The New York Times made an eye-popping admission on Sunday regarding data collected by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) on Covid-19 vaccines.
In an article titled, "The C.D.C. Isn’t Publishing Large Portions of the Covid Data It Collects," reporter Apoorva Mandavilli writes: "For more than a year, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has collected data on hospitalizations for Covid-19 in the United States and broken it down by age, race and vaccination status. But it has not made most of the information public."
Mandavilli, who covers science and global health for the Times, reported that the agency has published "only a tiny fraction of the data it has collected" since the pandemic began, including data on booster efficacy for 18 - 49 year-olds, a tremendous chunk of the U.S. population.
Reasons listed include bureaucracy, sample size, and not being "ready for prime time," but one that's definitely set to raise lots of eyebrows is the claim that the data could be "misinterpreted" by Covid vaccine skeptics.
"The C.D.C. has been routinely collecting information since the Covid vaccines were first rolled out last year ... The agency has been reluctant to make those figures public ... because they might be misinterpreted as the vaccines being ineffective."https://t.co/hecPyHmWQn— Scott Morefield (@SKMorefield) February 20, 2022
From the report:
Last year, the agency repeatedly came under fire for not tracking so-called breakthrough infections in vaccinated Americans, and focusing only on individuals who became ill enough to be hospitalized or die. The agency presented that information as risk comparisons with unvaccinated adults, rather than provide timely snapshots of hospitalized patients stratified by age, sex, race and vaccination status.
But the C.D.C. has been routinely collecting information since the Covid vaccines were first rolled out last year, according to a federal official familiar with the effort. The agency has been reluctant to make those figures public, the official said, because they might be misinterpreted as the vaccines being ineffective.
Instead, health experts have been forced to rely on data from Israel and elsewhere to make decisions, the Times reported.
“..the data could be “misinterpreted” by Covid vaccine skeptics.”
Gee. I wonder why they are skeptical?”
It's sad. I used to be a Federal Contractor for them. They weren't bad back then.
It's all about the leadership. Back when Tom Frieden, for example, was the Director of the CDC, they famously put out a firearms-use-and-safety study that Obama illegally ordered, whose facts directly refuted the anti-gunners' party lines. It showed that there was a societal net-benefit to firearms ownership. Back then, they stuck to the science and the facts.
But since then, the CDC has become, as you say, a useless appendage of the Deep State and liberal Democrats.
I met a lot of full-time-employees of the CDC who were staunch conservatives... I'm sure now they keep their heads down.
Covid data will not be published over concerns it's misrepresented by anti-vaxxers
What a coinkydink.
They’re not conspiracy theories anymore.
They’re spoilers.
And yet the Branch Covidians on FR continue to insist that data from the CDC can be taken as absolute truth.
TOP-UP JABS Elderly and vulnerable Brits ‘to be offered Covid jab every six months’
I'd argue the biggest threat to the vulnerable in the UK is their Deep State and NHS.
I’ve been saying forever....CDC is just a stat organization. They have no power...but they feed people like Fauci.
CDC = unelected politicians
Lol!! Sounds just like what the FR $hot $hills will say, about this.
How long until they’re monthly??
If Apoorva Mandavilli from the New Yawk Slimes says it, it must be true.
Meanwhile, there's this aspect...
How many of Deep State's approved vaccinators, people who don't know the people they're sticking from Adam's housecat, know the difference between intermuscular and subcutaneous.
And then there's the problem of sticking obese patients who may need longer needles...
I NEED NEW CONSPIRACY THEORIES — ALL MY OLD ONES HAVE COME TRUE
—
1. The Democrats are colluding with various Alien invaders.
2. Various Alien invaders have replaced the Democrat top leaders including husbands and wives - notably two WH residents.
3. Various Alien invaders are in control of the MSN.
Hope those help you establish a new conspiracy balance so you can calmly get on with your life, until the Aliens come for you.
Yep....and, TPTB likely knew about this proper injection technique, based on their hidden studies!
Evil!!
And THAT is the bottom line, it's lying by omission. Statist bastards!

That's the problem with the left, especially the ones who've attended a university or even public school in the past 2-3 decades. They've been indoctrinated and told they are enlightened and that older people and rural people are dumb and/or evil.(especially poor white folk)
But not that VAERS data. Can’t trust that as of two years ago.
Oh and that DOD data? No good now. Suddenly found out it’s been bad data for years. A glitch that the DOD just didn’t catch until the data was recently leaked.
Steve Deace Faustian Bargain kept mentioning it, I kept hunting it, only to come up empty handed.
Now my question why are we using chemical names for well known by brand name. TO CONFUSE YOU! PLAQUENIL= Hydroxychloroquine IS THE BRAND NAME, MOST USED RA’LUPUS MED ON MARKET, SINCE 1955.

Contrary to what you hear, there is clear-cut medical evidence for the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine.
