特朗普政府今天削弱了美国卫生机构🙁

Public health agency gag order in US.
On Tuesday, the Trump Administration ordered all federal public health officials to refrain from external communications. Gag order apparently includes:
· Scientific reports. Example: The CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report(where I myself have published data in collaboration with the CDC). The MMWR often brings up-to-date information on outbreaks, like H5N1 bird flu.
· Health advisories. Example: If there were a salmonella outbreak or food recall, the FDA would not be permitted to communicate that (albeit, there may be exceptions.)
· Updates to websites, including public data.
· Updates on social media.
Also learned that the NIH has been told to halt the process that approves funding for new scientific & medical research—research that makes US innovation & leadership in medicine the envy of the world. Other major activities also stopped.
There’s more. Sigh! A tough day for us here. Send good thoughts!
