I’m so sorry. Be sure to report it out to NHA, who is keeping track and can help connect with your reps.

It is imperative that grantees who have been affected by the terminations reach out to their Members of Congress directly. We can help you make this contact. Fill out this form to let NHA know about the termination & get contact info for the appropriate staffers: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...
Notify NHA about grant terminations!

There is only a single staffer remaining in the White House Office of Pandemic Preparedness and Response Policy.

This report comes today alongside a new report of H7N9 avian flu among a flock in Mississippi (the first H7N9 report since 2017).

You have a right to see this file.
