CDC Director Walensky says agency ‘didn’t reliably deliver’ during pandemic, outlines change: ‘Learned a lot’

CDC Director Rochelle Walensky acknowledged on Tuesday that the nation’s leading public health agency fell short in its response to the COVID-19 pandemic, outlining sweeping changes that will make the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention better positioned to respond to emerging health threats in the future.

Walensky last week announced an organizational “reset” for the organization, outlining several changes she plans to implement in the coming years to rectify the CDC’s “numerous” failures throughout the COVID pandemic.
