Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Totally.

Plus, we have real-world remote work case studies from Scalewin and even a public health framework from the CDC on how to craft a success story.

There's a lot of ground to cover.

It is.

Yeah.

Not because their work was bad, but because their communication of that work was terrible.

To understand how to sustain success, we look at a framework from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the CDC, on developing a success story.

It might seem like a strange leap to jump from tech algorithms to a public health framework, but the CDC's methodology is universally applicable to any team.

And we're asking for, you know, funding for different programs.

So increase the proportional increase in the NIH budget, you know, asking for CDC funding for a CDC program to to explicitly track sleep.

And I think that was a This light bulb moment when I was in D.C. the first time is that there was no sleep tracking at the CDC.

That makes no sense.

You know, disease and sleep go hand in hand.

And you'll see something like the Ad Council that helped create that.

And those kind of projects, if you look back in the back end of some of these collaborations on different topics like that, they're often funded by federal funding for public health.

And when I was diagnosed, there was a very small program at the CDC that was about $250,000 a year.

I remember this is probably around April of 2020, so this is already a few weeks of lockdown.

They've now made the official statement that the Antiochian Archdiocese will accept all the CDC procedures that they recommend.

In my context, at my parish, that put me in a very difficult position because I was unwilling to bend on the mass stuff.

And at the same time, I'm a catechumen, so who am I to say anything? Now, privately, my priest was in agreement, but as I said, he is old.

All figures per serving of Hero Bread see Nutrition Facts on Hero.co. And at the same time, not thinking that I was in the wrong about the procedures, but trying to figure out how do you deal with this in an Orthodox manner? And that's kind of the conversation we're having now is, OK, we're six years later.

How do we as Orthodox Christians actually get back to an even baseline with all this stuff? Because it was coming from the hierarchs.

Metropolitan Joseph basically gave whatever the church does over to the CDC.

Yeah, and the advice you got was right on.

I, at least, am thinking pretty hard about the flu vaccine and the new COVID vaccine.

The AMA has stepped into this space because there's been so much tumult surrounding the longstanding CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices, ACIP, that they have established something else that's called the Vaccine Integrity Project.

And that's based at the University of Minnesota's Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy.

They feel that it's necessary for medical societies at large to step into this space and to help to provide a trusted voice when it comes to what you really need to be doing about vaccines.

Amina, don't make me laugh.

And so the census, what does the census have to do with your prostate? If I'm the Center for Disease Control and I'm not under the leadership of RFK Jr., all of this has an asterisk because we have crazy people running the country, but if I'm the Center for Disease Control and I need to know more about prostate, I have money for research and prostate health, I'm gonna look to the census, in addition to a number of other things, I'm gonna look to the census to help me understand which are the communities that are dealing with prostate, because I got research dollars that can go towards alleviating the harm that prostate cancer causes.

Which are the communities dealing with high blood pressure or diabetes? These are communities that I can funnel resources to or reallocate resources to in ways that I know are going to be more pertinent for them.

It's not to say that white men don't have prostate cancer, but there is an overabundance of it in our community.

Here in New York, state, local and national politicians are gathering at the site of the former World Trade Center towers today to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the 9-11 attacks.

A quarter-century later, more than 145,000 people are still being treated for illnesses related to the collapse of the Twin Towers, according to center from the CDC's World Trade Center health program.

That includes 57,000 cancer patients.

Nearly 10,000 people have died from 9-11-related illnesses.

Yeah, exactly.

The CDC, you guys, they're warning about an increase in rabies exposures and outbreaks since July.

So I guess the good news is rabies is preventable if you get treated before symptoms start.

I know it's like rabies.

We're not going to worry about cyclosporiasis anymore, but we've got rabies coming in quick in the back end.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are warning Americans, that's us, about the increase in animal rabies activity.

This has to do, obviously, with human exposure across the country during summer.

My niece actually had to get the vaccine for this.
