You know Kate Winslet in Contagion? Where she runs into a hot zone, risking her life, so Americans could be safer? She was an EIS officer. That’s who was just fired at CDC today. EIS officers. And many, many more public servants fighting every day for your health.

They should remake 'OutBreak' and 'Contagion' for modern audiences. Have a pandemic but we have a group we can calling AGAM that are so fucking stupid they want to help the spread of viruses and fight as hard as possible to 'expose' doctors.

Amazingly, my first exposure to this movie was coincidentally just a few days before his 'only 5 cases' comment. Like, covid wasn't even on my radar but this movie terrified me. And then it became real.

To what end is all of this madness? Exile or enslavement or death of everyone not like these idiots? Have they not read any dystopian novels? Oh, wait, never mind...

I want Elon to catch COVID, and AIDS, and tuberculosis, and cancer. All at the same time. Mumps too, so he can stop trying to have a bazillion brats. All at the same time.

She said, "These are people who can be sent into war zones where there's been an outbreak of a new virus. Fear is not an option. If they feel it, they learn to push it aside."

1 of the best things state and local governments can do in light of the mass Federal layoffs happening now is to higher up all the extremely talented people we can now.

The character Dr. Erin Mears is based on Dr. Anne Schuchat. Dr. Schuchat was an EIS officer in 1988. www.cdcfoundation.org/content/meet...

Meet CDC's Anne Schuchat, a real-life virus hunter stopping deadly disease in its tracks

If a deadly disease, like the one in the movie Contagion, goes viral, then CDC's Anne Schuchat is the woman you want on your side.

Also gone: Many amazing, long-term staff members who recently were promoted and were in new probationary periods, new shining stars in their probationary periods, and experts who worked for the agency for years as contractors.

I think we should send in RFKrazypants. Without protective gear. And have him come back to the White House to brief Musk and Trump and Vance and Johnson.

EIS officers are heroes and truly the first responders to infectious outbreaks. We- all of us- are now immeasurably less safe.

La Pionera ✊🏽 @punchcolor.bsky.social · 14/02/2025

They are creating the perfect environment for mass deaths, dare I say, a reduction in population. Somehow they believe they are literally immune. They believe they are creating a “solution” they will never take responsibility for, and never be indicted for.

Yet again, cant help thinking “if Trump and Musk were agents of Putin and Xi, would what they are doing to weaken and destroy our federal government look any different..?!” Sure seems like an attack by our enemies

I remember reading a review of this movie when it came out, and the reviewer said that the heroes of the movie were simple government bureaucrats. Always underappreciated, frequently heroes.

So what exactly can we do? Call our congresspeople? I would rather make a call than write an email. Dumb question…I never know what to say! Is there a specific action I can tell them to take?
