…Why the CDC was impotent to do anything about the virus early in the year. The one, single MOST important viral outbreak mitigation is testing. In this case, it was non-existent and slow-rolled, right from the start. It’s the CDC’s whole reason for being – unless it’s being run by some sort of religious fuckass.
Redfield rejected the medical norms for handling the (AIDS) epidemic and called for a more faith-based approach:
“It is time to reject the temptation of denial of the AIDS/HIV crisis; to reject false prophets who preach the quick-fix strategies of condoms and free needles; to reject those who preach prejudice; and to reject those who try to replace God as judge. The time has come for the Christian community—members and leaders alike—to confront the epidemic,” he wrote. Redfield named the breakdown of family values and increasing number of single-parent households as key factors responsible for the spread of AIDS.”
This useless fatass needs a good case of covid himself, so we can look at filling a new vacancy at the CDC.
I was unsure what his dry, sarcastic demeanor masked at first, but it’s all clear now. Instead of using the WHO kit like South Korea and other sensible people, we waited for this moron’s garbage that did not work, while the virus spread uncontrolled around the country. The idiot is a long-standing political appointee with a bible up his ass, and no intention of “directing” the CDC towards anything but a morass of confusion.
