Instead of 'following the science,' the CDC and FDA 'altered' Covid guidance and 'suppressed' findings while under political pressure, accoridng to a 37-page report from the Government Accountability Office (GAO), a watchdog group which spoke with two former CDC directors, four former FDA directors and 17 employees who were involved with the US pandemic response.
As the Daily Mail reports, "They unearthed allegations of 'political interference' in scientific reports, raising fears that research was tampered with," and that "neither agency had a system in place for reporting allegations of political interference. It also said they had failed to train staff how to spot and report this."
The report defined 'political' interference as that which seeks to 'undermine impartiality... and professional judgement.' They set up an anonymous whistleblower hotline for 60 days which employees could call to report instances, and which received 'a few calls.'
