Health Sector Faces a Wave of Doubt

Right now, the health sector feels doubtful. People are not convinced that Heidi Overton will become the next FDA commissioner. Most expectations lean toward no. A small number of voices are less certain, but the overall mood is skeptical. Could anything change this picture?

At the same time, there is little belief that the FDA will move a drug benchmark to a new category on the Bulk Drug Substances List. Folks also think a plague case in the United States is unlikely. Questions about a lab leak at Anthropic meet the same wall of doubt. None of these ideas appear to be strengthening. The conversation keeps returning to the same conclusion.
