A lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the PREP Act would surely affect the Secretary of Health and Human Services. I don't know if that qualifies as affecting a public minister, but I don't know why it couldn't.

Even if being a diplomat is sufficient for being "minister" (and that link doesn't say that it is), that doesn't make it necessary. "Minister" seems interchangeable with "secretary" to me, or at least as much so as "diplomat." And "affecting" could be extended to mean just about anything.
