Holy cow: 10% of the village of Corzano 🇮🇹 has the #B117 variant—10% of all residents! 60% of cases are kids from kindergarten and primary school, other 40% are their parents, says the mayor. Schools in the village now closed. ansa.it/amp/lombardia/… Image
2) Israel is seeing a sharp rise in the number of children and teens getting infected with coronavirus, according to 🇮🇱 Health Ministry.

“This is something we did not witness in previous waves of coronavirus,” Health Minister Yuli Edelstein said.#COVID19
m.jpost.com/health-science…
3) forgot to mention, the mayor of the village in Italy 🇮🇹 is also #COVID19 positive. Image
4) Schools are closed in this Italian village until Feb 8th. But it might be extended because of the new outbreak. tg24.sky.it/milano/2021/02…
5) More on pediatric transmission. There is a phase shift that happens if cases are no longer low in a community.
6) this is the most detailed explanation of school transmission. Current data is biased because children are rarely / less frequently tested.
7) Here is the other major looming problem in this pandemic.... its diverging into two. And the new strain will likely launch a new surge.
8) We need to call a spade a spade. I’m the biggest supporter of the hardworking scientists at the CDC... but something isn’t making sense with indoor cafeteria unmasked school lunches....
9) we are back to SQUARE ONE if we don’t stop these damn variants with tricky mutations that evade even our previous antibodies. Because look at what fresh hell we discovered this week... Fauci is even worried. https://t.co/yqgeNJsgzj
10) latest U.K. data on infection positivity in kids.... much higher relatively to adults.
11) the Italian village outbreak of 60% of cases in kids matches this new outbreak in kindergartners in another Austrian town. Unknown variant yet.
12) Now there is a full blown national outbreak in kids in Italy 🇮🇹 from #B117. See detailed thread 🧵 below.

🛑CANCELLED—“Research on Women’s Health” funding website of the NIH. Image
2) here is the page that is now deleted. Funding opportunities in women’s health research of ORWH site. Didn’t Trump say they at least recognize women as a gender? Weird.

3) It’s a bloodbath today for CDC websites too…

🪓DELETION UPDATE—More than 1,000 pages are now deleted from websites of CDC, National Institutes of Health, and other sites of the Department of Health and Human Services, according to a new WSJ analysis—including many **vaccine recommendation** scientific pages! Image
2) CDC’s vaccine advisory committee webpage… now ❌ DELETED ❌ Image
3) To be clear, while the main ACIP website is still up (generic committee info), the “VACCINE SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS” website of ACIP has been **deleted**. That key page is the one with the actual public health info for vaccines. Feel free to verify:

⚠️CDC WEBSITES DELETED—Multiple CDC websites and datasets related to HIV, LGBTQ people, youth health behaviors and more have been removed after the agency was directed to comply with an executive order from President Trump by 5pm deadline. Wildest is taking down even HIV pages! Image
Image
2) Like, why then hell did the “CAUSES” of HIV even get deleted??? Makes zero sense. Why is Trump WH wanting to block how to stop HIV???
cdc.gov/hiv/causes/ind…Image
3) also deleted: CDC’s Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, which includes data from a national survey, has disappeared. so have parts of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry’s Social Vulnerability Index and the Environmental Justice Index.

⚠️Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind.

➡️Most of the world 🌎 has been vaccinated against TB… but the US has not, which is now extra vulnerable. Image
Image
2) For those asking, the majority of the world has used the BCG vaccine against TB… the BCG vaccine also protects against many other bacterial infections too. Up until now, CDC skipped it because US was low risk, and the BCG vaccine leaves a small scar & BCG messes up TB tests. Image
3) What about drugs for TB? Yes they exist but the problem is that TB often develops drug resistance (the bacteria evolves to evade neutralization). And thus, multi drug resistant TB has become a worldwide issue. That’s why childhood vaccination better.

⚠️PFAS IS BACK—recall the EPA plan to ban dangerous forever chemicals from drinking water ➡️Well, Trump WH just cancelled it… once again allowing big corporations to discharge PFAS into rivers. PFAS cause cancers & many diseases. Does this make American healthy again? Image
2) “There really isn’t a system within the human body that isn’t affected by PFAS. They are toxic in many ways, but they’re also very long-lived. They’re designed not to break down in the environment or not to break down to heat and chemical stress.”
michiganpublic.org/politics-gover…
3) CDC also just got banned from seeking any advice or input from the WHO — CDC can’t communicate or even enter any WHO building anymore. Perfect way to politically isolate CDC from outside science.

NEW—CDC officially ordered by Trump WH to cease working with the @WHO, effective immediately. This is the first time in almost 77 years since WHO’s founding after World War 2. This is a dark day. Image
2) the memo said the stop-work policy applied to “all CDC staff engaging with WHO through technical working groups, coordinating centers, advisory boards, cooperative agreements or other means — in person or virtual.”
3) It also says @CDCgov staff are not allowed to visit @WHO offices.

CDC ordered to stop working with WHO immediately, upending expectations of an extended withdrawal
