#SciArt Scientific illustrator Alissa Eckert, after helping create this image & after 17-yrs. of service to the CDC here in the USA was fired. This is not normal; this is corruption. When we take back our country hopefully she'll get her job back. We're protesting everyday now, won't be much longer.
