Every ECF member should read this letter, save it and disseminate it to as many people as possible.
Difficult to ask people to read beyond a sensationalized headline these days. I fear "two" whole pages is more than some folks can handle. I printed it out and nobody knew who/what "WHO" is. :( (But they did seem to know what time the Kardashians were on).

Unfortunately, you are correct. If it's not a "tweet" it must not be important.

I am going around to as many local vendors in my area with the CASAA display and business cards asking for their support to increase CASAA membership. I have printed out this letter as one more piece of information to give them and to share with their customer base.

I would like to suggest that everyone email a link to their local news outlets asking them why they have not picked up the story. It is all the buzz on all of the radio shows in the UK. It could generate a lot of good press for us. I have hit my all 3 local TV news outlets here in the twin Cities and the 2 news papers.

I sent them this link

The uk is all a buzz about the scientists that sent a open letter to WHO. Maybe you should do a story on it

Q: How many public health specialists does it take to change WHO

I sent it to the editor of my local paper on 5/21 along with a link to the Drexel University study. To date I have received no response or seen anything in the paper. I'm still hoping, though.
