So any organization which impinges on liberty shouldn't exist? The IRS, fire departments, police departments?

  The problem is that the CDC has squandered trust. If my local fire department behaves in a way that manifests immense mistrust in the neighborhood, sure as hell I wouldn't want them to exist. Fortunately, around the country, fire department people are the nicest, kindest, inspiring leaders.

    If your local fire department made masks mandates part of the fire safety code they'd be just as hated in that neighborhood. No matter how nice, kind and inspiring the people who work there are.

    Kind of helps when your job is fighting fires and not preventing people from infecting their loved ones in the name of personal freedom.

  IRS? Yes. I'm OK with abolishing the others too. Volunteer (only) fire departments can stay.
