Are you suggesting the CDC purposely made mistakes on the handling of Covid? If so, which mistakes and why?
They made a myriad of mistakes. Why?
- Fauci covering his ass
- Fauci’s ego
- Fauci’s investments

Wow…the hatred for that man by cons is fascinating, in a warped kind of way.
Any evidence Fauci profited from Covid with his investments?
Are you jealous he made a very good income at the CDC?
You do realize, if he had chosen to work in the private sector, he could have made much more.
a plethora. He is heavily invested in pharmaceuticals.
doubtful. Average salary in the US for a doctor with his specialty after 10 years

How many lives would have been saved if democrat governors would not have been sending the infected elderly back to nursing homes to infect more of the elderly?

They were totally unprepared.
I would not go that far…but they could have done better. Compared to other countries, we did better than most. I guess they should have listened to you.
It was completely chaotic, hospitals didn’t segregated there IC units, nurses intermingling between them, lack of masks, lack of knowledge to touch on few things. And most of all, lack of leadership from CDC.
l reported here before media reported or anyone else did.
Let’s not forget the most egregious and long lasting ■■■■■■■■
- Acting as if there was no knowledge of the behavior of coronvirus’ and suggesting things to be done in direct opposition to known facts (like sending Covid Patients to nursing homes when we know how a respiratory virus acts and we knew that elderly and infirm were most at risk.
- Accepting anecdote as science and modelling policy on it (masks, distancing, closures)
- Modelling the metric for success on scientifically known ineffective methodologies relying on sporadic selective correlations and anecdotal evidence while ignoring known viral patterns.
- Making claims about the ineffectiveness of natural immunity that were pure nonsense.
And the truth is I and others, right here, pointed all of this out from the beginning.

I think at that point CDC and others were desperate to regain some control by throwing out stupidity in order to show American people they got a handle on this COVID. Thinking it was going to ensurer Americans.
Instead they screwed the pooch throughout that pandemic.
After 70 years and almost trillion dollars over those years one would think they, meaning CDC would have been better prepared.
Oh it wasn’t hindsight as one poster tried to claim…they were just unprepared and had nothing in place for major event.
Why did states and counties with mask mandates have fewer hospitalizations and deaths from COVID-19 if masks don’t worK?
The only claim that I remember anyone making about natural immunity is, it’s safer to get it from the vaccine.
well, it is true that Trump disbanded teh early warning pandemic department.
And he’s planning to do it again!
they didn’t and the information provided to make the claim is anecdotal crap.
and no, the CDC actually said the vaccine was “more effective” and that even if you already had covid you should still get it. Which is ■■■■■■■■■■ It is true that people previously vaccinated who contracted Covid were the most “immune” to its symptoms after that. It is not true that getting the vaccine after having had covid did anything for anyone. At that point you were either getting vaccinated for a strain you already had, or for one that had already run its course.

That’s right, blame it on Trump for CDC failures after decades and decades of suppose planing on major virus outbreak.
Silly libs…

more leftist spin. They were moved to another department where they did the same job.

Association between COVID-19 outcomes and mask mandates, adherence, and attitudes - PMC.
Overall, our analysis shows that the introduction of mask mandates at the state and county level is associated with a statistically significant and large decrease of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths.
Immunity wanes, so of course you should get vaccinated after you have covid. My doc says wait 3-5 months.
Did you read the article? One of the departments responsible for early warning was closed a few months before the pandemic.
It’s not there fault they weren’t around to help is it?
Why didn’t Trump fire Fauci if we was such a dud?
Again…that doesn’t explain decades of being unprepared for major virus outbreak.
What part about this that YOU don’t understand?
Maybe the early response team was prepared. Then they got fired! So…
That team was part of the planned response to a pandemic and they were sacked.
He also dismantled another pandemic team in 2018.
This can’t help, right?
