      The CDC doesn't deserve its reputation, it's obvious its task isn't to look after people's health, it's just to serve 'the economy'. It was like that during the AIDS crisis, COVID, and now.

      Liberals are now Trumpian in their way.

      At this point I really prefer the GOP's excuses for being horrible people which often boil down to "Fuck you. We wanna own the libs." If you're going to be awful - don't lecture. It's so much better than the "Trump would be worse" moralizing, rationalizing, and lecturing excuses of the liberals.

    In their mind, there is no reason to test for anything if they aren’t going to do anything with the results. They won’t do anything because the CDC has already lost so much credibility any guidance they give will cause half of the population to do the opposite thing. If pundits and officials were honest with the public, they would just explain that the CDC has become a defunct entity, and that it has failed at its only purpose: public health. They can’t do anyt meaningful public health work without public trust or the will to wield any kind of authority (which they don’t have). They won’t say any of that, so instead any charitable reading by liberals seems inexplicable instead of malicious and irresponsible.

    the-democrat "You should be thanking us, just think of how much money we save by not doing this testing! I mean, it's not like we'd do anything about it anyway, so why bother?"

    Also, Within 6 months someone will downplay the severity of H5N1 by saying that the flu is just like COVID lathe-of-heaven

    You should already be masking to prevent Covid. If you're not, you should really start. It's all downhill from here.

    Mandy Cohen - Biden's handpicked stooge director at the CDC is really "following the science".

    In the west, life is cheap. The occidentals don't value life like proper and civilized humans do.
