Not a federal employee, but a local one this applies to a large portion of us. I love my public health work.

This! Where are the forensic accountants?

Amplifying as I know some listed in places below.

I work at a site that has both an EIS Officer and PHAP. Is there any official notification being sent to sites? Anyone have a screenshot they are comfortable sharing?

As a local public health worker, I have worked with many amazing people when they helped us as EIS officers. Removing them and the crucial work they do is atrocious!

What happened to the CDC's Adult Vaccine Assessment Tool? A 404 not found error shows up when you click either language option.

Today is not the day to push your public health worker friends.

Oooof! Not ok. Are there words on the page (paper or digital)? Yes, then it's reading!

People like this are one of the real threats to women’s sports and the athletes who play them, not transgender girls and women.

Note to self for when I'm home feom work & not on my public employer's property b/c I have ethical standards to follow or risk my employment.

Look what arrived today!

It's especially 'fun' as a public employee when your state has a law requing the collection of SOGI data and the long time "state's rights party" wants to pretend some people don't exist.

Found all 3 in the wild today at the same independent bookstore! @katiebarnes.bsky.social @elysegraham.bsky.social @michaelwaters.bsky.social

Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) NIH: $39M, 977 jobs. Asks is hospitals receiving federal care must treat pregnant women in crisis. He prevaricates and acts confused. #rfkjrhearing

This whole thread, but especially this. Self care is important always and crucial now. This is a marathon and a relay one at that.

Anybody else randomly find a book at your house you started reading an unknown amount of time ago and never finished? I totally forgot it was in my headboard shelf.

I've said it before, but @teenvogue.bsky.social has great writers and coverage!

Regardless of what you may be hearing/reading, we are all human and worthy of existing. It's ok to reach out.

Amazingly researched and documented. Well done Senator Warren & staffers!

I wish I had something thoughtful or enlightening to say about this but while I am unsurprised, I am at a loss for words.

A long read but well written, extremely interesting & important. Embarrassed but unsurprised to see a retired local law enforcement officer mentioned.

New in NEJM H5N1 in humans. Let's talk about that PPE use being "suboptimal." Does that mean it's available? Available and not used? Available & not trained on use?

Tank Girl, on multiple levels. Especially if you're familiar with the source material.

Because I haven't found a lot of college hockey on here yet, I need you to know UNLV an ACHA club team beat Denver University last year's NCAA D1 champs tonight.

This is terrifying and makes me glad I live in a decentralized public health area.

No thanks.

Yes! Sesame Street helps make better people. The Post Office helps connect people and things. Those things are better than money.

So much of this! Don't forsake immunizations; get off the internet and talk to your/your child's doctor.

Public health leaders, please read! As someone who sits on a lot of job interview panels, the savior coded stuff that I hear from some recent grads (particularly those who went directly from high school to BA to MPH) is appalling.

Excellent resources list!

Saying you need help is ok. Mental health care is health care.

Not technically me, but mine that I found while cleaning.

Story of my public health worker life... I love what I do, but some days are tough!

I checked, I did find 2XL hoodies and t-shirts, size chart was buried in the item pictures and while it shows a 3xl, that size isn't for sale. The 2xl chest measurement is 49 inches. Too small for my house.

Some remote work days are harder to stay focused than others.

Yes! Does anyone have any starter packs for this?

Had an account for a minute but definitely time to freshen up & learn the ropes!
