CDC

-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.

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.

psellers237

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?

Rurumo666

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.

Antique-Resort6160

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.

thechairinfront

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.

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.

aqpulse

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.

>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.

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.

I only see the daily beast reporting this so far, citing one anonymous individual who is an “associate of RFK”. Not even a CDC official. I really don’t believe this yet. Who knows what kind of pudding-brained idiots are “associates of RFK Jr.”

NCRunningGal007

I agree…It’s heading down for a variety of reasons… mostly tariffs are beginning to be felt as employers had stocked up … moving towards Christmas, the cost will be higher and it IS being passed on to the consumer at a bad time… many folks have been laid off from DOGE and research hospitals/universities losing CDC/NIH-funded grants and Trump vindictively withholding my payments to universities because he feels they haven’t bowed to him enough. Companies aren’t hiring with this instability and chaos. And now a recession looks more likely. So YES the stock market is tanking - 5 days in a row of losses.

What are you referring to?  The CDC has had the same recommended testing regiment since about 2022 - test for exposed and symptomatic, and no testing asymptomatic. 

Princess-Donutt

I am also a bit of a Hypochondriac, so it helps to put things into perspective: * Microplastics have been linked to chronic inflammation in individuals which can lead to increased risk of metabolic illness, though it's inconclusive whether at a population level they are causing significant impact on life expectancy. Confounding results is the ever-higher levels of obesity, which does have a very real impact on population longevity. * Covid reduced life expectancy primarily by all the deaths that occurred. Remember, these numbers are population statistics. Kind of like how life expectancy in the middle-ages was like mid-30's. People weren't dropping dead at 35, rather infant mortality was off the charts. Dead Infant plus dead 70-year old = 35 year life expectancy. * Annual wildfires always occurred, but yes it's a bit worse. However again, the lowering of life expectancy is due to excess deaths, primarily in individuals already experiencing substantial cardiovascular problems. Also, a place like Taiwan which has twice the average pollution index score, has 3 years longer life expectancy than the US. * Lyme disease deaths are extremely uncommon according to the CDC. That said, people inflicted with lyme disease and exhibit PTLDS has a lower quality of life, but not necessarily a shorter lifespan. Basically - let's focus on the things we **know** lower an individual's life expectancy (no smoking, no obesity, no jackass stunts), and plan to make it well into retirement.

He doesn't want the truth, he wants proclamations that he is the best. Anything that doesn't make him look like the best won't be tolerated. No different than with COVID, which is why the FDA and the CDC are now full of bootlickers and not scientists at the top. So thanks Susan, he learned his lesson alright. And the Republicans keep going on with the lies. Replace Schumer now. Dems need to fight tooth and nail to stop the spread or at least the complacency for the never ending misinformation.

Biden credited the success to the software, Palantir, being deployed by the federal government.[30] He announced that the capability would be deployed at other government agencies, starting with Medicare and Medicaid.

I wonder if the Australian health system is ready. Increases in E. Coli )157:H7. Increased Salmonella and Listeria. Increases in antibacterial resistences. Increases in AMR pathogens such as resistant Salmonelle. Hormone disruption caused by the excessive uncontrolled use of estrogen, progesterone and testosterone analogs banned outside America since the 80s. And let's not forget increases colorectal, pancreatic, and prostate cancer! They make elevated LDL cholesterol, heart disease and increases in type 2 diabetes seem minor. The CDC estmates that approximately 48 million people get sick in America yearly due to the beef they eat. No wonder Trump wants to silence the CDC. I wonder if Australia will simply receive the beef, then dump it somewhere ... it'd be better for them.

You invest in companies. Not idea like "autonomous vehicles". Warren Buffett has mentioned in a couple of speeches that in 1900, *everyone* knew that the 20th C was going to be the year of the automobile. And they were 100% correct. But there were 2000 auto companies in the US in 1900...so which ones do you invest in? Because there were only about 5 by the 1950's, and only three by 2000. And the surviving ones weren't always the best investments. In the 1920's and '30's, there were 400 aircraft companies - so, again, which ones do you invest in? It's 1975 and you know the computer will be the future of tech. IBM has ~70% of the market. Do you invest all of your money in IBM? Or do you spread it around to the other leading computer companies: DEC, Sperry-Rand, CDC, Honeywell, Burroughs, NCR, etc.? Buffett's actual advice (and I'm not sure how useful it is) was that you can't really pick winners, but you can pick losers - if you know that the automobile is going to become the dominant new technology, you short horses. Although I'm not really sure that you can short horses..

Oh aren't you just adorable with your state media talking points! 🤣 1. Culling is standard department of agriculture policy, and has been since long before Biden, and is the exact same policy currently under your fuhrer. Since the current bird flu outbreak began in February 2022, approximately 166 million birds have been culled as part of these efforts. While the majority of these culls occurred during the Biden presidency, it's obviously because the outbreak started while Biden in office. This iSnT rOcKeT sCiEnCe. The policy and practice of depopulation have continued unchanged under the current administration, and an estimated 13 million birds were affected since February. 2. Egg prices are down 14% in the last couple months. They are still up 41% from where they were in 2024. They're currently still projected to raise 20% in 2025. 3. All Trump has done is kneecap the USDA and the FDA, pulled money from a program that was creating an avian flu vaccine, and fired thousands of their employees with their fake ass doge nonsense, (whom there are now struggling to hire back). Also the CDC has been instructed to no longer file reports on avian flu. Is this the "proactive addressing" of the problem you were speaking of? Fucking clown. I don't know how you find time to be condescending with all that orange dick in your mouth.

BirthdayWaste9171

I know hard to believe your trusted leader was inept. Under Biden, the USDA failed to proactively address the spread of H5N1 virus leading to the rampant spread of the disease and subsequent mass cullings from 2022-2024 nearly 150 million birds were unalived…most of which were egg laying hens. This policy of mass culling even when only a few cases were dedicated lead to entire flocks being eradicated. And shocker the increase in egg prices. Now that mass cullings are no longer the “suggested” approach egg prices are declining with increased production. Not rocket science people. Source: American Farm Bureau and CDC.

iReallyDontLikeSpez

Thanks, I try to engage in good faith and not sound like my hair is on fire - doesn't always work lol. I agree my reasoning is speculative, but at least the whistleblower claims at DOJ and the CDC/HHS stuff has been reported by NYT and others so I trust it. I just put myself in that team's place and think "if it's my family's ability to not be homeless or this dumb report that WSB is gonna ignore just to buy more calls", I unfortunately think I know which I'd pick.

iReallyDontLikeSpez

Can't speak for BLS specifically but reclassifying all employees as Schedule F (political appointees) removes most labor protections so govt employees now have significant risk to their jobs for not aligning with policy. DOJ whistleblowers report significant push to defy judges in line with political policy from DJT. CDC/HHS scientists overruled by political appointees over COVID shot recommendations. Huge numbers of layoffs mean everyone is pulling double duty just to keep above water. It doesn't take a huge leap or even a small step to see how these numbers could get messed up just based on overworked employees alone, but combine that with the fear of reprisal (from a Prez who strongly cares about these numbers in particular for his economic image) and I think it gets real hard to trust these.

RFK jr wasn’t part of any vaccine development. He’s an anti-vax lunatic. The vaccine programs were in Trump 1.0 and RFK Jr wasn’t part still wandering around Samoa peddling conspiracy theories about the MMR vaccine in 2019 that caused 83 measles death in the following outbreak. He’s a menace to society. The CDC has refused to follow his lunacy in their childhood vaccine recommendations released Friday. I expect there will be mass firings there this week.

In all, the increased decay and boosted dental costs would disproportionately affect children who are in low-income families, in rural areas, and/or on public health insurance. The study's findings are likely unsurprising to those in the public health community, who have consistently supported fluoridation. The practice, however beneficial, has a long history of being under attack. After its introduction in the US in 1945, conspiracy theorists claimed fluoridation was a communist plot and a form of government mind control. More recently, critics have claimed that fluoridation lowers IQ. The data linking water fluoridation to low IQ is controversial. Many of the studies on the topic are of poor quality and have numerous confounding factors and flawed methods. Many compare IQ levels in communities in China and other countries, where there are areas with water that is naturally high in fluoride—much, much higher than what is intentionally added to US water. Further, a federal meta-analysis—a type of study that aggregates and reanalyzes data from independent studies—has been plagued by criticism for bias, poor statistical methods, and a lack of data transparency. But despite the controversy, one thing is clear in all the data and debate: Any possible association with low IQ and fluoridation only occurs at excessive levels—levels more than twice the amount used in the US and recommended by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC recommendation for water fluoridation levels is 0.7 mg/L, while potential harms are not observed until water levels exceed 1.5 mg/L. Some areas in China have natural levels as high as 11.8 mg/L. The authors of the new study conclude that, at current US levels, the benefits are clear. "These findings suggest that, despite the potential harms of excessive fluoride exposure, fluoridation at safe levels offers both individual and societal benefits that would be at risk."

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the obesity rate in the United States in 2021-2023 was40.3%. This means that approximately 40% of adults in the U.S. were classified as obese. If we can't lower the cost of healthcare, then 10X grocery prices might be another way out.

Ohhh gotcha! 20 years ago most grants were "direct" (Project Specific) that universities would submit RFAs or NOFOs to apply for grants. These grants have super specific guidelines. Grants were super competitive and usually issued by like the DoD, NASA, DoE, or CDC. Now a larger portion of grants are "indirect" (Block Grants). These are non competitive and automatically awarded to institutions. The idea behind these grants is to do research on longer time frames, but what often happens is that there is a ton of waste because the scope of the research isnt specific.

You're fundamentally wrong. Firstly, it was his administration that wanted to PARTIALLY restrict borders because he wanted to downplay the pandemic. People called for the border to close so it didn't reach the US because they were terrified of what COVID has done in China. When he realized things were serious, he took the opportunity to call it "his decision" to close the border. He made many contradictory claims and handled the pandemic like a bump in the road. The CDC issued warnings early that December, but Covid hadn’t reached the US yet. You know what he said when the first person reached here positive with COVID??? “Oh, we’re fine, it’s just one person.” Not to mention Covid itself was an undocumented strain that NO doctor was prepared for, much less had vaccines. So undermining a whole new illness was genuinely his fault and he did not stay neutral like you claim.

It was on CNN I saw it real time. You should maybe review the history , blaming agent 🍊 for the WHO and CDC mismanagement is a bit crazy. By the why I think your response is a weird take because you have no counter just the ad homenin attack of weird. Hey I think it is weird ,so what . I think it is weird everyone still blames agent 🍊 for a total and absolute failure of the medical system. Not a fan but also not his fault.

The CDC is biased? I injured myself rolling my eyes so hard.

With all respect, the APHA is funded by the CDC; and omission and obvious conflict of interest that leave the rest of your post suspect in the least and undoubtedly biased in the worst. Perhaps this fact is a revelation, but I’d assume not considering how well informed, well articulated, and properly researched the rest of your response has been formulated. All of which I can and do appreciate; it would just seem on this matter we are in opposition.

Cut CDC funds and get another pandemic to return to affordable gas

_Please

The stock price rocketed under Biden, could you clarify how that was controlled by Trump and a mastermind insider trading scheme? Just check the chart since IPO to 2025... >A document leaked to TechCrunch revealed that Palantir's clients as of 2013 included at least twelve groups within the U.S. government, including the CIA, the DHS, the NSA, the FBI, the CDC, the Marine Corps, the Air Force, the Special Operations Command, the United States Military Academy, the Joint Improvised-Threat Defeat Organization and Allies, the Recovery Accountability and Transparency Board and the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. However, at the time, the United States Army continued to use its own data analysis tool.[^(\[31\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies#cite_note-tebtecnchrun-31) Also, according to TechCrunch, the U.S. spy agencies such as the CIA and FBI were linked for the first time with Palantir software, as their databases had previously been siloed.[^(\[31\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies#cite_note-tebtecnchrun-31) Somehow they've been given so many contracts by other administrations to grift. So many that I can't even link them, my comment goes beyond the max accepted length. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir\_Technologies#](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palantir_Technologies#) If you think every shitty company with shitty fundamentals is an insider trading scheme... well you might be new to the market. This is not the first, nor is it new. Enjoy your stay and remember this simple quote, "the markets can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent"

Lmao and who’s going to do that? NIOSH and CDC have been gutted. Starbase’s local health department? Don’t count on it.

In the short run: The market will go way up, obviously. In the long run: The economy in general will fall into a recession for other reasons. One of the biggest reasons has been brought up here before, but not often enough: Trump and co are doing their best to destroy many areas of science in the US. More specifically, public health is being absolutely trashed in *many* specific ways. The long term economic consequences of taking away all that research and development and innovation and new products are massive. The medium term consequences will probably include a human H5N1 pandemic with effects that are much, much more severe than they need to be. There are many reasons why the 1918-1920 pandemic caused more death and devastation than any of the others in the past century or so, but one of the largest is that there was no public health system as we would understand it today. No CDC, no coordination between local health systems, no NIH etc. The lack of effective public health may actually have been more of a factor than the lack of antivirals or antibiotics for secondary infections. And some of these consequences of that earlier pandemic were of course economic ones.
