Dr. Timothy J. Pohlhaus was one of the FDA ’s few leading experts on sterile manufacturing for drugs.

He was among the thousands of FDA and other health agencies who were abruptly informed on the morning of April 1 that their services were no longer needed.

The slashing was so wide and deep that it can be hard to get a handle on just how much public health expertise was lost yesterday .

DOGE lopped off key arteries of the public health system, decimating divisions for everything from the approval of new drugs to the regulation of tobacco products.

An HHS fact sheet said that no food and drug inspectors were cut.

Front-line staff members accompanied them on inspections, helped analyze their findings, cleared their reports for public release.
