> He's a physician and an elected member of the United States Senate. He's non-practicing physician, but a practicing legislator. His job is to legislate, which includes determining the budget and operating model for the CDC. Why does a legislator feel the need to circumvent his duty regardless of his prior private area of expertise? If he truly has physician expertise that is somehow superior to that of the CDC why isn't he working to convince his legislator colleagues to direct the budget and operating model of the CDC, as opposed to trying to circumvent due process and rile up his base. I think you know the reason why.
