Even on the hardest days, ya gotta find joy and silliness. What pathogen would you dress up as? Tonight, I'm feeling a little spirochete action. (The Lyme one! Get your mind out of the gutter 😜)

I have a message to the staff at CDC who have dedicated their careers to protecting Americans from health threats of all kinds: Thank you. Your courage and dedication have improved or saved the lives of people who may not even know it. We’re with you.

Wow. I guess not caring what a bully says about you makes an impact on the people you respect and love. Thanks @firedbutfighting.bsky.social firedbutfighting.org/shop/p/daska...

Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), top Dem on the Senate health committee, on this evening's chaos at CDC: “We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired."

Enough is enough – CDC Director Dr. Monarez chose science over politics. Vaccines save lives—people should not be fired, forced to resign, or shot at, for saying so. We stand firmly with Dr. Monarez, with CDC colleagues, and with all public health workers who refuse to compromise truth for politics
