For the past two months, ELON MUSK -led “DOGE) members have stalked the hall of the Centers for Disease Control Center (CDC) Atlanta.
Some employees told Guardian that the owner would be fired immediately when the Doge staff saw the badge in a workstation without walking in the office. If someone was dismissed to violate security, Doge made excuses to protect public officials, review performance, or bypass the defense of seniority.
Loose badge. All written.
If you are dismissed to leave the badge in the bathroom break, it was arbitrarily for those who work at the CDC. That day, thousands of federal workers from the Ministry of Health and Welfare (HHS) were placed in all branches and related agencies in the country to represent Donald Trump’s second term.
About 10,000 people have lost their jobs in institutions, including the Centers for Disease Control and Pharmaceuticals, and the National Institute of Health.
Reduction of CDC: Freedom of Information of the entire information, a team that determines the recall of a laboratory that tests violence, antibiotic resistance, and a dangerous baby product.
According to an anonymous condition, a CDC scientist who still has a job said, “There was no guidance and leadership.” “We are looking at the debris for survivors this week.”
A week’s confusion and confusion
The range of cuts remains a mystery for federal health workers. mistakeI moved to restore some employees. Kennedy said, “It was always a plan.”
A few hours after the reduction, the Aqua Green Dry Dry Dry Reaching board in the Library of Atlanta’s CDC headquarters raised the loss like a casualty committee for victims of earthquakes on Tuesday morning.
The word “do do n’n erase” has occupied the constellation of national chronic diseases, such as NCCDPHP, and the prevention of health promotion centers or NCICP national injuries and control centers. Under the top line, the women’s health of the reproductive health department and the second abbreviation of the schematic, such as the Dasan Branch (WHFB), the second abbreviation and translation point (VPTB).
There was no true warning about who could stay and be fired. Even until the Doge sent a notice of reduction to the early in the morning, I had no idea who would remain.
Since it was the only plan of the employee leader, the word drifting from colleagues about the cut, and people gathered around the board of directors. Health workers circulated updated photos through informal group chat and discord servers.
Scientists began to tears at the library stack.
Inquiries about the scope of the cut and the CDC for that plan have been routed to HHS.
“All legally required positions and offices will remain the same, and as a result of the reconstruction, the execution of Congress will be better. Hilliard said in the process of” collaboration, “” included three feedbacks of each department, and the HHS leaders focused on the overlapping or unnecessary administrative position. “
that In fact Hilliard did not include mention of lost scientific functions in Fuzzy.
Warning of heartbreaking and danger
Shelby Hutton, a biologist who works in HIV research, was fired on April 1. She said on Friday a press conference with Nikema Williams, a leading Democratic Democratic Democratic Democratic Democratic Democratic Party, “We represented Atlanta before packaging all accesses until the end of the day.
“We had no time to order the laboratory in order so that sensitive equipment and valuable biological samples were protected and stored.”
The employees of Hutton, such as Hutton, felt the mourning of research on research, but people when others died, not only their lost jobs, but without research.
Laborrooms around the world submit biological samples and test data to CDCs to maintain the storage of historical information for research reference.
In important areas such as antibiotic -resistant infection surveillance, no one can collect the sample in the laboratory, said a scientist.
The hospital also asks CDC for advice when looking at new diseases. But Kevin Pettus, a 30 -year -old veteran scientist of an institution who lost his job last week, said that the process of investigating and answering these requests was suspended.
“I think they didn’t think of this when they decided to cut our branches,” he said. “If the agenda tries to make the United States again, Elon Musk and 47 have already made this country worse than.
“What happened is that everyone has been in danger of not only our family but also the family. Some of them should be solved and solved immediately.”
Kennedy, the US Minister of Health, said that the goal of the Doge is not a study in the media on Wednesday. However, it is clear that medical workers gathered the range of cuts together, and the cut hit bones, not fat.
Carmen Marsit, vice president of Rollins School of Public Health of Emory University, said, “The United States had an amazing research infrastructure and was doing amazing research to identify the next treatment and prevent the next disease.
“The government has invested tremendous investments in these drugs in many developed programs, and now we are ready to move them through the finish line and actually act. And it is stopping.”
A wide range of cuts affects health and safety
The influence is gradually becoming clear as federal workers have stopped and the team learned about the cuts.
There are almost everyone in the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health.
Smoking and health offices at the National Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion Center have seen public health work is suspended. Prevention of violence, prevention of injuries, injuries and information departments of the National Injury Prevention and Control Center. Above all, the department studies firearms and domestic violence that have soared during the epidemic period to reduce sexual violence and gun death.
Reductions have been reached at a viral hepatitis and sexually transmitted diseases in the National Center for preventing HIV, viral hepatitis, sexually transmitted diseases and tuberculosis.
The global health center of CDC has disappeared health information for HIV and tuberculosis, scientific integrity and special initiatives.
As efforts to dismantle the environmental protection have grown, workers have been cut off from the CDC’s asthma and air quality monitoring and childhood lead prevention teams.
Reduction of other CDCs includes the technical point of the prediction and outbreak analysis center, and software engineers and computer scientists accept computer scientists who support new centers during Covid-19 Pandemic, which helps to predict the disease.
CDC employees have already been exploring the influence of the flood of administrative orders in Trump’s pen since January. At some point, the research database was completed to comply with the order to replace all reference to gender with “gender” in scientific research documents.
But at least the CDC was ready to solve the problem with the staff. Workers now say that people who understand how to solve these problems have gone.
The insiders say that only the skeletal employees remain in dozens of departments and branches, and only gestures for tasks mandatory by law and parliamentary budget are possible.
I look forward to
Atlanta drivers stood with CDC workers who were fired at the press conference to help Atlanta drivers support Atlanta drivers.
Williams called CDC “pride in the fifth place of battle.” It was called Trump’s rudeness of the city, which began with the conflict between Trump’s John Lewis and Georgia’s fifth parliamentary district.
“It is illegal and unconstitutional at the moment of public offense in our community that our reactions should be noisy and clear in the name of justice and prosperity.“ We are fighting for the health and dignity of our country.
“We are fighting in the community.”
