Just spoke with my CDC sources.
They said RFK Jr. has banned further testing of symptomatic farm workers after several tested positive for H5N1.
Internal messages warned CDC staff: “This is your last warning talk to the media about bird flu, and you’ll be fired and blacklisted from public health.”

And yet WaPo did. https://www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/2025/05/12/afrikaner-refugees-arrive-dulles-trump/
Fareed Zakaria: "#ElonMusk choosing, thru #DOGE, to cut #USAID is a case of the world's richest man being involved in the deaths of the world's worse [off] people."
Bill Gates: "If you show up and say in a few months you can cut $2 trillion out of a $7 trillion budget, you're not going to succeed... He's a genius in some domains but in global health, it hasn't been a focus."

Gov. Abbott supports a bill in Texas that is being hyped as a "furries" bill.
