Chieftan asks above:
[[ Gotta wonder who is running the Center for Disease Control these days. Where the hell are they, what are they doing, and what have they got to say about all of this??!! ]]
They are a government agency, and like EVERY other agency of this government (no matter how large or small) have been told to SHUT UP and dance to the party line.
I wouldn't be surprised if employees of CDC have been threatened with discipline or worse if they "speak out" .... that is, speak the truth....
A Fishrrman prediction:
Watch for reports about exactly this within the coming weeks...
