@mcnado Who is going to be the first person to die of rabies?
No one should have to type that sentence in 2026, but here we are.
When I was one of hundreds affected by an outbreak of food-borne cryptosporidium, someone from the CDC called me. They were tracing everyone who had reported symptoms, and then contacting everyone else who might have eaten the food and urging them to get tested….impressive work!
I fear those days are long over.

Good morning!
Since Trump was re-elected, Forbes estimates—
💰His net worth is up $1.9 billion, to $6.2 billion
💰Eric’s is up 10x, to $400 million
💰Don Jr.’s is up 6x, to $300 million
💰20-year-old Barron is worth $150 million
And Jared became a billionaire last year.
Have a great day!
@luckytran OMG!
They really want us all dead!
The reason for the pause in testing is widespread layoffs, hiring freezes and resignations.
By July, the rabies team will be down to just one person with the clinical expertise to advise state and local officials, and the pox virus team will have none.
@NorcalGma2 it’s truly awful.
I’ve noticed a lot of places switching over to “cash only” which is perplexing as we don’t have an actual bank in town anymore. The last one closed a couple months ago, and even they didn’t have cash on hand, just an ATM (with limits on withdrawals)
other places are slipping in a surcharge for credit transactions without saying anything, and of course now there are “convenience fees” everywhere too.
I hope the repair solves the problem!
@notthatkindofdoctor @heidilifeldman Aww…that’s sad! So many places didn’t think donny’s cruelties would affect them, and now the chickens come home to roost.
they didn’t think that overturning Roe would lead to rural hospital closures, they didn’t think that getting kids off SNAP benefits would hurt local farmers….the list is long.
