Biden to nominate the surgeon, writer Atul Gawande to senior work in USAID

Washington: US President Joe Biden will nominate writers, surgeons and public health experts Atul Gawande to a senior global health role at the US International Development Agency, a White House official said on Tuesday.
Gawande, a writer of the four best-selling books of the New York Times and a professor at the Hospital of Brigham and Women, Harvard Medical School and Harvard Than School of Public Health, will be nominated for the Assistant Global Bureau Administrator for Global Health.
His role in USAID will focus on efforts to prevent the death of children and mothers, control the HIV / AIDS epidemic, and fight infectious diseases, such as Covid-19, the official said.
Gawande seems to take advice.
Last month, he told advanced graduates at Stanford University for “open to say things – to say yes” for new opportunities.
Gawande, a critic bluntly on the practice of Industry, was employed in 2018 by Berkshire Hathaway Inc., Inc.
Amazon.com and JPMorgan Chase & Co to Lead Haven, a shared health care company aimed at cutting costs for US employees.
But business based in Boston was short-lived and closed in February.
Gawande 2014 book, “Mortal: Medicines and what is at the end” explores the limitations and failure of the medical profession to wrestle with the reality of aging and death.
Gawande, a staff writer in New Yorker since 1998 and the MacArthur Scholarship winner, also the founder and seat Ariadne, the Center for Health System Innovation, and Lifebox, a non-profit organization that aims to carry out safer operations globally.
During the pandemic, Gawande Co-fielded Cic Health, which operates Covid-19-19-national vaccination and vaccination, and is presented at the Biden Transition Advisory Board in Covid-19.
He served as senior adviser at the Ministry of Health and Human Services during the administration of former President Bill Clinton.
