Volunteers Launch Archive of Pre-Trump CDC Website
The RestoredCDC.org site revives public health data removed or altered under Trump administration policies.
- RestoredCDC.org replicates the CDC website as it appeared on January 20, 2017, before changes made during the Trump administration.
- The archive restores pages on topics like HIV, trans health, and reproductive healthcare that were removed or altered under Trump policies.
- The site is hosted in Europe and was built by volunteer archivists, including public health professionals and web developers.
- Unlike other archives, RestoredCDC.org aims to recreate the original navigation and functionality of the CDC website for ease of use.
- The archive does not update dynamic data, such as current disease outbreaks, which remain available only on the official CDC website.
