What a cold winter means for ticks and mosquitoes
Like many of us, the bugs have been hunkered down waiting for spring to return. CDC/ James Gathany; William L. Nicholson, Ph.D. (left). Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. With days to go until the official first day of spring, it was a tale of two winters in the continental United States. Colorado's mountains had record low snow levels, while Salt Lake City and Phoenix were among the cities who had their highest winter temperatures on record .

The CDC Has a Leadership Crisis
A 2023 law championed by Republicans requires the CDC have a director confirmed by the Senate. For months, though, it's had only acting directors--and the White House won't say when that will change. As the agency rotates through a cast of leaders, it's unclear when--or if--the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will get a permanent director under Donald Trump's second term as president. Following Jim O'Neill's departure as acting CDC director last week, National Institutes of Health director Jay Bhattacharya will now lead both agencies temporarily. It's the latest in a series of shakeups at Trump's CDC, which has lost about a quarter of its staff to mass layoffs carried out by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. last year.
