[quote=Anonymous]In answer to OP's question, the Trump administration is actively suppressing publication of updated information about avian influenza, specifically some new information about transmission between household cats and humans. I have a relative who is a veterinarian and she is quite angry about this.

This CDC MMWR on avian influenza was supposed to have been published 2 weeks ago and was not - the first time the MMWR was not published in 60 years. Today, they very briefly posted, then removed the article.

[b]C.D.C. Posts, Then Deletes, Data on Bird Flu Spread Between Cats and People[/b]

"In one household, an infected cat might have spread the virus to another cat and to a human adolescent, according to a copy of the data table obtained by The New York Times. The cat died four days after symptoms began. In a second household, an infected dairy farmworker appears to have been the first to show symptoms, and a cat then became ill two days later and died on the third day"

Apparently the party of "freedom" is actually about actively suppressing and censoring scientific updates.
