President Donald Trump's administration is considering replacing its secretary of Health and Human Services, Alex Azar, 52, because of early missteps in the handling of the coronavirus pandemic, the Wall Street Journal and Politico reported on Saturday.
The Journal, which cited six people familiar with the discussions, said frustration with Azar was growing but the administration was reluctant to make big changes while the country was seeking to stop the virus, which causes the respiratory disease COVID-19 and has killed more than 53,000 people in the United States.
A White House spokesman, Judd Deere, denied it and said the HHS under Azar continues to lead on a number of the president's priorities.

Scapegoat
Bug Bye!
Truth to power has no home in this White House
Keep in mind who hired him.
The visual is very bad that so many hired are now or have been let go.
Azar is nothing more than a big pharma groupie. He like so many others were in it for the money and got his ass handed to him when it actually came time to do any work other than ripping off the American public with outrageous prescription cost
Replace Trump.
Trumps statements that there were plenty of tests and that anyone who wanted a test could have it were more of his departures from the truth. He couldn't tolerate public knowledge of deficiencies in supplies. It has to look as if he were misinformed instead of that he has little respect for facts. Somebody has to take the blame.
Azar is a prime example of what's wrong with the system. An Ivy league school graduate enabling him to form "relationships" to eventually manipulate our system. Someone please show me ONE big pharma CEO that ever had anything but greed and profit driving them!!
If you do not appreciate the Donald you are eventually fired OR you will not get your ventilators
