Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has fired two of his top aides, chief of staff Heather Flick Melanson and deputy chief of staff for policy Hannah Anderson.
Both the leaders were ousted only after a few months on the job, CNN reported Wednesday, citing two people familiar with the matter.
It was unclear whether there was a single triggering event that prompted the firings, the report added.
HHS did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
