Sen. Marshall blasts CDC for not declaring emergency over fentanyl: 'What are we doing?'
Fox News
Sen. Roger Marshall asked CDC Director Rochelle Walensky why the government does not declare a public health emergency for the rising number of fentanyl deaths in the U.S.
"Probably two people, one or two people have died with monkeypox in the United States that I'm aware of. But every day, hundreds of Americans die from fentanyl poisoning. Why have you not declared this a public health emergency?" Marshall asked CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky. "Why have you not asked the administration to shut down the border where 90 percent of this fentanyl comes from?"
Walensky responded that an emergency declaration would have to come from the Health and Human Services Secretary. Sec. Xavier Becerraeclared such an emergency for monkeypox in early August. Marshall noted that Walensky could recommend that Becerra do the same for fentanyl.
