Alternative sex and gender health info removed from federal site

MSNBC -  Public health information related to LGBTQ care and to HIV was scrubbed from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s website Friday as the agency seeks to comply with President Donald Trump’s sweeping executive orders.

The CDC’s main HIV page was still accessible as of Saturday afternoon, although a disclaimer at the top states that the agency’s website “is being modified to comply with President Trump’s Executive Orders.” Pages that previously contained HIV data — including resources for health care providers, information on racial disparities and data on transgender people, gay and bisexual men — have been removed and remain unavailable as of this writing.
