Dr. Erica Schwartz, Trump's nominee for CDC director,
is expected to have a confirmation hearing before the Senate Health Committee this month.
Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont is a ranking member.
He recently released more than 250 pages of internal emails provided by Dr. Deb Howery, a top CDC official who quit last August.
They show CDC career scientists pushing back against changes to vaccine policies requested by Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
and his political appointees.
Dr. Dimitri Deskalakis, a former CDC official who quit with Howery, says he sought to document the conflicts of interest and anti-science moves he saw.
A new CDC director would have to navigate layers of political reviews now required at the agency.
