Following his nomination by President-elect Trump, Dr. Jay Bhattacharya stated, "We will reform American scientific institutions so that they are worthy of trust again and will deploy the fruits of excellent science to make America healthy again!" He emphasizes the importance of restoring trust in scientific institutions as part of his agenda.
The Great Barrington Declaration advocates for focused protection of vulnerable populations instead of broad lockdowns, contrasting sharply with the public health policies endorsed by former NIH director Francis Collins, who viewed it as a dangerous perspective.
Bhattacharya's nomination reflects Trump's commitment to reshaping national health leadership, as evidenced by his earlier nomination of vaccine skeptic Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to head HHS, pointing towards a significant shift in public health strategy.
Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, prominent critic of COVID-19 lockdowns, has consistently challenged the mainstream public health narrative, particularly targeting the decisions made under Dr. Anthony Fauci's leadership during the pandemic.
