.... from the CDC.....

Its longtime director, Greg Burel, retired at the end of January, according to an agency spokeswoman. Adams, the deputy director, was left at the helm in an acting capacity.

And in 2018, the Trump administration shifted control of the stockpile from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to an office within the Department of Health and Human Services dedicated to emergency preparedness and response.
