Of the 4000 researchers at NIH, only 20% are tenured. They’re going to fire all the rest as their contracts come up for renewal, absolutely decimating research at the NIH. This is catastrophic, not just for Americans, but for the whole world.

On this Public Health Thank You Day, I want to thank everyone who works for a state or local health department. You are public health in America, you keep us safe and healthy. You've taken a lot of crap over the past few years, but this infectious disease epidemiologist is grateful for all you do.
