HHS Spokesperson Resigns After Two Weeks in Role

Thomas Corry steps down abruptly, citing unease over leadership's handling of Texas measles outbreak.

Thomas Corry, Assistant Secretary of Public Affairs at HHS, resigned after just two weeks in the role.
Corry announced his immediate resignation on LinkedIn, wishing his colleagues success but providing no specific reason for his departure.
Reports suggest Corry clashed with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over the response to a deadly measles outbreak in Texas.
The outbreak has caused 146 infections since late January, including the first U.S. measles-related death in a decade.
Kennedy, who has previously questioned vaccine safety, recently urged the public to vaccinate, marking a shift in his stance.
