I applaud workers at the CDC for standing up against Sec. Kennedy’s dangerous anti-vaccine crusade.
We are witnessing a full-blown war on public health from the Trump Administration.
History will not look kindly on those who stayed silent in the face of this assault on science.

AFL Model would currently be top of the Squiggle leaderboard for both bits and MAE if I'd have annoyed @squiggle.au enough to put it on there, maybe next year

Over the next four years, if these absolutely staggering numbers hold, Elon Musk would be responsible for roughly 13 million deaths, or two Holocausts and change. Genuinely monstrous actions
The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought:
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB

Killing children is by design, I'm afraid. "Pro-natalists" like Musk claim they aren't racist, but their pressure to have children is solely focused on white women, while they back policies that literally kill of non-white children.
He's a eugenicist.

Elon Musk and Donald Trump’s dismantling of USAID will lead to millions of preventable deaths.
The decision of the richest person in the world to destroy an agency that delivers life-saving aid to the poorest people on the planet is unconscionable.
