not be a general public concern, since it doesn't possess the potential for a pandemic...unfortunately, our current HHS Agencies are NOT properly staffed or funded...as evidenced by all the DOGE cuts along with having a totally incompetent Director...RFK Jr....and thus far, the only expert information provided to the public about this disease is from the IDSA...not the CDC. People have questions...they need answers...but this administration is spending its time on infighting, rather than ensuring that our case tracking and data collection are being carefully monitored so that outbreaks don't occur...

Note that the incubation period for a new infection is anywhere from 1 to 7 weeks...and there is no cure or vaccine available. With an incompetent HHS/CDC, this low risk disease becomes a threat for many more people than it should.

btw, are you at all concerned with having RFK Jr. as head of HHS?
