CDC censorship order sparks outrage
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has ordered staff to retract journal articles to remove what are being called “forbidden terms” like gender, transgender, and LGBT.
The move, linked to President Donald Trump’s executive order, aims to align research with policies recognizing only two sexes.
A leaked email revealed the directive, causing panic among scientists.
Experts warn that it could undermine public health research, including studies on HIV and disease prevention.
Critics say the order violates free speech and scientific integrity.
Many CDC web pages on LGBTQ health and youth issues have vanished.
Scientists and journalists are scrambling to preserve crucial data before it is erased.
The confusion is spreading fear at the agency, with researchers unsure how to proceed.
Some worry even mentioning health disparities could be deemed what Trump and his supporters call “woke ideology” and lead to job losses.
