Just a reminder that U.S. military personnel, whether in the National Guards or the Marines, are not trained for law enforcement.

And this question from @jamellebouie.net is not far fetched. The CDC used to collaborate closely with WHO to determine the composition of the next flu vaccine. A highly coordinated, data-driven process that involved global influenza surveillance, virological analysis, and vaccine strain selection.

On Friday night, HHS ordered CDC to take down all flu vaccine campaign materials from its website. Materials are starting to come down.

If you care about saving America from a Trump dictatorship, come to the statehouse TODAY. At 4pm, the Rhode Island House of Representatives is scheduled to vote on a resolution praising Trump. Yes, really.

BREAKING: #CDC reports it has confirmed that a child in California tested positive for #H5N1. The child had no known exposures to infected animals or poultry. The child had mild illness and is recovering.
I discuss in this video what cases like this mean, and why they are a bit unsettling.
