CDC Data Are Disappearing (www.theatlantic.com)
submitted 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by zlatiah to c/news
 

... content from the CDC’s Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System, which includes data from a national survey, has disappeared; so have parts of the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry’s Social Vulnerability Index and the Environmental Justice Index. The CDC’s landing page for HIV data has also vanished. And the agency’s AtlasPlus tool, which contains nearly 20 years of CDC surveillance data on HIV, hepatitis, sexually transmitted infections, and tuberculosis, is down.

They're really trying to kill off all the poor huh

It's deeper than that. Trump literally thinks disease, illness, deformities are "weakness" and that they must be eradicated.

Like Hitler, he doesn't understand genetics and that two healthy people can produce offspring that has issues. Genetics isn't perfect, "mistakes" get made.

Further, two healthy intelligent adults does not automatically beget a child who is a healthy and intelligent. Nor do two unintelligent parents automatically beget unintelligent children. (Ask me how I know the second one)

He will kill millions to "prove it."

"They were weak, if they weren't they wouldn't have died when we put them in conditions that would kill anybody" or some dumb shit is probably his thought process.

Trump and good genetics don't mix

Cognitive dissonance is a hell of a thing. I remember he secretly got the Covid vaccine while denying it even existed

They’re really trying to kill off all the ~~poor~~ queer people huh

I can almost guarantee you he thinks they all have AIDS, not even just HIV, just by virtue of being queer.
