Operation Warp Speed leader to stay on during Biden administration

Operation Warp Speed chief scientific adviser Moncef Slaoui said he plans to continue working on the government’s vaccine accelerator during the Biden administration, reversing earlier plans to step down soon.

Slaoui said the Biden team asked him to remain on as a consultant and he accepted. However, Slaoui didn't say how long he would stay and indicated that his role could shrink in the coming weeks.
