Trump's CDC is Already Killing Americans & Its Only Getting Worse w/ Dr. Rob Davidson - Thom Hartmann
Trump's FDA released dangerous and contrary-to-science guidance on the COVID-19 vaccine, CDC Director Monarez was fired by the White House after she refused to resign amid pressure to change vaccine policy and adopt RFK Jr.’s stance.
The same pressures forced the resignations of top CDC leaders and key vaccine specialists yesterday – Dr. Debra Houry, the C.D.C.’s chief medical officer; Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who ran the center that issues vaccine recommendations; Dr. Daniel Jernigan, who oversaw the center that oversees vaccine safety; and Dr. Jennifer Layden, who led the office of public health data.
As these top scientists are fleeing their roles and calling out the current Administration’s weaponization of public health in our country, with another former CDC leader saying “we should all be scared about the nation’s health security,” what do you think about breaking down everything that is happening with Dr. Rob Davidson who can lay out the dangerous current threats to public health and what he sees as most concerning based on his 25+ years as an ER physician? - Aired on 09/04/2025.
