Contributing sentiments towards policy:

48% : Kennedy has made sweeping changes to vaccine policies since taking office this year, including firing its entire expert vaccine advisory panel and replacing them with like-minded anti-vaccine activists and other hand-picked advisers.
30% : Monarez is one of at least three Senate-confirmed regulatory officials Trump has moved to fire in recent days, including Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook and Surface Transportation Board member Robert Primus.
28% : Since taking office in January, Trump has wrested control over U.S. government agencies long seen as independent from presidential politics as they oversee such matters as elections, stock markets and labor unrest.
23% : The three top CDC officials who quit after Monarez's dismissal told Reuters on Thursday they too had resigned over anti-vaccine policies and misinformation pushed by Kennedy and his team.
