Francis in the news!
This a really nice spot on Francis Collins’ work at the NIH and serves as a great compliment to him that he is “the right man for the job” to work to eliminate Hep C as a public health measure.

NOTE
This clip does talk some about policy/bills/budgets, etc. which we normally avoid here. Please note that comments that are too partisan or political in nature will be moderated.
