EMERGENCY EPISODE: Trump Regime Launches Full-Scale Assault on CDC - Meidas Health

Dr. Vin Gupta and I break down the breaking news unfolding now

I just recorded a special emergency episode of Meidas Health with Dr. Vin Gupta because what’s happening at the CDC right now is nothing short of catastrophic.

We are watching a full-scale revolt inside the CDC—sparked by the Trump regime’s political interference in science. Here’s the truth:

  • The government announced on social media that CDC Director Dr. Susan Monarez was no longer working for the agency.

  • But Dr. Monarez’s lawyers, Mark Zaid and Abbe Lowell, immediately hit back with a powerful rebuttal: “Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign.”

  • Their statement exposed the dangerous political agenda at play: “First it was independent advisory committees and career experts. Then it was the dismissal of seasoned scientists. Now, Secretary Kennedy and HHS have set their sights on weaponizing public health for political gain and putting millions of American lives at risk.”

  • After news of Monarez’s ousting, we learned at least four senior CDC officials have already resigned—including the head of the Zoonotic Division, the medical officer, and the head of the vaccine unit.

Why is this happening? Because Dr. Monarez refused to bow to RFK Jr.’s anti-vaccine quackery. He demanded she rubber-stamp reckless directives gutting access to COVID vaccines. She refused. So the regime declared her out. Quick reminder: she was Trump’s appointee and was confirmed to the role about one month ago.

Instead of making vaccines accessible through pharmacies, the Trump regime is forcing people to go through a doctor first—and then, unbelievably, encouraging lawsuits against doctors who prescribe them. This isn’t public health. It’s sabotage.

And let’s not forget: just weeks ago, there was a domestic terrorist attack on the CDC building by an anti-vaxxer radicalized by MAGA rhetoric. A heroic police officer was killed in the line of duty, hundreds of bullets fired at a U.S. government building. And yet Trump and his cronies said nothing. Not a word. Not a shred of support.

This is all part of the same campaign: to undermine science, weaponize public health, and put lives at risk for political gain.

As Dr. Vin Gupta explained on the show, this isn’t a partisan issue. Science doesn’t care if you’re a Democrat or Republican. Vaccines save lives. But RFK Jr. and Donald Trump don’t care about science. They care about consolidating power, no matter how many people die in the process.

That’s why we created Meidas Health. To fight back against disinformation with truth. To bring on real experts when the government silences them. And to keep you informed as they try to bury the facts.

This is a breaking story, and we’ll keep exposing the truth. Watch this emergency episode of Meidas Health with Dr. Vin Gupta. Share it. Spread it. New episodes of Meidas Health can be found on the MeidasTouch Podcast audio feed.
