Full resignation letter from Demetre C. Daskalakis, a CDC leader, does not hold back. "The recent shooting at CDC is not why I am resigning. My grandfather, who I am named after, stood up to fascist forces in Greece and lost his life doing so. I am resigning to make him and his legacy proud."

Dr. Daskalakis pulls no punches about what lunatic RFK Jr. is doing to the CDC. His letter in particular is not merely one of resignation--it's a DIRE WARNING of how the health and well-being of Americans are being seriously endangered by ignorant and crazed ideologues. Please pass this along!
