In the past two weeks, the Trump administration spent a surprising time to restore not only the rules of the Biden administration but also the unpleasant crackdown of itself.
On the second day of the President of Donald Trump, the White House ordered the communication from the Federal Health Organization to freeze. The National Institute of Health, which is a government medical research institution, chaosMany employees were wondering if they could continue the basic functions of work, such as attending scientific meetings and reviews of subsidies. A few days later, a new note Clearly They can continue working, but they can’t say anything about it.
This week, the White House Budget Budget has released a memo to order freeze $ 1 trillion Federal government subsidies and loans were not sure if the state Medicade, hospitals, and community centers could continue operations. The administration stated that freezing would not affect the medicade, but the state administrator was closed out of the federal funding portal. Immediately, the state regained access, the judge temporarily blocked the order, and the administration was withdrawn. Memo。 (Trump’s order continues to be valid for government agencies to eliminate spending to the “waking up” ideology.)
In all of the scrambles, the administration ordered the suspension of international assistance, and medical institutions have stopped distributing HIV drugs purchased with US funds. However, even after the reversal, the clinic It was closed。
There are a lot of things to follow, even in a modest way. In some of the efforts, the Trump administration seems to have a clear set of goals. To overwhelm the opposition and deprive the government’s power. However, so far, the president’s strategy to return the United States to a more healthy version seems to have no strategy. Trump said earlier that his policy suggested that his policy, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a candidate for the Ministry of Health and Welfare, “I intend to make him healthy and eager.” 。 October. Nevertheless, during his confirmation hearing this week, Kennedy repeatedly postponed Trump. He detailed his thoughts about the regeneration agriculture (it would not fall under his scope of the Ministry of Health and Welfare), but when he quized about hot buttons such as abortioned mifepryston (yes). Is parrot the party’s line. “I will implement President Trump’s policy,” Kennedy said.
(Up to now) The stuck change is a group of policy, and removing ideas and initiatives that the president do not like rather than fix the costs and access issues that penetrate the US healthcare ecosystem. It looks focused on. Trump has issued an administrative order that requires the federal government to recognize only two gender despite decades. Biological research display That sex is It is much more complicated。 He has revived thousands of services that have been kicked out of the army because of the pandemic height refusal to the COVID-19 vaccine. He separated the United States from the World Health Organization. Because, as Trump said, it’s a tear. He extends the registration period, reconfirms compensation under existing conditions, and overturns the main reasonable prices of care methods introduced by Joe Biden, aimed at reducing insurance premiums. did. he Canceled The two Videnium guidance orders to protect the US abortions plans to re -participate in the international abortion anti -agreement Recovered Prohibition of funding to non -governmental organizations abroad that executes or promotes abortions -the election cycle is a promise to leave abortions in the state.
Trump also derails projects he had previously indicated that he might like it. He has long supported the reform of drug prices, but he Canceled Biden’s presidential order has created three new drug price models to reduce the cost of prescription drugs for Medicea and Medicade.
The decision on Kennedy’s confirmation is expected immediately next week. If he controls the government’s healthcare strategy, his actions may begin to be adjusted. Kennedy emphasizes the desire to fight chronic diseases in a confirmation hearing that it should aim to “identify toxins that contribute to chronic diseases and eliminate them.” Chronic diseases are the main causes of American diseases, disability, and death, which far exceeds food and environmental toxins.
However, in other fields of health policy, burning may continue. Kennedy seemed to be indifferent, and sometimes confused when the Senator asked him about Medicare and Medicade, which accounted for most of HHS budgets. Kennedy has also spent decades to spread the wrong information about the suspicion of vaccine, but in the first hearing he plays a “important” role in healthcare in the first hearing. Support the pediatric immunity schedule and change how to delay, delay, or how the Food Pharmaceutical Bureau reviews the vaccine. Probably the most prominent exchange is that the doctor and Louisiana Republican member Bill Cassidi are planning to relieve their parents that Kennedy and the vaccine of hepatitis B and measles do not cause autism. It happened when I asked Kennedy. “If you have data, I will do it,” Kennedy replied. But data teeth There, there. Mountain of it,, For decades。 Such basic ignorance of scientific surveys will make Kennedy fundamentally unpredictable as a person in charge of health in the United States.
The Trump administration’s current strategy has been confusing many of the government’s medical equipment. The FDA rubs the diversity of the website and is uncertain whether researchers can try to include a variety of groups in clinical trials. Government scientists, other medical providers receiving money from hospitals and federal governments do not yet know how the change in funding will affect their work. The National Science Foundation has left due to the suspension of the system impossible Pay to researchers. The administration may have a drug price setting reform and a health farm plan. However, it is difficult to see Trump’s vision for more healthy America through all of these confusion.
