'Fenton joined the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in 2005, initially as director of the National Syphilis Elimination Effort, then director of the National Center for HIV, STD, and TB Prevention, renamed the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention in 2007. In 2011 and 2012, Fenton appeared on The Root's "The Root 100" list of "black achievers and influencers between the ages of 25 and 45". Fenton left CDC, and the US, in 2012 to join the new English national public health body, Public Health England, as head of its directorate of health improvement and population healthcare, renamed health and wellbeing shortly before April 2013's official commencement of the organisation. As of 2015, Fenton was paid a salary of between £175,000 and £179,999 by the department, making him one of the 328 most highly paid people in the British public sector at that time. In February 2017, he was announced as Southwark Council's new Director of Health and Wellbeing, working on secondment from Public Health England. As of 2020, Fenton is Public Health England's Regional Director of Public Health for London.' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kevin_Fenton |
