Trump continued assault on science and the CDC
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer at a press conference in Glens Falls, NY responded to the Trump administration hiding CDC data on coronavirus cases from the public:
“To have the CDC not be able to distribute publicly, the number of hospitalizations and the number of deaths is going to hurt us in our bid to end this crisis. Because when you don’t know the truth, and you don’t go after the truth, inevitably, you lose out. And I don’t know why the White House is saying they want to hide the numbers, but it makes no sense in terms of fighting this crisis. If you listen to people like Dr. Fauci and listen to the scientific experts, we would have been a lot better off than trying to sweep it under the rug, which is what the president and others try to do.”
