The Trump administration dismissed many CDC staff members today, including everyone in the Epidemic Intelligence Service, first responders to outbreaks.
This leaves us ill prepared to contain and deal with future outbreaks.
It makes America less healthy.

The 1st year class of Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) fellows is being terminated today. We don't know the fate of 2nd years nor the future of the EIS program. CDC’s 2-yr EIS fellowship recruits talent from across the world and trains MDs, PhDs, nurses, vets, and others in field epidemiology.

This has to be Putin's master plan to literally destroy us.
We're getting pushed out of windows. The whole damned country.

Fuck the Trump administration.
Obviously as the US is intent on regressing to the Dark Ages, there will come a time to address the Black Death 💀
