Aurgh. I had a similar experience. My mom just died (💔) on the 30th of a 31-day month. I learned the hard way that we lose the whole month back unless they die on the 3rd of the following month. WTAF. Yet, the expenses for that month remain… Our tax dollars not at work. 😐

Most of my years here have been in PEPFARworld, so this is absolutely crushing. How much more of this destruction can we take… 💔💔💔 I wish the American people truly understood the short- and long-term implications of these political and anti-science actions. 😢

Thanks. ❤️ Also, I wish the media had communicated how much taxpayer money it costs to shutdown govt and then start it up again. Public would not have put up with it, methinks…

Yes! Love Cyndi! Saw her open for Tina Turner at Summerfest in MKE a gajillion years ago. I have been to a LOT of concerts and it was one of the best concerts I have ever seen. Both women were amazing!!

Anyone else feel like we went through +40-day shutdown for…nothing after tonight? This fed hates not working/getting paid, but hoped to get something of value for our pain! Wish the public knew how much taxpayer money it costs to shutdown govt and start it up again… 🤬

Yes. Yes, it will cost lives in the US & around the world. Thank you for raising awareness. 💚 CDC scientists took an oath to the Constitution upon entering. We take that oath and the CDC’s mission very seriously. We work 24/7 to keep Americans safe and doing our best to keep going amidst this chaos.

Thanks for the great post, Alt! Another critical part of our role is to communicate findings and translate those into policy and recommendations for, you know, control and prevention of conditions to the public. This admin RIFed many comms and policy folks across the agency…

It’s working. 😢 The admin’s adolescent pettiness distracts us from protecting Americans 24/7. Like other USG employees, we take our oath to the Constitution and the mission of CDC *very* seriously. It’s devastating to watch this administration dismantle our non-partisan public health system… 💚💪

Hate this for all of us who are furloughed, but if it means we get credits extended for Medicare/Medicaid/ACA, I’ll endure it without complaint. Wonder how many taxpayers know a shutdown costs $400M a day? GOP owns White House, Senate, and House. They own this shutdown.

Dr. Bubbly Bubblicious @mcbubblicious.bsky.social · 19/09/2025
Please keep in mind that there remain thousands of dedicated, brilliant civil servant scientists who took an oath to the Constitution upon entering office and believe so much in that oath and the mission of CDC to save lives that we remain at the agency doing the work. Please don’t abandon us!💚

@mollyjongfast.bsky.social please use correct terminology when you refer to measles in 2001 in the US: vax essentially ELIMINATED (NOT eradicated) measles in the US. Smallpox was eradicated. Thank you. 💚

Sad to see Melinda go after a distinguished career full of important contributions to public health. 💔 Happy she reminded folks that highly skilled, dedicated scientists remain at the agency still doing the critical jobs to protect the public’s health and keep Americans safe. 💚

And POTUS has never made any comments about the 500 shots fired at the CDC on Aug 8, 2025. 180 bullet holes in windows because some MAGA believed propaganda against Covid vax. Buildings won’t be fully functional for 1-1.5 yrs. Yet, they are pushing traumatized staff back to the office by Monday. 🤬

As it should be. This is insane. Also, RFK Jr needs to go. His policies are destroying public health (CDC, NIH, FDA, CMS) and endangering our national security. And, why is the media not covering how much changing DoD to DoW name will cost taxpayers? This is all so irritatingly ridiculous. 🤬

Dr. Bubbly Bubblicious @mcbubblicious.bsky.social · 06/09/2025
RFK Jr is an embarrassment to the country. Either he lacks competence to run the 2nd largest USG dept or this dismantling of public health is purposeful for evil gain. In either case, his ill-informed opinions/policies will kill Americans. When will MAGA minions realize this will hit them hard?

And…to assure the public there remain at CDC thousands of resolute scientists who continue to do the essential work to keep everyone safe. We took an oath to the Constitution upon entering our offices. We take that oath and CDC’s mission seriously. 💚 💪

Despite all the insanity of the past week, the Aug 8 shooting at HQ, and the devastating staff and budget cuts in 2025, thousands of scientists who do the critical and unbiased work remain at the agency. We took an Oath to the Constitution upon entering our offices. We take CDC’s mission seriously.

Dr. Bubbly Bubblicious @mcbubblicious.bsky.social · 28/08/2025
This is a dark day in our agency’s history, but scientists/experts like me with many years of service are still here, still working to keep Americans safe 24/7. We are exhausted, but our mission drives us. We took an oath to our Constitution upon entering our offices. We take that VERY seriously.💚

His daughter’s shirt was at once sweet and heartbreaking. I was so happy to see all the CDC folks there and CDC-related items on display (Snuggles 🥰). 💚 Hope Officer Rose’s family and law enforcement colleagues know how much we appreciate them all. Loved the words from Rodney Flowers, too. 💚

Dr. Bubbly Bubblicious @mcbubblicious.bsky.social · 18/08/2025
Where is the response from the WH? Where is Congressional outrage? This story has fallen off everyone’s radar. Also “no one was injured” is what the pols and media mention yet this was a severe emotional injury and will take thousands of traumatized CDC scientists and staff a long time to heal. 💔
010
Dr. Bubbly Bubblicious @mcbubblicious.bsky.social · 18/08/2025
Not “sort of,” they did. 500 shots started ~4:50p. 180+ bullet holes. Local ATL Fox affiliate left live coverage ~7p to air a 🏀 game. CNN (ATL) barely mentioned. Gunman believed disinformation about COVID vax. Blamed CDC. Media doesn’t think threat to thousands of scientists is important to cover?🤬

I am remote now but may fly back to ATL for it. I want to sign it and stand with my colleagues at the service or lining the streets. I am sure info will shared elsewhere 🥄😉 Thanks!

Thank you for you generosity and kind words of support for CDC. We are so thankful for Officer Rose. ❤️ Might I offer another perspective on nobody being injured? Some injuries are not visible. My staff are going to be working through their trauma/emotional injuries from this for a long time. 😢💔
