I can tell you with absolute certainty that the CDC often does know about outbreaks and events before it's generally known to the public. Usually these instances are only of interest to the local communities they are operating in. This is of a different magnitude, and while they haven't slept on the job there's been both external factors and misjudgments in the response that have left them playing catch-up.
- justforyou 7y agoYou know a handfull of people at the org, and were downplaying problems at the CDC last month. The CDC slept on this during critical periods, and employees at the CDC did not step up and whistleblow when there was a chance to have a meaningful impact on the spread of the virus. Stop making excuses for them.
