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.
