Biotech News: Vivek Ramaswamy Out of DOGE

With the blizzard of news surrounding January 20, you might have missed Vivek Ramaswamy's exit from DOGE.

The Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, is still underway and much-discussed.  Originally, it was to be led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy.   Ramaswamy is a biotech executive.

I wrote a partly tongue-in-cheek blog on January 1, projecting via AI what DOGE might make of MOLDX, for example.  


Up popped headlines like, "Vivek Ramaswamy Quits DOGE," or "Everyone Wanted Him Out," or, "Musk Helped Boot Ramaswamy."
Deeper dive Jan 23 from the WSJ.

Another top DOGE staffer, attorney Bill McGinley, is also out the door - per Bloomberg here.
