Her letter to staff, released by the California Health and Human Services Agency, did not give a specific reason for her departure.
Dr. Sonia Angell said in a resignation letter made public late Sunday that she's departing from her role as director and state public health officer at the California Department of Public Health.
In a statement, Newsom thanked Angell"for her service to the state and her work to help steer our public health system during this global pandemic, while never losing sight of the importance of health equity.” Angell's announcement comes after California Health and Human Services Secretary Dr. Mark Ghaly said the test results glitch caused up to 300,000 records to be backlogged, though not all were coronavirus cases and some could be duplicates. The problem affected the California Reportable Disease Information Exchange, which is also known as CalREDIE.
