Trump Fires Health Task Force Leaders

Health Secretary Kennedy fired two leaders of a health group. This group decides what free preventive care insurers must offer.
This expert group gives grades to important health prevention tools. Most insurance plans must cover \"A\" or \"B\" graded services for free.
The Secretary did not clearly say why he fired the two doctors. He later called the task force \"lackadaisical\" and wanted changes.
Some experts worried about political people replacing science experts on the panel. Important updates for cancer screenings were delayed due to these actions.
Normally, new members join the task force over time in a regular way. This sudden removal of leaders was unusual and not the standard process.
