Our lead story this month covers the deepening outrage at the damage done to the CDC and the health of Americans from the failure to allow CDC to fully lead the COVID response. In addition we are publishing an unusually frank letter from a former CDC director and an open letter from more than a 1,000 current and former CDC employees highlight the breath and depth of the anguish. Other reports cover the proposal by a group of epidemiologists to reduce or remove Covid-19 restrictions to hasten herd immunity, and recommendations from the National Academy of Medicine on who first to vaccinate against Covid-19. Finally, read the announcement about our upcoming salary survey so your institution can participate. Lastly we have an upsurge in new positions being advertised. Happy reading!

CDC should be at the forefront of a successful response to this global public health emergency. We urgently call upon the American people to demand and our nation’s leaders to allow CDC to resume its indispensable role."
