As I recall, the CDC has sucessfully:
- made too little vaccine
- made the wrong vaccine
- made too much vaccine and had to throw it away
- disqualified select vaccine makers for no known reason
No one wants to underestimate the POSSIBLE severity of ANY
national/global health issue.
But do ya think we might get some bang for the buck with CDC leadership a little tiny bit better than freshman test tube washers?????
I’m only an mechanical engineer - not a biologist or other med school wannabe - but I’ve not heard a whole lot of success stories coming out of the CDC for many years.
Didn’t they just lose control of their environmental conditions in Atlanta like a couple of months ago??
Now how incompetent is that? I did indeed manage cleanrooms for a while and losing HVAC systemic control is
rank foolishness and neglect.
So we need a couple more billion $’s to send ACORN out to tell Chicago’s south side to wash their hands?
Personnally, I propose we mandate that they stop breathing.
That way we reduce man-made global warming AND stem the flu propogation/adaptation.
Sorry for the rant - but it was better to let it out than slit my parrot’s throat (even if the little sucker is potentially an avian flu secret agent)
Just curious - when do we get dog flu or cat flu? These options have so much more potential for creating mass panic and further governmental control.
We can live without the governments money, but the government can’t live without ours. Starve the beast.
