RFK Jr. pushes the CDC back toward science, and the media goes ballistic and warns of death
By Jack Hellner
The media is going nuts because a woman at the CDC got canned, and a few others resigned. They say people are going to die because of this — they always say people are going to die. Here is the headline in WaPo:

They said all decisions were based on science, yet years later, Fauci admitted there was no science to support that costly and destructive edict. Yet no one was outraged, nor did anyone at the CDC resign for the false statements. The media certainly didn’t care.

Yet there were no protests or resignations.
Businesses were told to spend massive amounts of money putting up Plexiglass to protect against COVID, but months later, a New York Times report said this could make things worse:
