Outgoing Health Commissioner Vasan says early resignation not related to federal City Hall probes

Dr. Ashwin Vasan, New York City’s outgoing Health Commissioner, said on Thursday that his earlier-than-announced exit from the Adams administration has nothing to do with the federal investigations engulfing City Hall.

Vasan made the comments, during a Pix-11 interview on Thursday morning, following reports earlier this week that his last day leading the city Health Department will now be Friday. That means Vasan will be leaving months ahead of the early next year departure date he had announced last month.
