Censor CDC scientists and ask them to withdraw papers from medical journals? This is not how it works, Mr President. Our response @bmj_latest on the Trump Executive Order and his "forbidden words" bmj.com/content/388/bm…

Key @cdc information and data supporting the US #HIV response are down to comply with Trump’s executive order to purge diversity, equity, and inclusion. We have seen this movie before, folks.
