BREAKING: President Trump has tapped Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead the DOGE — Department of Government Efficiency.
Their mission will be to "dismantle government bureaucracy, slash excess regulations, cut wasteful expenditures, and restructure Federal Agencies." President Trump believes the DOGE could become "The Manhattan Project of our time."
ELON MUSK: "This will send shockwaves through the system, and anyone involved in Government waste, which is a lot of people!"
The DOGE will provide advice and guidance from outside the government. Congratulations to @elonmusk and @VivekGRamaswamy!!

Important thread: @EricTopol was a bit skeptical about the bivalent when it rolled out. His detailed review of emerging lab & clinical data has convinced him that it truly represents a life-saving advance.
