But then tell them how you’ll continue to care for them – walk with them – through their serious illness.
Use these skilled phrases to help patients feel supported – never abandoned.

We will rally every corner of the U.S.

We will not stop until they actually vote no.

These cuts will have immediate impact, experts say. “We’re going to have patients die,” says Jade Pagkas-Bather, an infectious disease doctor at the University of Chicago who also specializes in HIV prevention. “Unnecessary, preventable death.” www.wired.com/story/cdc-gu...

The CDC Has Been Gutted

Thousands of CDC employees who worked on things like preventing HIV and lead poisoning have been told they were subject to a reduction in force. Experts say people will die.
