So – I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at @USAID.
This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.
What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically. https://t.co/496aRBXYnM

It's at least encouraging to hear we're in agreement that we DON'T want Ebola. I was starting to question our desire to eradicate deadly diseases.

Cancelling a program that helps prevent the spread of a horrific and contagious disease isn’t an “oops”, it’s a potentially catastrophic mistake. https://t.co/BnCGROPTsU

Art Candee summed up the situation.
Elon Musk is inept and he's making us less safe.

It’s worth reminding people that Musk wants Dr. Fauci prosecuted for ‘endangering lives’.
Just a friendly reminder of another huge reason why Ebola didn’t kill you 10 years ago. https://t.co/HJcrnKqOrU pic.twitter.com/5lPbPeAGcD
