Your Health is HANGING BY A THREAD!

Gone are the specialists tackling the DEADLIEST measles outbreak since the โ€˜90s in Ohio, along with dedicated workers who took to the streets to vaccinate children. Whatโ€™s happening in healthy communities? A once-vibrant health system is now a mere shadow of its former self!

โ€œNobody wants to swim in a community pool and come out with a RASH or DEATH,โ€ warns Lori Tremmel Freeman, executive director of the National Association of County and City Health Officials. But thanks to UNPRECEDENTED cuts by the Trump administration, weโ€™re all at risk!

A whopping $11 BILLION has been yanked from our crucial health programs, along with a staggering 20,000 jobs at national agencies that MANAGE local health efforts. Can you believe it? And the axe is still swinging, with more cuts on the horizon!

A flurry of public health leaders claims these cuts are CRIPPLING efforts to protect citizens from outbreaks and disease. It’s not just numbersโ€”it’s lives on the line!

โ€œThe endless cuts will leave us unable to fight pandemics and outbreaks!โ€ warns Michael Eby of Mecklenburg. Are you ready to be caught in the storm?

What Lies Ahead: A Health Catastrophe?

As the Trump administration proposes billions more in cuts to the CDC, experts are sounding the alarm. The nation’s health system is poised on the brink of DISASTER!
