Oh, ha, more of that CDC-is-my-peer-and-best-friend stuff! Somebody needs to alert the CDC at this point.

Do you even KNOW who the CDC are? Do you KNOW the purpose of their website? It's public awareness networking.

They write information that is approachable to even the most uninformed, such as to be as helpful and useful as possible. Their public educational website does not contain the discussion of a great deal of complex biological information, nor medical facts, because most people could not understand it, and, most people need basics like "do this," and "don't do that" and "call this number if..." and such.

Their website is accurate, I trust fully, but it hardly represents complex information along any comparable fashion as even the New England Journal of Medicine, in which verified and quite specific medical research is published for peer review. Even then, it's discussed in specifics among peers to the point of acceptance of the information or rejection of it or revisions, amendments. By peers. By persons with substantial education in physical and biological sciences.

The CDC simply informs the lay public on issues of emergency and cursory explanations.

And, what they state there and you now repeat disproves your very own original distortions. Glad you were able to straighten that out.
