I've had to use the CDC lab to figure out a drug-resistant Trichomonas infection. Lots of very skilled people at that facility and this is a bad one to lose; it was the only lab that did those sorts of tests. There's not enough money in it for commercial labs.

How is there not enough money in it? Do only poor people get these sorts of issues? Serious question, no shade on poor people.

The millionaires in city center penthouses I have orgies with and sometimes meet in the spaceship-like waiting room of the fancy dermatologist in my home city and I say no.
