Since Donald Trump took office on 20 January, two federal agencies responsible for monitoring and responding to the epidemic have withheld bird flu reports and canceled congressional briefings and meetings with state health officials, the sources said.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) withheld two weekly reports, one on bird flu transmission and another on surveillance, and canceled several meetings on bird flu with state officials.

    After promising to bring down egg prices, this asshole’s actions have made grocery bills worse, and his supporters want you to believe he had nothing to do with it. It was an act of God, not some monster wearing human skin hamstringing federal agencies that could mitigate disease or natural disasters.

      Way ahead of you. Stocked up on N95s and toilet paper mid-November. Have been stocking extra dog food and non-perishables in my pantry since then as well.
