoring guidelines from the CDC meant to help communities re-open safely. This constant political interference is dangerous and unacceptable.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\"><i><span style=\"font-size:14.0pt\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Times New Roman&quot;,serif\"><span style=\"color:black\">We would like to better understand the role of the White House and senior political officials in the Department in the recent actions around testing guidelines and the authorization of convalescent plasma.
