Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky is leaving her post in June, according to a report from Just The News; President Biden made the announcement:
Dr. Walensky has saved lives with her steadfast and unwavering focus on the health of every American. As Director of the CDC, she led a complex organization on the frontlines of a once-in-a-generation pandemic with honesty and integrity. She marshaled our finest scientists and public health experts to turn the tide on the urgent crises we’ve faced.
Dr. Walensky leaves CDC a stronger institution, better positioned to confront health threats and protect Americans. We have all benefited from her service and dedication to public health, and I wish her the best in her next chapter.

Walensky has led the agency for roughly two-and-a-half years and has led the country through a series of major health matters including the COVID-19 pandemic. The administration is set to end the public health emergency on the pandemic next week.
