The US is already out of the WHO, which means our country has no "forward warning" of global health threats. With the CDC gutted, ebola could easily come to our shores and we would have no idea until it is way too late.

Fun times.

Worried about another pandemic and more foodborne illness, and the Trump administration not being able to handle it.

I don't feel this is making America healthy again.

The plan calls for steep cuts to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which would see its budget reduced by more than 40% under the administration’s proposal.


Rural MAGA will be impacted, as well.

The proposal would also eliminate a number of rural health programs at HHS, including grants and residency programs for rural hospitals and state offices. Other rural health efforts, such as black lung clinics, would remain but be housed in the new AHA’s primary care department.
