When RFK and the CDC researched the root cause of autism, they’re studies focused squarely on people who purchased cryptocurrency and read about it on Reddit

Last night I learned from 2025 CDC statistics that the average American woman over 20 is 5’3” and 170lbs. Like holy fuck America

Where are you getting this information from? Really? I've worked at NIH, FDA, and the CDC and I don't have a clue where you are getting this information from in the slightest. Dr. Eric works in Neuroscience, yes but the SEP meetings are public information and not classified. Why would this one be? All this talk about websites, warchests and "greek handshakes" sounds like bullshit to me. Oh, and I'm long on SLS since 2024 so I would love nothing more for this BO, strategic partnership to happen but what I don't care for is making up hocus pocus horseshit, when the ticker doesn't need it. It gives some type of crazy "pumper" vibes that don't help the cause. Provide proof or STFU already with this fictional rhetoric.

COVID was clearly engineered and a laboratory accident, Wuhan is 3000km away from the Yunnan caves where those SARS-like viruses circulate. And the Wuhan Institute of Virology is the most famous molecular biology/virology research lab on those particular viruses, and they have been sampling the caves and publishing research on those viruses for years with famously lacking biosafety measures. The response of the Chinese CDC, trying to hide what was happening at the beginning of the pandemic, and the fact that it started just where the lab is, suggest a gigantic blunder rather than a voluntary release. on the other hand Nipah in India, like Ebola or Marburg in Africa, is a bat virus that circulates exactly where the outbreak occurred. It was just a matter of time before somebody caught it by close contact with bats in a very densely populated area.

derprondo

With all the shit going down with the CDC, you really have to wonder if they're actually trying to thin the heard here. Whatever their intentions are, it can't be good, and if it's not intentional then it's just completely gourded up.

ViriditasBiologia

Like it or not they represent us on the global state now, when people think of America they will think of that, not of the CDC or WHO work that helped eradicate smallpox or the countless lives spent combatting hemorrhagic fevers. That's what happens when you let a bunch of regarded morons hijack your country.

bannedbutbackbenis

US no longer a part of WHO. This place is getting better and better. Oh and the CDC says flu shots are pointless 🥳

Voltthrower69

The US just exited the WHO. This country is such a fucking mess ave we still have 3 more years. The RFK jr appointee at the CDC said losing status of eradication of measles is just the cost of doing business..

ep1032

I appreciate the work you did here! A couple of mistakes though. The realignment of the Democratic and Republican political parties really started somewhere around the ~1920s and didn't really ossify until ~1960. So blaming either current political party for anything before ~60 misunderstands the fact that the modern parties are very different organizations ideologically than they were before ~1960. They weren't the same parties, even if they share the same names. The 1970s crash was very much the result of modern liberal keynesian economics, yes. But at that point, the modern Republican party didn't really exist yet. It was this crash that allowed the Goldwater revolution to give birth to the modern Republican party. So again, this crash doesn't really make sense to blame on one party or the other, given that only one of the two modern parties existed at the time. The 1980s crash was the first time we see modern Republican ideology applied to economics. If we wanted to blame either party here, we are now solidly in a period of modern Republican control, but that doesn't feel fair to the Republican party. It is more fair to say that this crash was more aftershocks from the turbulent 1970s, ie: not countable for the same reasons we can't use the 1970s crash in this analysis. Okay, but by 1990s, we firmly have both American parties in their current, modern orientation, right? Yup. So using your list, we have the 2001 crash. Both the 2001 and 2008 crash were the result of increased deregulation in the market, or the direct result of rollbacks of previously existing liberal regulations of the market that were designed to prevent bubbles and crashes such as these. Why were such regulations prevented or rolledback? Because Clinton saw that the modern Republican Party was ascendant, and he moved the Democratic party to be in line with their ideas, in order to not lose big-money donor sources. So both of these crashes are the result of politicians in the Democratic and Republican party (wait for it), enacting Republican ideology. Covid crash was a completely unpredictable, unpreventable, exogenous event, in so far as Trump fired or ignored everyone in the CDC and CDC Chinese office, CIA pandamic forecasters, and Obama's international pandemic team before the plague started, and then told everyone it was an exogeneous event once it happened. Nevermind the meetings he held with Kushner where they determined that more Democratic voters would be killed by election day than Republicans so they didn't need to take action in the early stages. No, the Republican Party gets to own this pandemic, and the crash it created. If they had tried their best to mitigate it and failed, then we could give them the benefit of the doubt, but they did the opposite. So three crashes within the modern political party orientation, all of which were either directly overseen or the result of modern Republican ideology.

KingOfTheQuails

as someone who has spent my career in biopharma/biotech. Do you yourself a favor and don’t try to invest. Just by the way you’ve worded this question shows you have no business doing so (it isn’t a single patent cliff…each asset has its own IP). But to answer your question, yes pharma companies will fill their pipeline ahead of loss of exclusivity via M&A activity. I invest here but only in therapeutic areas I am VERY familiar with and feel (and it’s still hit and miss) I don’t mean to come off rude and hope I didn’t, just trying to tell you that there are so many better industries to invest in. To be successful in this space you need a lot more knowledge than corporate valuation (regulatory, IP, clinical, commercialization, payer, etc). And even if you get everything right, the FDA (CDER/CBER) or CDC and destroy a product unilaterally

Ok_Cry7572

Why is no one talking about the danger of EMF radiation We’re surrounded by EMF radiation constantly, phones,WiFi,5G towers, power lines but no one really talks about what it’s doing to us. A UC Berkeley study found that just 17 minutes a day on a phone for 10 years increases brain cancer risk by 60% The CDC has even linked EMFs to two types of brain tumors. Other studies show EMFs disrupt hormones, damage DNA, and cause oxidative stress which accelerates aging and leads to chronic health issues. The craziest part? The telecom industry spends over $130 million a year lobbying to keep this quiet. The government even stopped funding research on EMF dangers back in the ‘90s. Its not like we can avoid EMFs. Even if you don’t use WiFi your neighbors do. Even if you don’t own a phone, youre still getting hit by signals from satellites, smart meters, and cell towers. I

pedrocas_drocas

First of all I told you of metrics on healthcare availability which is just about the only thing the president can directly influence and Trump has influenced it negatively. Ignoring that healthcare availability is important when discussing "healthcare quality" is disingenuous and the negative effect on it by Trump is simply a fact The decline in measles vaccination is definitely tied to the increase in anti vax sentiment and the people getting infected are people who are unvaccinated. Idk what you could possibly be referring to with Democrats lying about the Covid vaccine but it feels like guilt shifting to the 'other side' (in case this isn't clear btw the covid 19 vaccine is safe) RFK is definitely an anti vaxxer with multiple interviews over the years claiming anti vax viewpoints and rhetoric. Even more interesting are his actions to cut vaccine research spending (500 million in mRNA vaccine researching cut by him) and firing the whole CDC Vaccine Advisory panel, which was made up by a bunch of respected scientists, with a small number of people, all with a history of anti vax views. RFK jr has done nothing to improve healthcare and dozens of medical professionals have called for his resignation because a lot of his policy changes have undermined science based policies. The warning signs by the professionals are there, heard immunity on measles is fucked too and Trump appointed him so yes they are both to blame

m0nk_3y_gw

I don't like GWB, but he clearly had enough brains to staff up CDC China. We all knew Trump 1.0 was a pedo. Good on your for getting your rocks off to that.

m0nk_3y_gw

> Trump 1.0 being a universally despised goober running around spouting weird shit and accomplishing none of it Trump 1.0 deported a Detroit diabetic to Iraq, a country where he didn't speak the language or know anyone, where he died on the street like a dog because he didn't have access to insulin. https://www.google.com/search?q=Jimmy+Aldaoud Trump 1.0 separated children from their families in camps with no tracking or plans to reunite them with their families. Trump 1.0 gutted CDC China from 48 people down to a skeleton crew. GWB and Obama staffed it up because they knew China had issues with identifying and containing break outs. Trump 1.0 whitehouse was briefed by the US military that something was going down in Wuhan, because spy satellites showed that that hospital parking lots were filling up. If GWB was president it could have contained before it left China and we'd barely remember it like the Bird flu outbreaks 20+ years ago. Fuck anyone that thinks that was "awesome to watch"

gummi_eater

Me neither. Specifically the CDC with how they handled covid in 2020. Lied to our faces.

Wizz0g

It's almost like that when one party continuously expands the bounds of politics/partisan politics, political views end up being discussed in more places. 20 years ago the post office wasn't a political issue. Neither was the Fed, The CDC, whether or not our economic data was correct- the list goes on. Now you have to listen to political commentary in the stocks subreddit because the president is personally meddling in our national economic data :)

ChronicMasterBlazer

Thing is TLRY has consolidated their shares and has been beaten down a lot more than CGC since the October highs so logic would have it that TLRY is going to run, squeeze, and meme harder. Good luck with your play though. CDC has been performing very nicely.

Drict

Dude, I was 100% on top of following COVID. Like, I was reading about that shit in [NOVEMEBER](https://www.reddit.com/r/Coronavirus/comments/fo9dbl/this_is_the_earliest_press_report_i_could_find_on/fleq4kc/), [Link 2](https://www.reddit.com/r/NPR/comments/16dz6fx/nprs_early_covid_reporting_in_2019/) that Wuhan where there was the first posting on Reddit of a doctor pointing out something was happening in China. Chased down as much media as I could about it. I probably spent 2-3 hours a day looking at or for information about COVID. To be 100% clear, it did not impact the vast majority of people in the WORLD until March, but I already had stocked up on TP (2 months worth, I am not a physco), a handful of 24 packs of bottled water, etc. I have watched and seen the dramatization and had a good idea of what happens in critical instances of virus spreading, the WHO, and CDC's playbooks that had been dramatized, eg. Hotzone, Contagion, Outbreak, etc. Please downvote me for chasing something that my monkey brain always has lurking. ([example](https://www.reddit.com/r/AskAChinese/comments/1pff2i3/is_this_really_happening_in_china_right_now/nsjdyt2/) the newest unknown sickness in China, but I just note it and see if it goes anywhere. Looks like a nothing burger and some sensationalized headlines to me)

stairs_3730

Scientific discovery is never weakened more than when an administration refuses grants to CDC to study pathogens, diseases and potential epidemics to find cures or research grants to colleges to make new discoveries in science and technology. This is nothing more than political masterminding of the results they want-smoke and mirrors.

LateralEntry

What do you think the NIH, CDC, etc do?

MyBloodTypeIsQueso

Right. And if the admin were lying about the numbers, you’d get bureaucrats leaking the truth to the press. Just like today when it came out that RFK demanded that the CDC website link vaccines to autism. It was rank and file that leaked that to the press and threw him under the bus. If the BLS was lying, we’d all know.

Prudent-Corgi3793

Sentiment is so bearish the CDC is going to promote gay conversion therapy.

Random-Cpl

I mean, it is not good, but it’s also *not true.* From the CDC to the BLS, this administration has shown unparalleled hostility toward impartial data and a willingness to outright lie.

frappe-addicted

I weirdly find it difficult to respond to this. The hubris. Sure, we do know what happens when the economy suffers. Anyone older than 55 has grown up through the stagflation of the 70s, the dotcom bubble, the great recession. Well... we're experience all three right now. Add to the stagflation, the ai bubble, and the credit stress --- global tariffs, a market decoupled from the economy that relies on the health of the mag 7, record debt and defaults, ai replacement, geopolitical tension, and now we're losing social programs that actually put America first while the government is shut down. Might as well add another pandemic since the CDC is strained and the population is anti-science. So... who really knows what is around the corner? I think it's pretty obvious to say it isn't a new golden age.

phil_davis

[A recent CDC study](https://www.restaurantbusinessonline.com/financing/who-eats-fast-food-according-cdc) doesn't really reflect that, the opposite actually.

jagenigma

They're saying Tylenol itself causes autism.  No way that's true whatsoever. However, you know what is true?  That cyanide was used to test Tylenol for heavy metals and was left in batches released for public consumption and led to the deaths of a few people.  Look up Tylenol murders. That's the real scoop.  Talk about misinformation from the current head of the CDC...

My mortgage becomes more difficult to pay. Married to a badass 20+ year CDC scientist saving lives and working her ass off every day for the USA.

Acceptable-Drama-684

Believe me, here in the USA many (if not most) of us are saddened, frustrated, and terrified of the changes and illegal activities being carried out by this administration. Our food prices are skyrocketing while quantity & quality are decreasing. Our administration is undoing 100 years of civil rights gains for women, non-whites, LGBTQ+, and every other minority you can think of. Affordable and/or subsidized Health care will be taken away from millions over the next 4 years. Life-saving vaccines are no longer being recommended or supported by our CDC. The Democratic Party is refusing to vote for a spending bill to fund our government until some of the health care subsidies are restored. Oh, and help for the homeless is not only greatly decreased, but it is becoming illegal in more and more places for homeless people to sleep on public land. So encampments are cleared, and peoples belongings are discarded, often leaving them further on the fringes of society and literally with nowhere they are allowed to legally survive. The rich are getting richer in both legal and highly illegal ways, including our president and his family, while the middle and lower class is suffering more day by day and struggling to make ends meet. And it will likely get much worse. It’s a complete sad and scary shit show.

It is interesting to me how all in this subreddit is on the idea that Trump Always Chickens Out. The average applied US tariff rate in 2024 was 2.5%, currently it is 17.9% In other words, Trump has actually managed to increase the tax on US consumers by 15%. This has a massive affect on the cost of living and will impact consumer stocks over the next few years. I think China is trying to talk Trump down a little- they have a factory based economy after all, these tariffs are bad for their economy. But I don't think there is any way to know what will happen next. Trump is mercurial and Congress is unwilling to reel him in. Meanwhile, most of the CDC got fired on Friday and air traffic controllers are being told to work without pay.

IUI is not considered an ART procedure. The ~400,000 annual ART cycles are almost entirely IVF. The IUI market is a separate and much larger market, with 1 to 1.5 million cycles performed annually. The CDC doesn’t classify IUI under ART. IUI is the established first-line treatment precisely because it's less invasive and far cheaper than IVF. You’re ignoring the millions of treatments that happen before a patient ever gets to IVF. FemaSeed's target is not to compete with IVF; its goal is to replace the less effective IUI as the primary first step, while also having a better success rate meaning IVF might not even be needed after. As for fembloc, the entire point of FemBloc is that it is NOT a permanent implant like Essure. Essure used metal coils that stayed in the body forever, leading to complications. FemBloc, by contrast, delivers a biopolymer that causes the body to create a natural tissue blockage. The polymer itself is then completely absorbed by the body. You have a misunderstanding of the data you’ve read and also the technology itself.

SpaceJunkieee

I don’t know where you get the idea that FemaSeed has a minuscule market potential. According to the latest CDC data, there are approximately 400,000 Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) cycles performed in the U.S. annually, the vast majority of which are IVF in 2022. This isn’t even including IUI treatments. You think that’s minuscule? As for Fembloc, it’s a different design completely. So really you’re just making assumptions. The only thing you’re sorta right about is FemCerv, but that really isn’t their money maker and nobody should be pushing it as such. The big thing near term is FemaSeed and them rolling that out in the US. FemaSeed has its CPT code. This is their path to profiting in the near term once fertility clinics across the country start to adopt and routinely offer FemaSeed.

Impressive_Review

We do have critical shortages, but most people may not be aware because neither the FDA or the CDC publishes it. It can be accessed on the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists website. I’m only aware because of my work which includes current drug shortages, FDA post-marketing studies, and drug discontinuations In 2020 the FDA was directed by President Trump to create a list of essential medicines to ensure a reliable domestic supply and reduce dependence on foreign manufacturers. In 2021 a report ordered by President Biden found we have an over-reliance on foreign drugs which emphasized strategies for promoting local production and research. In August 2025 US reserves were directed to retain 6 month supplies of ingredients for designated critical drugs as only 9% of API manufacturing facilities are in the U.S., compared to 22% in China and 44% in India. As for tax breaks, the government offers or has proposed tax credits to reduce the corporate tax rate on income from domestic drug manufacturing and to offset the cost of constructing new U.S.-based facilities..

What are "trustworthy sources"? If the CDC site now says Tylenol causes autism, is that now a verified source? What if the verified source says "IDF hasn't committed any war crimes" but people on Reddit are against that notion based on lived experience?

BlooregardQKazoo

I'm not taking about politics. I am taking about this from a stock market perspective. We rely on data from the federal government, and the person that leads the federal government recently fired someone for no other reason than reporting data they didn't like. It isn't a defense that BLS hasn't gotten as bad as the CDC (yet), or that a whistleblower hasn't come out (yet). The US government crossed a bright red line. There is now explicit pressure on every agency head that wants to keep their job to report only numbers that the president likes, and that is a huge change from a situation where that pressure doesn't exist or at worst was implicit.

95Daphne

Ehh, I hate Trump, but the reality is is I'd bite much harder on the rigged numbers!!! thesis if what happened at the CDC happened at BLS. It hasn't, and if there was attempted rigging, there'd likely be a whistleblower. Reality is that not everything is going to happen in the exact same way and that Dems are likely SOL like they were for several years in the 1968-80's time period without a significant recession verifying. It is what it is. I'll live. Politics isn't everything for me.

Splurch

> They recently took a beating and look ready to take off with flu season coming and with autism now linked to Tylenol rather than vaccines. That study was bullshit and even if it wasn’t the anti-vaxxers at the CDC are still anti-vaxers.

Playful-Emu8757

Its funny how this whole anti-vax thing has unfolded. The vaccine development started under Trump and that is one of the things he DID do right. He said he would take it and said he would not make it mandatory but that others should too. MRNA was the only hope and we knew nothing about the thing that was decimating the population of the world. Nor how fast it transmitted. CDC actually came up with mask mandates way later especially and as a sort of a placebo. it did nothing. the virus was airborne and small enough that unless u had N95 masks and very careful u were likely to be exposed. Having lived through that and spent a great deal of time indoors and online, I followed every little development. If this experience taught me anything it is that propaganda and online rewriting of history is a strong influencer of public perception. I don't know who or why this has been diminished in the public consciousness and who it benefits but the narrative around Covid has changed. Come to think of it may not be a bad idea to start saving news stories.

Tylenol jokes have rejuvenated these threads. I now miss the images and memes less. Thank you, CDC.

With CDC no longer recommending the safe and highly effective COVID vaccine, do you really believe that Trump’s administration is **”going to follow the science”** when it comes to cannabis? More reason for additional doubt with cannabis reforms. I’m changing from cautiously to “very cautiously optimistic.”

-SoloEdge-

BioNTech went down after trumps anti vaccine speech. Could be another big player game. The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), a committee of leading medical and public health experts, will meet on September 18-19, 2025. This public meeting will be held at the CDC Campus in Atlanta and will be available to the public via live webcast. The committee will discuss and make recommendations on the safety, effectiveness, and clinical necessity of vaccines. After or during that meeting the stock might go up again, after the misinformation has been cleared.

DocDMD

Thank you for being someone who actually tried to answer my questions. I found the source and it looks like it was from data taken from municipalities in Japan but confounding factors like age weren't accounted for allegedly. I can't really say one way or another because it's not an actual published paper and I didn't look far enough into it to check their methodology. All I could find was a video stream about their findings.  Either way, if there is merit to what they are saying they can write a paper than can be peer reviewed. Even if there is bias in the system against things that are critical of COVID vaccines and mRNA vaccines more generally, I would still like to be able to take a look at their data and how they analyzed it before forming an opinion. For now, I'll have to say that their conclusions do not have sufficient weight to change my opinion.  COVID-19 vaccines and adverse events of special interest: A multinational Global Vaccine Data Network (GVDN) cohort study of 99 million vaccinated individuals - ScienceDirect https://share.google/g2XY7CgqdzCSQTiRG But I found this study that shows several adverse events much higher than baseline reported after vaccination.  This study includes 99M individuals and was funded entirely by the CDC.  I'm now confused about where the statements that all mRNA COVID vaccines are entirely safe are coming from. This study would show that the risk of taking the vaccine would have to be weighed against the occurrence rate of adverse events from viral infection.

Lol so looking at a specific politically defined area of comparison is cherry picking, but using CDCs regional review isn't? Remind me where the most obese populations live in the United States? CDC also did a state review, and surprise, Florida is comparable to California.

There are literally dozens of studies on this. And you literally chose to bring up Florida specifically. So yeah. You chose it. Since I’m just being ideological, how about we try another study measuring the exact same thing, but by region, and not by two very specific states? https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/72/wr/mm7218a4.htm > The COVID-19–associated age-adjusted death rate was lowest (49.5 per 100,000) in HHS Region 1 (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont) and highest (69.3) in Region 6 (Arkansas, Louisiana, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas). The second highest age-adjusted COVID-19 death rate (65.5) and highest number of COVID-19–associated deaths (56,695) occurred in Region 4 (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee). Weird. Does the CDC count?

Pathetic, and not a word from either Vance or Trump about the Police Officer who was murdered by a MAGA Terrorist last month who shot 500 rounds into the CDC Headquarters. That man was INFINITELY more deserving that this White Supremacist Incel influencer who incited violence every day of his adult life.

Maybe that's because i was asking if they got covid boosters?  I thought maybe they prefer the older CDC recommendations.  Otherwise, what's all the whining and hysteria about?

Sadly. I would be inclined to say this is legit. Trump’s guy hasn’t been confirmed at BLS yet and you haven’t seen many lifetimers quit yet (with that happening at the CDC, it’s clear something very nefarious is going on there). The guy that’s interim has been there for decades. Plus the ADP report that’s been mocked and ridiculed is likely close to the BLS report now. In reality, the BLS has nobody to blame but their methods since the pandemic to blame for this. Revisions are normal, but the response rates dropping since then has led to less accuracy and it unfortunately leaves the door wide open for conspiracy theories like “muh, they’re propping the left up!!!” Good news though I can give you is that if the large scale revisions are even reported, this problem didn’t just magically poof with Trump, and the same slowness in the private sector, especially ex-AI/data center is still going on, and if it doesn’t begin turning around quickly by mid next year, it’s quite possible that “Trump/MAGA are bad for jobs” begins to start setting in for the mainstream.

Those conditions no longer exist? Dude, the federal government just cut billions from states budgets. Introduced insane tariffs. FEMA isn't doling out money to those who have lost everything. The government is allowing private equity into every corner of everything. The government is cancelling nearly completed projects that would have lowered costs. The government is shutting down the EPA and the CDC. If the conditions don't exist now they will shortly. Like I said I can already see double digit increases in things that people cant just get rid of.

IAmOneGuessFromRich

Riiiight. So we’re believing the *science* coming out of the CDC and HHS now that a heroin addict, road kill eating, vaccine denying, worm in the brain piece of shit RFK has fired thousands of the scientists that actually use the scientific method and rather believes in TikTok, internet educated *nutritionists*. I’m sure the remaining scientists and researchers that signed the petition asking the POTUS to fire RFK are also just partisan staffers and not professionals in their trade watching the gutting of their departments and destruction of their research. Anyone defending this fucker might need to go get an MRI, they might also have a worm in the brain. At least I hope so, because otherwise Idiocracy is complete and soon we’ll only be watering plants with Brawndo.

saferoadtraveller

Anyone who actually believes anything RFK says is true is the biggest f’ng regard of all the regarded. Almost all of CDC leadership just resigned because RFK not only doesn’t consult any of them before vomiting out podcast bro bs nonsense, but he refuses to look at any peer reviewed science and instead lives in his conspiracy fueled wacko echo chamber with a pile of morons. Public health is about to be set back decades. I hope Kenvue sues the government for an insane amount of money and publicly slaughters RFK.

No, bc everything causes autism except uncle Phil’s patented good time feel good elixir, it’ll cure polio, diabetes, measles, mumps, and bumps! Does it cure rubella? You bet ya fella. Now endorsed by the CDC and NIH That and bear carcasses, also great for curing cancer if you’re not too busy leaving them in popular trails in Central Park

RFK blamed obesity on the CDC. Meanwhile, 🥭 eats McDonalds habitually. Lol.

atdharris

Who cares what he says? The Senate GOP will confirm anyone Trump nominates no matter how concerned they are. Look how they confirmed RFK Jr. to run the CDC

WickOfDeath

Wait until Trump issues an executive order to rewrite astronomy books. Maybe people wake up or not... K "The earth is flat, sun turns around earth and the universe contains 500 stars and is 5000 miles long." This pubication above reads like "we dont need the CDC any more". Until the next animal grewn flu or lab escaped virus jumps on humans. Maybe he will say "wash your hands with Coke". He was also that ingenious guy who said that Coke would be healthier by replacing maple sirup by cane sugar... replacing one sugar by another is just paying debt by taking a new loan. That's like the US gouverment works.

The latest CDC data shows that Louisiana had the highest murder rate in the U.S., with about 20.9 murders per 100,000 people.

No, you're ripping the CDC apart for some harebrained notion

Jewbacca522

Umm, isn’t he the one who is literally ripping apart the CDC? It’s like he forgets (on purpose) who was responsible for everything he’s pissed about. Hint: it was him.

Puckhead7166

Lol. He’s a fking idiot and so is that Whale hat wearing wacko he put in charge of the CDC

Trump’s post highlights a recurring tension: the lack of transparency between drug companies, regulators, and the public. 1. He argues that while companies like Pfizer have shown him “great numbers,” these results are not being shared widely with the CDC or the public. 2. He frames this as a credibility issue for both the pharmaceutical industry and Operation Warp Speed, which was central to the Covid response. 3. The post underscores growing skepticism about how pandemic data was handled and whether successes are being overstated without open verification. Regardless of political leaning, the demand for clearer disclosure of trial data and outcomes is valid. Without it, public trust in both health institutions and pharmaceutical innovation remains fragile.

New CDC guidelines put road kill in the food pyramid

FaultySage

>Trump’s prior appointees that sit on the FOMC are technocrats who have not been known to cave to Trump’s pressure historically. People also forget that Powell himself is a first term Trump appointee that has resisted Trump’s pressure. Yeah, and Bolton was a member of his first term cabinet. We can't look to lessons from the first term to make future predictions here when we're 7 months in. Every unqualified, sycophantic cabinet nominee has been pushed through by the Senate. The one Senate approved appointment that got some GOP pushback and Trump caved on, the CDC director, is already out. Assume that whoever gets through will be a loyalist first.

They just got more of it at the CDC.

New CDC head says you should slap all vaccinated people and eat covid farts for breakfast. Puts on health.

Muh CDC is in disarray! Bullish for big pharma, as always

RFK Jr finally taking control of the CDC, set to announce to those commie librul scientists and doctors that autism is actually cause by posting on WSB.

ManBearPig_1983

I don’t give a fuuuuuuk about the CDC. Covid was BS. All it did was cull some of those Boomers who needed to go anyway.

boskylady

What about the CDC murders he causes

Omarkhayyamsnotes

He just fired the director of the CDC for refusing to rubber stamp orders. The next person who gives a bad report about the economy? Fired!

toonguy84

Didn't RFK just first the CDC head because she was pro Covid vax? How much of PFE's value is tied to the Covid vaccine? If that's already priced in then sure but RFK seems to hate pharma and this admin takes a lot of action.

LeBhikariLe

fired DOL director, one of the fed governors, and now the CDC director... when does it stop

Me-Regarded

Sell everything, go all on Clorox CLX. If CDC is dismantled, vaccines outlawed, everyone is fired.... If a disease breaks out Clorox will be our only means of survival.

Who is getting fired today? BLS head ✅ Fed Reserve Governor ✅ Military leadership ✅ CDC leadership ✅ ????

CDC got fired after the latest COVID scare, my company has kits ready. Sounds sus

smarglebloppitydo

It benefits rewriting the Covid pandemic narrative in a way that aligns with the presidents personal beliefs. He had egg on his face for handling the pandemic and underplaying the severity of the virus and was pressured by his voters not to require it and not to get the vaccine. This is a big middle finger to the CDC under Fauci and any government that required the vaccine. See look it’s dangerous we told you.

Everyone, please remember, the CDC's zombie preparedness plans are just for fun. They're a handy thought excersise. The CDC is not actually planning for a zombie apocalypse
