“We just had word that all our fellows and post doc staff are laid off effective immediately. The famous Epidemic Intelligence Service, aka the Disease Detectives, is no more. That’s 1260 staff.

We got a message from the university to remove any use of the "DEI", "diversity", "equity", or "inclusion" from all public-facing documents. They said that even "biodiversity" is being flagged by the federal government. We live in the dumbest timeline.

Donald Trump rescinded Biden's action to lower prescription drug costs for Americans on Medicare and Medicaid.
There's no other way to spin it. That means more money out-of-pocket for seniors and families.
Big Pharma first. Ordinary people last.
