Dr. Ashwin Vasan will officially step down as the city health department commissioner on Friday, citing urgent family issues as the reason for his resignation.
Despite initially planning to stay in the role until early 2025, Vasan's family matters compelled him to resign sooner, reflecting the pressures on city officials.
Dr. Michelle Morse will step in as interim commissioner, taking over during a tumultuous period for the city's administration facing federal bribery charges.
Vasan's resignation is part of a broader trend of high-ranking officials leaving their posts amid the investigations that impact other members of the mayor's administration.
