"Paco: we dont know but a lot. From the story I linked to: Overall the White House is expected to cut between 1100 and 1200 employees at the Department of Health and Human Services though its not yet clear how many will come from the CDC. HHS hasnt released official numbers on the cuts but most anecdotal reports related to health agency firings have centered around the CDC. The American Federation of Government Employees has challenged previous firings of federal workers and said Friday in a social media post that it was filing a lawsuit in response to overall government firings. AFGE did not"

"Well. I have the absolute best news for fans of @statnews. Quite simply: @damiangarde is returning. Damian will be working with me on STAT's events including our Summits.

Damian's one of the most fluid and creative writers I have ever worked with and he knows the biopharma industry like few others.

"Have you been wondering how the FDA came to ask $GSK to file to have leucovorin approved for some types of autism The details of that decision -- the director of the FDA's drug division negotiated a tense bargan with agency staff -- are only the start of this important piece from my colleague @LizzyLaw_ .

"I just want to emphasize: This is not normal. This is unprecedented. And it is chaos. This morning my colleagues -- who are working quite hard -- reported that the White House had decimated CDC offices related to injury prevention respiratory disease surveillance and chronic disease as well of all the staff that edit the CDC's MMWR one of the most important medical journals. Now some of those cuts are being walked back but HHS won't even speak on the record. I have been a reporter who has covered health care and medicine for XX years and this does not match with anything I remember seeing."

"But this appears to misrepresent Cantwell's chart (taken from Statista and the CDC). The secretary rightly points out that infectious disease deaths were much higher when medicine nutrition and hygiene were much more primitive. There's no doubt about that But Cantwell's chart does not use numbers from say 1900 when those things were more primitive. Look at the slide screen-captured here: It gives measles cases as 530000; That's about the number of cases as when measles vaccine became available. Yes hygiene had a big effect But what got rid of those cases -- and the XXX so deaths a year -- was"
