6/9 What’s happening in Maine?
A state facing a record HIV outbreak — people getting sick, dying — asked for help.
It’s still waiting.
🙄 Excuse offered: “the shutdown.”
But former CDC directors say Epi-Aids have gone out during shutdowns.
So what’s different this time — and who made that call? 🤔

Sean Duffy: "The secretary of war texted me yesterday and said, 'I might have some air traffic controllers. If you could use them, I'm gonna offer them to you.' I don't know that I can, Jake, because they're not certified in the airspaces that we need them. But if I can, I'm going to use them."
