CDC has done a 'disservice' to Americans. Nicole Saphier
But the CDC's problem is not messaging:
Case in point:
After the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inexplicably bypassed its expert advisory committee to authorize boosters for all young people, the CDC Director overruled her own experts' down vote of the boosters-for-all proposal.
That's the magic of a call from the White House.
But after the FDA and CDC rammed through the recommendation, they made sure the public wouldn't see the real-world data.
Despite repeated pleas to release all its data, the CDC only posted stats on boosters in people over age 50.
As a proxy, let's take a look at what the CDC just published on people 50 to 65:
Who are those three helped by a booster?
One study of breakthrough hospitalizations found 75% had at least four comorbidities.
The CDC has admitted it is withholding large portions of COVID-19 data - including on vaccine boosters - from the public because it fears
the information could be misinterpreted.
So the three people age 50 to 65 per million saved by a booster are almost certainly immuno-suppressed individuals, a subgroup for whom boosters have long been recommended.
Of course, the CDC doesn't disclose what medical conditions those few who died had - it only has 21,000 employees to collect that information.
We once again have to look overseas for reliable data.
An Israeli population study in the New England Journal of Medicine compared 'boosted vs. non-boosted people' with the primary vaccine series.
The risk of COVID death among non-boosted people under age 30 was zero - the same as it was among boosted.
The CDC said the reason for the slow release of data is because there is always a chance
it is not completely accurate.
A note for college administrators enforcing booster mandates:
The CDC claims it didn't release booster data because it feared the information would be misinterpreted...
No,
Yet public health officials continue to beclown themselves by demanding all Americans over age 12 get boosted.
A study found that boosters for young people
did not do much to prevent COVID-19.
On the bandwagon
Most of the media have fallen for it.
Throughout the pandemic, the New York Times and other outlets have only sourced doctors on the establishment groupthink bandwagon, dangled fear to young people and blindly amplified every edict government doctors fed without asking questions, just as the press did with 'weapons of mass destruction in Iraq'...
We've seen medical bandwagon thinking hurt us before.
The dogma that COVID spreads by surface transmission, children must be shut out of school and the barbaric separation of Americans from their dying loved ones.
Our public health leaders continue to make critical mistakes and affirm each other with groupthink while journalists give them a megaphone to broadcast their agenda, unchecked, failing to ask basic questions, like:
This week, one Times reporter finally picked up on what many of us have been saying about the CDC's deception.
Similarly, the CDC put out two highly flawed studies to promote mask mandates. Now the last people in America required to cover their faces are children, waiters, waitresses, servers, and staff - people who are powerless.
The American people are hungry for honesty.
They see the inequity of COVID policies and want the data straight, not politically curated by a small group of like-minded scientists.
Though not required everywhere, the CDC recommends that
children wear masks in school.
If I were advising President Biden, I would tell him,
A response to a national health emergency should warrant more data transparency, not less...
