An Ebola strain with no approved vaccine is spreading in the DRC. The year before, the US cut roughly 70 CDC disease detectives, quit the WHO, and moved to halve the CDC
budget. We dismantled prevention, then paid late.

Growing Ebola outbreak.
Weaker surveillance systems.
Less global coordination.
Experts warn the U.S. leaving the World Health Organization means we may have less visibility into outbreaks as they spread.

A federally funded study reportedly found no major safety concerns with COVID-19 & shingles vaccines.
But the findings were blocked from publication after failing to support a preferred narrative.
That should concern everyone.

A growing Ebola outbreak in Congo and Uganda is raising concern among global health experts.
Weakened disease surveillance, public health cuts, and the U.S. pulling out of WHO have left the world more vulnerable.

The science reportedly showed the vaccines were safe.
The findings were blocked anyway.
What else are they hiding?

Dr. Clare becomes the first Black woman president of American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.
A moment that could not matter more as Black women remain 2.5–3x more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes.

Today my cousin Maya Doig-Acuña defended her doctoral dissertation at Harvard, on how Afro-Panamanian families preserve memory the official archive leaves out, tracing it across Panama and Brooklyn through the women who keep it.
P'alante, prima.
A rare Ebola strain.
Weakened surveillance systems.
The U.S. pulling out of the World Health Organization.
This is why experts are sounding the alarm.
