Scott Gottlieb Joins Face the Nation

May 10, 2026

On Face the Nation, Scott Gottlieb discussed the emerging hantavirus outbreak tied to a cruise ship and assessed the broader public health risks facing the United States. Gottlieb emphasized that the immediate risk to the general public remained low, while explaining how health officials were working to monitor exposures, quarantine potentially affected travelers, and contain further spread. He also addressed current FDA and HHS policy issues, including concerns surrounding public trust in health agencies, vaccine oversight, and the government’s handling of antidepressant-related policies, offering a measured perspective on how public health institutions should communicate during periods of uncertainty and heightened scrutiny.

As a speaker, Scott Gottlieb brings audiences a rare combination of frontline government experience, healthcare policy expertise, and clear, data-driven analysis on public health, biotech, regulation, and crisis management. Event planners can book Dr. Gottlieb through Worldwide Speakers Group for keynote presentations, moderated conversations, and executive-level health and policy briefings.
