This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
I just wanted to note that the CDC Director is a Senior Executive Service position and not a presidentially nominated one, so Fitzgerald takes office immediately as of July 7. It would thus be more precise to say she was "appointed" rather than "nominated". (I have a COI so I'm being careful and not making the change myself.) John P. Sadowski (NIOSH) (talk) 17:02, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I agree. Otherwise, someone else would have approved the nomination before she assumed the Director's role. I am correcting the text. MaynardClark (talk) 19:03, 7 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Seems a bit lacking in professionalism to declare someone "disgraced" in the opening page, and to have "trump appointed" in the same sentence seemingly for no reason other than to associate her with Donald "trump" and disgrace in the same sentence. 174.255.136.194 (talk) 23:54, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
