He is NOT stopping states from sending the data to the CDC, merely requesting it be sent to HHS first. I can see the usefulness of having two places to record and analyze the reports. To heck with anti-Trump FB fascists.
Someone has to double check the CDC
“...raising concerns from health experts that it will be politicized or withheld from the public....”
I read these releases only to fine the guaranteed “but” that’ll be contained within
As if a mere journalists even THINKS of commenting on things scientific. Good grief, a grade school “volcano” science project is PhD level material to their simple minds.
I’m so angry about this.
After all the CDC did such a great job developing a Covid test. Also the clear and concise message they gave up front about whether or not the public should wear masks.
Oh.
Wait.
The CDC is deep state, big time. I don’t blame him for wanting the information first-hand. The CDC has an agenda to protect.
I don’t believe anything the left writes.
I was looking at the CDC web page yesterday. I was trying to figure out if its a government agency or not. They dont seem to be though they certainly must be getting govt money to operate. Now I am wondering who they are funded through. HHS?
There is nothing underhanded about this. First, state’s can still collect their own data from hospitals within that state. Second, This is information that should have been going to HHS in the first place as they regulate hospitals. This information is needed to make sure the concerns found in the below report are being met,
“Hospital Experiences Responding to the COVID-19 Pandemic: Results of a National Pulse Survey March 23–27, 2020”

After WOFL-TV exposed that massive fraud with COVID-19 case reporting, no wonder Trump no longer trusts the CDC (and may dump Dr. Fauci very soon).
