Description

In this bonus episode of Paging America, Miles Baker and Dr. Rob Davidson sit down with Yolanda Jacobs, Army veteran and president of AFGE Local 2883, the union representing thousands of workers and scientists working at the CDC.

While RFK Jr.’s Senate testimony dominated headlines, this conversation centers on the people inside the CDC and the atmosphere of fear and paralysis after mass resignations and a campus shooting.
