In her first all-hands meeting as the head of the CDC,\u2064 Cohen emphasized the importance of\u200c trust during a recent interview with \u2064NBC News.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We \u200bwant to protect \u2062the\u2062 health of every American. We have to first make sure that we are building trust with the American people,&#8221; Cohen stated. &#8220;And I know some\u2064 of that trust was lost in the last few years, but I\u2019m here to refocus the organization on \u2062building that\u200d trust.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Criticism and Challenges<\/h3>\n<p>Meanwhile, the CDC has faced criticism from 2024 presidential candidates on \u200cboth sides.
