Revolving door – Deborah Birx is now CEO of Armata – Here is my shocked face 😐
From here:
“... Deborah L. Birx will succeed Dr. Brian Varnum as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, effective immediately. Dr. Birx will also join Armata's Board of Directors.”
Simultaneously:
“.. announced that it has entered into a credit and security agreement with Innoviva Strategic Opportunities LLC, a wholly‐owned subsidiary of Innoviva, Inc. (Nasdaq: INVA) (collectively, "Innoviva"). The gross proceeds of the credit agreement at closing are $25 million before transaction‐related expenses.
Looks like Merck had a hand in things.

Did you see Del Bigtrees interview with Scott Atlas? Atlas calls Deb and Tony “low level thinkers” who couldn’t even qualify for a position in Atlass university department. Deb never brought data or studies to meetings to justify her Karen crazy directives and she thought Atlas was crazy for actually following science. Low level thinkers control our government. And all the low level thinker citizens are begging for more.
These freakin’ scumbags…. I can’t say the quiet part out loud. God help us.
