Nooooo!! I cannot find this to clarify. Is it "lack of money" or just "we don't care"?

OMG! I really wouldn't take on Janet Mills like that. I am shocked at the disrespect shown to Mainers by this person. She stands strong!

I present to you all the notice that now is displayed on the CDC HIV prevention page. Again - In these times, find a healthcare provider you trust, who follows evidence based practice grounded in science. Follow trusted sources of information.

EIS class 93. What an insane group to cut. Immigrants and EIS officers -- all the worker bees.

YES!! I want to see Walz, AOC, Buttigieg, Sanders, Newsom, Harris, on and on... the deep bench showing up and telling the stories.

Have you seen this one re DOGGY? Is it "real" or an insider support group? dogegov.com

Musk is rumored to spend $40M on Super Bowl ads with his wildly distorted claims attacking USAID. Don’t believe them. The last round are debunked below. wapo.st/3ErHBZM And I'll unpack the reality in this 🧵, too. 1/13

When communicating about the function of the NIH/NSF using $s is not a great strategy. Nor is using the word “indirect costs.” Success stories are a good start, & people need to see the broad ripple effects of these institutions.

This sucks. One of the best public health communications people and strategies from CDC aka Your Local Epidemiologist. Her local newsletter used for the public all across the US. :(

This strategy - "meet people where they are" is core to Public Health program delivery. It costs more money than sitting in an office waiting for people to come to you. It works better too.

“Once a reporter asked, "Do you really think you are going to change the policies of this country by standing out here alone at night in front of the White House with a candle?" A.J. Muste, the activist replied: "Oh I don't do this to change the country. I do this so the country won't change me.”

This is perfect and worth wearing as a placard at Town meeting or pinning on top of a community discussion board.
