A review of how [the CDC] tasked with fighting and preventing disease has spent hundreds of millions of tax dollars for failed prevention efforts, international junkets, and lavish facilities, but cannot demonstrate it is controlling disease.”

Imagine providing public statements like these and the receiving media doesn't question, doesn't push further, or deliver devastating contradictions.  Just imagine.   

Imagine saying things like this and not having to correct or revise your statements.  Imagine saying things like and being self-deluded that your statements are a public service.  Just imagine.  Imagine the bankrupt ethics, the deliberate lies that go unchallenged.  Imagine that. 

Imagine this being standard operating procedure . . . for 20 years. 

As I have noted periodically for twenty years, and it was roundly confirmed 4 weeks ago in the NY Times, CDC spins and cherry-picks the data it presents to the public, hiding most of what it has. Then it blames its 'outdated' IT systems for the problems, if it gets caught. As the NYT noted, 

The C.D.C. has received more than $1 billion to modernize its systems, which may help pick up the pace, Ms. Nordlund [CDC's spokesperson] said. “We’re working on that,” she said. 

So imagine having a record like that while receiving $1 billion with a B from the taxpayer you're purported to serve.  Make no mistake, there is no purporting, no purportment going on at all.  

Some have claimed that the CDC is a vaccine company.  What?  Some have claimed that it is a PR branch for the FDA or any pharmaceutical company peddling its latest unchecked medicine.  Nass goes even further, affirming that it's a PR firm with its own TV studios replete

CDC is not a public health agency.  It is a public propaganda agency that collects a massive amount of data. CDC marshals its huge data library to create presentations that support the current administration's public health policies.  

CDC also has state-of-the-art PR staff, as well as TV studios, and produces videos, radio spots, and an enormous number of press releases that are distributed to the media.  CDC hosts many journalists at its Atlantia headquarters. Free junkets successfully cultivate US health reporters.

And finally, to end this preface,

A 2007 Senate oversight report on the CDC noted the agency spent $106 million on the Thomas R. Harkin Global Communications (and Visitor) Center, and summarized its 115 page report with the following: “A review of how an agency tasked with fighting and preventing disease has spent hundreds of millions of tax dollars for failed prevention efforts, international junkets, and lavish facilities, but cannot demonstrate it is controlling disease.”

"CDC managed to spin these data into an appearance of terrible danger for little kids: [but]... if you parse the data by total number of cases, ... there were many fewer hospitalizations per number of cases for Omicron than for Delta."  https://t.co/FKZIrhfZuQ
