If the CDC was really looking to slow down its spread before it was out of control here, they would not have stopped all testing of it for weeks.
Like I said, their actions don’t quite match their words. I guess I was being generous with that statement. Is the failure to execute their stated policy because of incompetence, or is their true agenda different from their public one? That, I don’t know, and prefer not to speculate. I hope state and local public health officials and policies are better than the CDC’s so far, but I know some cities and states will see some incredible incompetence.
