One of the CDC's weekly health publications was not published on its regular schedule, and some data about flu and vaccinations wasn't updated.

ATLANTA >> President Donald Trump’s administration has paused almost all external communication from health agencies, including the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, The Washington Post and The Associated Press reported this week.

The Trump Administration has frozen many federal health agencies’ communications with the public until at least the end of the month.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is going dark, along with other federal agencies within the umbrella of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. This week, the returning Trump administration told these agencies to stop talking to the public—for how long, no one knows.

Federal health officials have been instructed to temporarily stop any “external communications” to the public, according to two officials with knowledge of the situation.

With federal health agencies such as the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under a temporary freeze on public communications, some data and publications have not been released on their normal schedule.

Agencies affected include the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, U.S. Food and Drug Administration, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and National Institutes of Health, the Washington Post reported.
