Yesterday, approximately six
months after landfall of Hurricanes Irma and Maria, Health and Human
Services (HHS) Deputy Secretary Eric Hargan traveled to Puerto Rico as
part of the Trump Administration’s continued government-wide recovery
efforts. His visit follows HHS Secretary Alex Azar’s renewal of the
Public Health Emergency for Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands, signed on
Tuesday of this week.
First in Puerto Rico, Deputy
Secretary Hargan met with Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) leadership and HHS employees
co-located at the Joint Federal Office (JFO). Here, he was briefed by
staff on the recovery process and discussed what work still needs to be
done to fulfill ongoing needs in Puerto Rico.
