CDC’s tobacco program wasn’t eliminated to save money. Federal employee salaries are only about 4% of the Federal budget. The Office on Smoking & Health was eliminated BECAUSE our work is highly efficient and cost effective. Make no mistake that tobacco companies won today.

The CDC's Office of Smoking and Health funds local and state tobacco prevention and treatment programs. 490,000 people *still* die of tobacco-related illness in the US annually. This will have enormous health consequences.

PubMed is a VITAL public health tool. This is not a niche nerdy thing. It’s how your doctor knows what chemotherapy combinations work, at what doses, for whom. It’s how biomedical researchers learn from what came before to prioritize new research directions.
PubMed has been down for at least 11 hours and we are EXTREMELY concerned. We hope it’s mere incompetence and not an official action. If any of our followers have media events today, please mention it.

Did you know that the CDC's work goes way beyond responding to outbreaks? They're also vital for tracking long-term health issues like tobacco use, which has devastating, chronic consequences.
