On the heels of politics, being too concerned with political correctness, and information mismanagement and omissions, it is time for CDC Director Dr. Tom Frieden to step down. As a physician with the charge of protecting America's public health he should have always put the safety of U.S.'s healthcare workers and their patients as his primary concern. Dr. Frieden has failed to upholdthis standard consistently with the Ebola Epidemic time and time again. Please sign this petition to ask President Obama and the CDC to callfor his resignation. It is time to place someone at the helm of the CDC who will place the public health of The United States as priority one.
