Yeah, why would health officials ever need to travel anywhere? Let the diseases come to them from now on!

Dear citizens of the United States, I think we are putting you on hold for the next four years. Thank you and have a nice time.

Many of the citizens are okay, it's most of the government you gotta worry about. But yeah I don't blame you for quarantining that disease.

I know, but when you have pneumonia, you don't leave your lungs outside when you visit a friend. Get well soon ❤️‍🩹

Same NIH where this guy ran a decades long scam https://apnews.com/article/misconduct-alzheimers-parkinsons-research-nih-297a61dc69cb18965015381a911197ec

If they’re saying this is now because of DEI stuff, that’s just more optics and politics to cover up decades of NIH fraud and debauchery
