Kim Reynolds in the early months of the coronavirus pandemic, will quit her job next month, the state's Department of Public Health announced Wednesday.

Lord Norman Fowler served as health secretary from 1981 to 1987 when AIDS was emerging as a deadly global threat. He was behind the "Don't Die Of Ignorance" campaign that included a hard-hitting film that used tombstones to drive home the threat of the virus.
