Deborah Birx, a member of the White House working group on epidemic preparedness.
In a media interview, Birx, a member of the White House working group on epidemic preparedness, revealed that she will retire. Birx has called for family reunions on Thanksgiving to be limited to family members living with her, but she went to a three-generation reunion in Delaware, which was criticized by outsiders.
The BBC reported that Deborah Birx said the criticism she faced at the Delaware family reunion was the reason for her decision to step down.
Birx, 64, has reportedly approached U.S. President-elect Joe Biden about job opportunities.
White House spokesman Kayleigh McEnany tweeted today that President Trump wished her well and said he “has always respected Dr. Burks and liked her very much. We wish her well.
In an interview with U.S. News Newsy broadcast today, Burks did not say when she would step down, but the masked woman said she would assist the incoming Biden before retiring.
Burks, who has urged Americans to gather only with family members who live with them for Thanksgiving, traveled from Washington to her other property on Fenwick Island, Delaware, for her own family’s three-generation gathering.
While in Delaware, Berks also said in an interview with CBS that some Americans are doing it wrong by traveling on Thanksgiving, and they should assume they are infected.
