Some of the CDC's main channels for communicating urgent health information to the public have gone silent.
Diseases are spreading. The CDC isn't warning the public like it was months ago

altCDC will be here for you but we want to see a Shadow Cabinet of experienced, loyal, Americans to provide official updates.
"Shadow cabinets" are well established in UK and elsewhere.
Main challenge for Dems is figuring out who would be the shadow ministers/Cabinet Secretaries.

But it's a necessary step.
Idea going around: Democratic leadership could ASAP name an "alternate" HHS secretary--someone to provide public updates and health information. And "shadow" leaders for other depts too, with press conferences, policy initiatives, budgets, speeches.

Some of us at altCDC are sportsball fans, but all of us are fans of Trump getting booed loudly anywhere, and especially on his NYC home turf. Love to see it.
MASSIVE booing for Donald Trump at the Knicks game during the National Anthem:

We at #altCDC love books, especially stories of public health. Some of those are wild! Here’s a classic we recently recommended.
GM!
Public health is full of stories - disease detectives, responses to unexpected conditions, and people connecting.
The Ghost Map covers the 1854 Broad Street cholera outbreak in London, an early example of epidemiology.
What are your favorite public health stories?
