You are a country that puts 5 year olds through live shooter drills.
A new warning by @TheLancet for the American people: the CDC is “on the brink” of collapse.
“The CDC was once the gold standard for public health leadership. Today, it is struggling to maintain scientific excellence, trustworthiness, and relevance, a result of the actions of the Trump admin and HHS that have undermined the agency.”
