Prior to COVID, the CDC and vaccination programs in general had a sterling reputation for helping you a an individual. So much so that Amish and Hassidic communities would sometimes get vaccines at their recommendation. That reputation is now out the window, at tremendous damage to our public health.
- astrange 4y agoThe CDC has always “lied” in that it always gave advice no reasonable person would follow. That’s because that’s not their job - their job is to give you the risks without counting benefits or reasonableness. For instance, absolutely nobody follows the CDC’s cooking recommendations and they say women should never drink alcohol because they might be unknowingly pregnant. https://twitter.com/kerpen/status/1414390050008276994 https://twitter.com/kerpen/status/1414390050008276994
