US Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar stepped down from his position. Azar cited the storming of the US capitol last week as the reason behind his decision. Azar confirmed in a letter that he would step down when Democrat Joe Biden assumes office on January 20. He had referred to the US capitol violence as "an assault on our democracy and on the tradition of peaceful transitions of power."
