Investing.com -- President Donald Trump has named Dr. Susan Monarez as his choice to lead the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The announcement was made on the Truth social media service.

Dr. Monarez brings a wealth of experience to the role, including a strong focus on innovation, transparency, and robust public health systems. She has earned a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin and underwent postdoctoral training in Microbiology and Immunology at Stanford University School of Medicine.

In addition to her academic credentials, Dr. Monarez is also recognized for her dedication as a public servant and her role as a mother. She understands the significance of safeguarding children, communities, and future generations.

The nomination comes at a time when public confidence in the CDC has been shaken due to perceived political bias and mismanagement. Dr. Monarez will join forces with the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert Kennedy Jr., to address these concerns.

Their joint mission will focus on accountability, high standards, and disease prevention. Their goal is to tackle the chronic disease epidemic and to restore the health of the nation.
