So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

A friend lost his USFS job yesterday. "Why am I being fired?" he asked. "Because you're disabled," his supervisor said, and explained that a whole tranche of USFS employees laid off yesterday were those hired under Schedule A noncompetitive eligibility, ie, people with disabilities.
