If you're keeping track of the long list of things this admin's done that flies in the face of MAHA, censoring and ultimately losing the top intramural nutrition scientist studying food processing and health is definitely towards the top.
After 21 years at my dream job, I’m very sad to announce my early retirement from the National Institutes of Health. My life’s work has been to scientifically study how our food environment affects what we eat, and how what we eat affects our physiology.

“Improving public health”
We are in the midst of a deadly measles outbreak and RFK Jr is congratulating Steak n Shake on changing the seed oil in their 650kcal/1400mg Sodium large fries to beef tallow.

Chat, is this public health?

This is a big deal, y'all. Federal health websites are being stripped of content or removed in their entirety. Stick with this thread for a look at what's disappeared so far! 1/x

Here are just a few of the NSF review panels that were shut down today, Chuck.

This is research that would have made us competitive in computer science that will now be delayed by many months if not lost forever.

AI is fine but right now the top priority is keeping the lights on at NSF and NIH.

CDC's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) has provided real-time data and analysis about disease outbreaks and emerging health threats without a break every week since 1960.

Until today.
