If true, this is really good news. Not only can Dr. Pazdur be the "adult in the room" with this crowd, but he's a world class scientist, seasoned administrator, and compassionate physician of impeachable integrity. With a proven track record at the agency. Good luck Rick 🤞🏻
The Trump administration plans to name longtime FDA oncology expert Richard Pazdur as the nation’s top drug regulator, according to three people.
And soon, it appears, he will be gone. What a horrible mess. I shudder to think of the chaos to come
Reposted by Robert S. Miller, Christina Ho
RICK PAZDUR is now planning to resign at the end of the year — three weeks after taking the job as FDA's top drug regulator.
Big shake-up after a year of turbulence at the agency.

Having served my internal medicine residency at UCSF/SFGH 1985-8 at the peak of the AIDS epidemic in SF, like many peers I was drawn to this book. How absurd and insulting the US government is not commemorating World AIDS Day today

Yikes. One in 20 in an unselected population is not a small number
