Musk has destroyed the early warning system the US uses to track potential pandemics and reduce the number of American deaths from them.
He killed USAID. That's the agency that was maintaining the 90 country early warning system that alerted US health agencies about new viruses.
Now we have no method of tracking and identifying potential pandemic causing viruses.
Some Americans will die.
Oh, by the way. He also killed the USAID food program that combated children’s' hunger around the world. As many as 45 million children may die from the resulting starvation.
OOps, I almost forgot. Musk also killed the program that saw USA reputation in Indonesia surpass that of Bin Laden for the first time ever. Indonesian opinion surveys before the USAID response to the tsunami catastrophe a few years ago shows Bin Laden at about 70% approval while the USA was about 30 % approval. After the USAID relief, the sane survey showed the favourable opinions reversed so the USA was favoured by 70% of Indonesians while Bin laden was favoured by about 30 %.
