The seven words that Trump prohibited to use in official documents

"Transgender", "vulnerable", "fetus" and "diversity" are some of the expressions that should not be included in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Washington - The US government has banned the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) from using in official documents for the 2018 budget seven words included in a list, among them "transgender", "vulnerable", "fetus" and "diversity," according to the Washington Post newspaper.

Also, veto the use of "based on science", "based on evidence" and "right" in all official papers that the CDC prepare for your budget proposal for next year.

This was communicated by senior CDC officials to employees last Thursday, the newspaper reported, citing a policy analyst who participated in the meeting.

People who attended the meeting reacted with "disbelief," he said. An analyst was quoted as saying that he had never seen such a measure for ideological reasons.

The newspaper states that the words now prohibited are used, among others, in certain research projects and measures to fight against epidemics. And he cites as examples the programs for the prevention of AIDS among the transgender population or research on the consequences of the Zika virus in fetuses.

In some cases, alternative formulations are suggested to CDC employees, the paper said. The Trump Administration considers it a good idea to say instead of "on the basis of science" or "based on evidence" that "CDC bases its recommendations on science by contemplating the community's standards and wishes".

The CDC depend on the Department of Health, have more than 12,000 employees and an annual budget of about 7,000 million dollars.
