I'm not defending the CDC. I am astounded at how poorly cities and counties record and report their own data and depend on the CDC. I want to see more decentralized recording and reporting. I have no idea how political things are at the CDC. Many there claim that they have had their budgets cut below workable levels. That's entirely consistent with the stated purpose of the current administration. We should get used to not having anything useful at the federal level.
