Vinay Prasad: Fired, Rehired, Repeat—FDA’s Favorite Soap Opera
Vinay Prasad's career at the FDA is starting to look like a soap opera with bad ratings. Just weeks after being suddenly dismissed, he has astonishingly returned to a top FDA role. The article notes the 'abrupt dismissal' and subsequent comeback, suggesting the FDA might as well rename their HR department to 'The Wheel of Fortune.' It's like that one friend who keeps getting kicked out of a party only to sneak right back in—except this time, it's got national health implications.

Fired, rehired, repeat—Vinay Prasad's FDA career arc is the workplace equivalent of a boomerang with serious commitment issues. Weâre all terrible drivers of our own lives, but this ride’s more like bumper cars.
Looks like FDA’s favorite sitcom just got renewed: 'Back Door Job: The Vinay Prasad Chronicles.' Tune in for the thrilling return of 'Wait, what?'
