This is as much the CDC's fault, it seems like, digging in to the underlying sources.

  This is the FDA's wheelhouse. CDC handles epidemiology.

    epidemiology > the branch of medicine which deals with the incidence, distribution, and possible control of diseases and other factors relating to health. disease > a disorder of structure or function in a human, animal, or plant, especially one that produces specific signs or symptoms or that affects a specific location and is not simply a direct result of physical injury. Is this not a disease? One of which the actual cause is still unknown and symptoms hitherto unseen? I guess it could still ultimately be the result of physical injury to the lungs, but it still seems up in the air. You may still be right, but I don't think it's as simple as "CDC handles epidemiology".

      They don't regulate the use or sale of controlled substances.

        Do they regulate funding of research around either the material or its affect on the human body?
