The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is set to cut approximately 10,000 jobs in a significant reorganization aimed at transforming the agency. Under the leadership of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., these layoffs are part of a broader initiative to streamline operations and reduce costs, with projected savings of $1.8 billion annually. The restructuring plan, described as necessary for making America healthy again, will impact various public health agencies. The Trump administration previously announced similar reductions, focusing on a total of 20,000 job cuts across federal health departments. As HHS proceeds with its overhaul, it faces criticism and concern regarding the potential implications for public health services.
