The Biria is black A cruel disease. It hardens, scars and lungs, he moves his breath and brings tuberculosis, heart disease and cancer. Baggy Repetitive threat to miner, It is Preventive by Controlling exposure to make powder in pain. We know that federal scientists Trump Administration now Wants to delete goals. That is the mistake that threatens them all.
In MarchSecretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., some restructured 20,000 agencies staffthose who do everything Verification of food In order to investigate HIV brushes. They were among them in April About 873 1,300 people National Institutes of Occupational Safety and Health, $ 363 million agencies that guarantees the reliability of firemen respiratory breathing, surgical gear and construction safety monitors and oversees most other aspects Workplace security.
Niosh scientists’ decision to fire, it is to cut it with such genius Lead poisoning Prevention Office In CDC and By forcing resignation FDA Trust the Official Vaccine Security-Prump to a basic blind place of the administration: people will not function in mines or fight fires or drive cars or take new drugs, turn Don’t think they are safe. And they are not safe trump “Golden Age“Because the economy is missing those who test their workplaces and equipment.

Niosh is well known as most knowing the most, as is the institute Valuation mask performance Covid Pandemian. But about 50 million employees carrying some types of breaths, Cam Mackey, President of the International Security Equipment Association, tested and Certified by Niosh.
“Many people never heard of this agency, so it can’t do anything. In fact, the opposite is true,” says Mackey. “It doesn’t do anyone else, and probably another organization wouldn’t do it. The dull is niosh, the staff will be sick. And the staff will die.”

Several Niosh work cuts 210 Morgantown, W. VA, Lab, get. who started In 1967 as Appalachian Respiratory Disease Laboratory, he is studying a black lung disease to apply for coalty treatment protest movement. The laboratory is running Free lung performances For miners, which promises a 1969 law, but now it appears in danger.
The work they lost the scientist Morgantown is Catherine Blackwell, he put his administrative authorization from his research position. It examines what happens with the immune systems of the people and other pollutants in buildings, cannabis or hemp dust, firefighters breathe and coal powder.
It tells American scientific that his entire branch was turned off. As a young researcher, he chose the science of government, because he will benefit everyone’s work.
“Staff will be safely safer,” he explained, if no one tests masks and respirations.
Elsewhere, the institute makes a study of the death of the firefighters programResearching deaths and security recommendations. Smoke, smoke and smoked around the fire protocols were looking for cancer rates among the firefighters. They save about $ 71 million a year in medical costs and lost work, and it is more important in 15 and 45 lives a year, according to A 2017 Rand exam. Only the economic benefits of the six niosh program, including the study of fire cancer, exceeds the entire research budget of the Institute 2023 American Journal of Industrial Medicine inform.
As Niosh case study Restricted the rules concrete Asphalt milling machine dust is associated with lung cancer. They saved hundreds of lives, economic benefit from $ 304 million in $ 1.1 million per year. Highway construction work is already A dangerous celebrityThe foam; Adding risks for cancer is cruel to build the rest of the passages and roads.
Without Niosh, private industry will not receive its work safe from security equipment. We know from the pandemic, Niosh appeared on the market in the market when he imported N95 and KN95 masks. About 60% failed Tests. “Businesses need to earn money and this type of research costs money,” says Markey. “That’s what the government is for this type of research.”
Pandemia also teaches us the deeper lessons about safety and confidence that Trump and his allies seriously phase, and not only with Niosh Lay-Off. Rfk, jr., A “Proven threat to public health“The Maggie Fox Health Journalist wrote in November American scientificresisting risks at risk Texas measles brush, No it is Last Last Positiont MMR vaccine. By Removing Peter BrandsFDA did the hardest part of the vaccine Ensure scientific confidence In the starting point of operation, the vaccines hardened the vaccine, Kennedy put us on the fence in the fence of the vaccine in the pandemic. For example, consider Poor pandemic pandemic of Vladimir Putinen RussiaHowever, the government’s Trump Most want to emulate. Despite the first corner of Russia in 2020, Only 19 percent The population was inserted a year later. That is No one trusts A vaccine was pushed Authoritarian series liar. Trump is something that can remember.
RF, JR. has proposed that around 20% of HHS employees who fired it would return “Because we will make mistakes. “That is, the open acceptance of incompetence or, the policy reported, debt. However, it is intended to fold niosh to be a healthy American administration, which is not available for work safety Listed priorities. Why no one wants this guy to run a lemonade stand, much less Federal agency of $ 1.8 billionIt remains a mystery.
What no one wants is to wear a breathing area that does not trust, Mackey, official security equipment. “The promise of staff is life that we will give you life and at the end of the day you can go home your loving. And that’s the challenge here. The staff are losing.”

After all, some 125 million US employees use personal protection equipment In the job, nurses paint spills to construction workers. And because of cuts to Niosh, Mackey has added, “they will be at risk and people will move away from manufacturing work, which will be more dangerous to manufacturing work.”
As a result of the consequences More accidents And the disease will rise, medical costs, along with cost of employee compensation, decreasing productivity. Businesses that pay attention to the best security practices Save money. And safety rules, drugs to build roads, are allowed industries. from pharmacies Construction, first to grow. People like their medicines and their work to be safe.
Until a few are considered, agencies like Niosh are glue that holds the economy together. From Pure food and drug action 1906, which brought Fari Federal Coal Pain Health and Safety Act 1969, passed under pressure Black lung movementThe laws created by the Health Agency are those of serious or eliminated cuts, the only type of manufacturing economy made by Trump He says he wants to get it.
“That’s the risk here,” says Mackey. This really puts a motorized motor in any type of Renaissance. “
