CDC officials say 'lives and money' lost by delayed White House coronavirus response: report
By Justine Coleman - 05/20/20 09:43 AM EDT

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) officials said “lives and money” were lost because of the delayed coronavirus response by the White House, CNN reported Wednesday.

The CDC had proposed a global advisory advising against air travel about a week before an alert was published in mid-March, according to documents obtained by CNN. This delay caused the U.S. to lose vital time to fight the pandemic as 66,000 European travelers entered American airports every day.

CDC officials told CNN that the agency’s plans to combat the coronavirus pandemic were crippled by the White House, which they said prioritized politics over science.

Yawn. According to the polls no one is buying what they're selling, but they keep trying.

Of course it's Trump's fault.  Just like Bush was accused of blowing up the dikes surrounding New Orleans.  Keep throwing this stuff out and people will start believing it.  Leading sheep to the slaughter.....

More like a whole herd of bulls shitting.

CNN is fixated on Trump. Immune to facts, CNN is the OCD network.

Typical CNN Fake News - they want you to believe that this is an "official" CDC report, but instead it is just the word of six unnamed employees, as assisted by leaked internal documents.
"If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people."    -Calvin Coolidge

Yep. An agenda opinion masquerading as the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

This is CNN.

Let's seeeeeeee ...

People entering the US from China forbidden: Announced January 31, 2020, effective February 2, 2020, https://www.cnn.com/2020/02/02/us/coronavirus-us-travel-restrictions/index.html

Iran travel ban announced: February 29, 2020, https://www.statnews.com/2020/02/29/trump-administration-expands-coronavirus-travel-ban-to-include-iran/

Trump suspended travel from Europe: March 11, 2020, https://news.yahoo.com/trump-suspends-travel-from-europe-for-30-days-as-coronavirus-cases-continue-to-grow-014314635.html

European travel ban extended to include the UK and Ireland: March 14, 2020, https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/14/white-house-adds-uk-ireland-to-travel-ban-129470

What actually was done doesn't really match the annoymorous bureaucrats' claims parroted by CNN. Unsurprisingly.
I am not and never have been a leftist.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

It sure is easy to Monday morning quarterback, isn't it?

Given the fact that no one really knew what we were dealing with (and truth be known, still don't) things moved at a very fast clip, imho.  Although "they" say that they virus was here prior to gaining notoriety...as @PeteS in CA 's timeline shows...things were absolutely being done. And the shutdowns started in March...a mere 2-3 months ago. That seems like a lifetime ago. So maybe that's what is being referenced.
