Vivek Ramaswamy wants to ‘gut’ the FDA. His claims don’t hold up to scrutiny
Presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy recently posted a video trading on his biotech bona fides to talk about his plans to “gut” the FDA. We take a closer look.

STAT readers know Vivek Ramaswamy from his time as the founder of the biotech conglomerate Roivant — and for his role in some of its various subsidiaries and spinoffs. Of course, the world now knows Ramaswamy for a very different reason: He’s running for president, and has made the cut to participate in the first debate of the Republican primary.
Earlier this month, Ramaswamy posted a video on Twitter trading on his biotech bona fides to talk about his plans to “expose and ultimately gut” the Food and Drug Administration.
