Just like in response to 9/11 when we created the DHS, we need a new Federal Department of #OneHealth. COVID could have taken us there, certainly H5N1 (et al H’s & Ns) should take us there, assuming the federal govt is serious about serving the public health needs of its constituents.

A reminder that the pandemic is not over. The only thing that ended back in May ‘23 was the legal emergency framework. The public communication around that fact was devastatingly poor and has allowed folks to think they can ignore COVID. And yet Excess deaths are happening and can’t be ignored.
