With RFK Jr at the helm they won’t be.

Great cause for concern, and we already know 47 does not care....

Part of project 2025 plan They seem to forget they need these services/ humans / research and things as well as us poor folks

It REALLY is up to the scientific community to publically push back against these outlandish actions. I would say the death of a million or so people from COVID is proof that this is not something we need to repeat.

These cuts expose the whole US to diseases and epidemics.

Can anyone imagine JFK Jr. handling a pandemic? What a horror for everyone of us.

Sorry we call illnesses “features” now not “bugs”

mosquito

Legacy media outlets like NPR are the reason we are in this mess. The “both sides” BS & normalizing Trump is SHAMEFUL

Buckle up buttercups!

No shit…they were all fired.

It turns out putting a symbiotic brain worm in charge of US health agencies was indeed a bad idea

Hell, we're not even ready for measles, apparently.

MAY not be prepared? Hold my beer while I LMAO.

MAGA is a parasite-borne disease

“May not”? How about just “not” prepared? We’re likely screwed. 🤷🏼‍♀️

That’s by intention of this cruel, anti-science regime. Fascists prefer experimenting on human lives, not saving them.

Trump doesn’t care. He killed people during the last Pandemic.

Don’t worry - RFK is ON it. The cure? Turpentine and Windex enemas! MAGA!

What else is new? We weren’t ready the last time either

What about the one they don’t know what it is, killing people in the Congo?

This is the plan. They want most of us dead. Limited resources on a dying planet only for the super rich.

Right!?

Yeah…same

The wife and I got in huge argument, since the elected Dems are just begging for money instead of doing something physical, I think she’s right, f the Democrats and run, if they don’t give an F, I probably should just f’ing run away too. F$&@ing elected Dems just sitting around collecting money.

Very scary times ahead. What can private citizens do? I plan on getting some disinfectants that work, A supply of N95 masks, keep my car at 1/2 full as much as possible, wear masks and wash hands, remove outside shoes when I return home. I know enough to avoid birds- I usually would assist

Florida defies CDC in measles outbreak, telling parents it's fine to send unvaccinated kids to school www.cbsnews.com/news/florida...

Trump is more interested in his meme coins and renaming things and other performative nonsense and has no interest in governing or doing things to keep us safe. We are on our own.

Fauchie hurt Donald’s feelings. Thus his attack on the CDC. Simple as that.

Let’s see which one should be the 1st to go??? I nominate Donny boy. Covid didn’t take him out, hopefully the bird flu will finish the job.

Here we go again🙄

Go figure.

RFK Jr. is going to put on his super hero cape and save us all…

Hey NPR, I don't like your roll leading up to the election so some of this is your fault.

Nightmare scenario for sure. Buy your masks now.

Hope the Felon catches whatever it is first.

Maga christians don't care about lives or education as long as Krasnov, their godking rapist felon insurrectionist traitor, gives christian our free nation on a golden platter. The USA, the land of the ignorant and stupid, thank god. There's no freedom under christian rule, only oppression

Only a complete idiot wouldn’t expect negative event from such a monkey wrench being thrown in the system!

"It's only one person from China!"

Viruses are all fake news anyways. They don't actually exist. It's just a liberal myth. Prayer heals all. (this comment is satire)

And Measles

as if it made any difference to this fucking imbecile before www.cnn.com/2020/04/23/p...

Of course, they are not going to be ready. The goal is to clear the population. A pandemic would help them clear vulnerable persons.

We’re screwed 🐓

Really? They're worried? There won't be any scientists getting paid to do their jobs before long and they're WORRIED?!

Ppl: Vaxes we don't have those left right RFK Jr? RFK Jr.: Right! Go talk to Senator Cassidy he liked my lies....

I don't have to worry about being spoon fed false medical info by traitor Trumpers on how to keep pandemic illness from my door or stockpile antivirals and masks. In the 14th century, both Croatia and Italy enforced 30 and 40 day bans on entry from plague infested areas.

Y'think?

No shit, Sherlock! You should write for Tim Onion

These clowns will sequester themselves away from the rest of us. Under his first falled administration, 400k+ Americans died of Covid due to his negligence, ignorance and malice. He has blood on his hands, and it's happening all over again. Wait till the Avian Flu becomes air borne. MFers won't care

Just ask the rest of the developed world if they want to give up their universal healthcare. They will all say no, including me, covered by our National Health Service here in England.

Here we go . . . 😡

We have a chance to stop the Bellini Mussolini in the 3 special elections coming up for control of the US House! DONATE to FL- 6 Josh Weil (www.joshweil.us), FL-1 Gay Valmont (gayforcongress.com) and NY-21 Blake Gendebien (blakegendebienforcongress.com) DONATE to TAKE BACK THE HOUSE! STOP KRASNOV!

Well the pandemic made Bezos and others even wealthier

LOL

Well, duh.

Duh-- look at how all GOP voted to confirm Kennedy and how CDC etc are banned from communicating under dictator Trump and how Musk eliminated so many important health workers

They will be too busy dealing with measles to worry about all those new diseases.

Trump must be impeached and removed from office now! SignThePetition2 impeachTrumpNow @ tinyurl.com/3te2v3sj Then Go2theGlobal NonviolentActionDatabase@ nvdatabase.swarthmore.edu orReadTheBook" WhyCivil ResistanceWorks," Chenoweth&Stephan.ThenGo2 Mobilize.us 2join orOrganizeAlocal group2resist.

Yes! There is always so much we can all do! The resistance is all of us doing something a little bit at a time, but together. thepoisonpen1605.substack.com/p/2?r=58dudx

Trump only killed a million Americans in his first term. He can do better.

We're so fucked if there's another pandemic.

It won’t be.

a very definite fear we all should have, everyone

This is an underplaying of the issues. Of course they are not ready when they have lost key staff and the remaining staff don't know what is coming next. Pandemic and outbreak preparedness means you do the work in ADVANCE to be ready to deploy. You think this administration is gonna let them prep?

Trump pandemic 2.0. Stock up on those N 95s

… Watcha …

Does anyone know why so many right wingers believe the CDC is “extremely corrupt”? They can’t say how/in what way, they just say “everyone know they are most corrupt agency.” I am so fascinated to learn what is behind this belief.

Let's revoke Elon Musk's American citizenship! There is overwhelming evidence that he has no respect for our Constitution, our country, and our people. He doesn't deserve to be American! chng.it/yVwGnDCqCR

Yeah, what a shock

And the CDC is a metaphor for all government departments.

It's beyond beyond being "not ready," it's poised to actively worsen any threat.

We’re on our own. Check out your state dept of health and get info from Canadian Public Health Service

What does Elon think this will accomplish?!

This is how Trump will be able to deny another pandemic. He’s deleting the proof.

Little soft, NPR

No longer a question of "may not"

Have you looked at what the GOP budget wants to do to the debt, all in service of transferring our money to Elon and his rich asshole friends? Get informed or STFU

… and an Ebola-like disease has just been discovered in the Congo that kills in 48 hours. Arose from eating bats.

Yeah no shit, good luck America

Wait. I’ve already seen this one. It’s not good.

F U C K M U S K F U C K T R U M P F U C K T R U M P E R S

Sadly, this is a feature, not a bug.

No worries, Trump ordered that Bird Flu does not exist. We're good. #sarcasm

If covid was bad with our "good" system, I'm worried for what a future outbreak of even a standard flu could look like.

My perennial question on all these #MuskMAGAmoves: Who benefits?

Uneducated? Net Educated persuing RFK Promised Flock Immunity.

Eggzactly!! There needs to be some education to change that. A public campaign. Or we will be a chickenless world. I love my backyard birds, and eventually they will be affected.

COVID2.0

2/2 “Three out of the 20 port health stations now have no CDC staff and half have no officer in charge, according to a current CDC employee, who's not authorized to speak publicly.” #publichealth

"may not be"

Ya think?????

No kidding

Here we go again thanks to the new regime! As if Covid wasn’t bad enough. How do we protect ourselves from this upcoming pandemic?

May not???? How could they be ready?

The doctors and scientists have been replaced by JFK jr. #FrlonPresidrnt withdrew our nation from The World Health Organization. God help us.

I have called them the death cult since 1 Million of the MAGAts fell for injecting bleach and a strong flashlight up your ass1

Are you happy living in a constant state of irrational fear? The sky is falling? Let NPR worry, but you don’t have to. We shouldn’t support this kind of “journalism“ which is truthfully just irresponsible speculation. Have faith in humanity that we can solve the real problems when we need to.

Ya think????!!!!!

Let's bright-side this news: We already know who won't seek out vaccinations, who'll spurn masks, who'll refuse to isolate, and who's most likely not to survive. Is anyone going to miss them? Let's go, Q226L. Bring on the evolution!!

@npr.org then they country can deal with the aftermath. They don't want to get vaccinated; they can suffer. Just have the refrigerated trucks ready. You got a dress rehearsal with COVID.

As a tick borne sufferer this is not good .

Repukes, still trying to cull their own herd. Go for it. . .

Ya think?

People are gonna die.

Here we go again. Wait till the Chinese let loose a biological terrorist attack. The Republicans are a disaster.

After their Covid response, it's time to clean house there and start new.

Yep. Here we go........

Not to mention the newest covid

I think it’s the height of stupidity for a very small, un-scientifically trained group of people to push highly researched medical information out the window, and pretend for one second that their opinions are of any value to Americans. People will start dying in 3, 2, 1……..

The next pandemic(s) In the making
