JD Vance on Putin: "He's more soft spoken than you'd necessarily expect. The American media has a particular image of him. He's soft spoken in a certain way. He's very deliberate, he's very careful. Fundamentally, he's a person who looks out for the interests as he sees it of Russia."

APHA comments on shooting at CDC. Read full statement online:
www.apha.org/news-and-med...
Reports of the shooter’s alleged motive are very concerning and highlight the inherent danger and human cost of disinformation surrounding life-saving vaccines and other evidence-based protections. As we wait to learn more, we must emphasize that disinformation negatively affects our health and makes us less safe. Let us ensure this attack on the CDC, a beacon for science and knowledge, is a rallying point for support for this critical institution and all those who dedicate their lives to improving our health. And let us make the death of the officer, who was rushing to protect people, a reminder of the terrible epidemic of gun violence that continues to threaten communities across the nation.
