The CDC and FDA are endangering the availability and affordability of next year's flu vaccine - which could cost lives. Wouldn't it be great if lots of people called 800-232-4636 (docket CDC-2025-0003) to say they want their families and communities protected? www.bostonglobe.com/2025/03/05/o... - ThreadSky

Thanks for posting this info. Made the call which took about 5 minutes... a person on the other end. It's an info line.

Kimberly, I called the 800 number which connects to CDC Info. The agent was very diligent in recording my message, informed me she was a contractor, & said she'd pass my msg on to CDC. I hope that's true. Could you please gift your Boston Globe article so we can read it? Thanks!

I called, got a great rep who looked up what to do. Unfortunately, working through the website link she sent, there’s no place to leave public comment - as the meeting didn’t happen by 2/28 and the window for comments has closed.

Other ideas? Where did you email, Kim?

I will call today! I want our flu shots for fall. No reason to be ill or die. This is insanity. Is 🦧 trying to kill people?

Republicans are gutting the CDC and FDA anyway so these calls are falling on deaf (fired) ears

I called. It was a maddening experience. The person I spoke to did not seem to understand what I was talking about and then put me on hold after we talked in circles for several minutes. Not giving up, though!

Ugh called and was directed to the public comment website, which is closed. The rep was very nice, and I left her a good survey review. HOPE SHE GETS TO KEEP HER JOB.
