The censored testimony of CDC Director Julie Gerberding

Posted on Wednesday, October 24, 2007

Climate Science Watch has obtained a copy of the testimony on the health impacts of climate change as drafted by Dr. Julie Gerberding, Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This draft testimony was substantially cut by the White House before Dr. Gerberding was allowed to testify before the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee on October 23.  See Details for the document.
