THREAD: People keep asking me how they can protect themselves from the #nCoV19#coronavirus. This is not a disease that can be addressed at an individual level. This is a public health problem that requires a community/societal response.
1/ After the shooting at CDC earlier this month, employees sent a blunt letter to HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.
They said that instead of standing with them, RFK Jr. is spreading conspiracy theories about the CDC & their work.
on @CBSEveningNews with @jdickerson
2/ They called this dangerous & made 3 requests:
🔹Stop spreading inaccurate health info
🔹Affirm CDC’s scientific integrity
🔹Guarantee safety of the HHS workforce
Because a major new U.K. clinical trial—the largest & longest yet—found that even “improved” UPFs can’t match the benefits of minimally processed meals. 🍎🥗
2/ Brennan: "...you with the HHS Secretary in this video announcement on Tuesday where Secretary Kennedy said the CDC was removing the COVID vaccine for healthy children & healthy pregnant women from its recommended immunization schedule"
