It's this kind of weaponized incompetence from the trump regime that's really the most insidious. Sure, half might be hired back but the burnout of "you've spent your life learning and doing this, and we can fire you in 5 minutes." Is a cruel, stupid, and tiring power move.
Staff with the CDC’s institutional review board … were also let go.
In the next 30 days, some science protocols will be up for renewal by the institutional review board.
“They’ll have to be shut down,” Houry said.

Congrats to all the protestors all around the country yesterday for really showing up and showing out! The signs were fantastic, the inclusion of people from every walk of life was great, and it was great to see folks be so unified and accomodating to each other while standing against this madness.

The trailblazing transgender rights activist Miss Major has passed away at the age of 78.
Miss Major was a lifelong organizer and participant in the ballroom scene. She took part in the 1969 Stonewall Riots and was injured by the police — but she kept fighting.

COVID is hitting pretty hard already this year, with Flu and RSV well on their way. Every year since 2020 has been hell for emergency departments and peds floors. I cannot imagine how it'll be by the holiday season this year.
In case you’re wondering, it’s barely fall & our children’s hospital is already almost always full with kids boarding in the ER.
And the pediatric workforce is stretched thin.
Our system does not have the capacity to care for the influx of vaccine preventable diseases that is coming.

This shouldn't really come as a surprise, but even for the party of "facts and logic", claiming talking points that would get them laughed out of a 5th grade classroom is really low.

It is absolutely crazy to be building a software that requires accurate weather forecasting data, only to find out NOAA said months ago staffing cuts were so deep that forecast and measurement data is likely to be a bit screwy going forward.

In a lot of ways, medical provider resistance to mask wearing parallels its previous resistance to hand washing. There was controversy around handwashing that boiled down to ego. "How dare you imply I am impure or filthy, now excuse me as I deliver a baby with another patients blood on my hands."
When you get a vaccine or a medical checkup, we expect the healthcare worker to wash their hands and wear gloves.
We should think the same about wearing masks in medical settings. Viruses can spread pre-symptomatically; masks are another effective infection control measure.

Would there be interest in articles that summarize policy decisions, determine how based in reality they are, and what local communities can do to empower themselves with or against them?

It's nearly like that classic saying:
"Hard times make for strong people,
Strong people make for good times,
Good times make for weak people,
Weak people make for hard times"
Just with less militarism and glorification, and way more needless COVID/Measles deaths.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.

I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries.
These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!
