This is why it’s difficult for scientists to be taken seriously. It’s clear that many of them have been co-opted by people more interested in pushing a political perspective through the veneer of science than actually following it. It only makes one want to further distance oneself from these institutions when calling them wrong about something very obvious is labeled as “misinformation” and used to censor and silence you.
But moreover, the people in charge of “the science” are increasingly proven to be corrupt and/or wildly incompetent. CDC Director Rochelle Walensky certainly isn’t doing herself any favors.
The CDC is known for its ability to flip-flop on things based on how much pushback it’s getting from leftists on Twitter. The unofficial CDC motto seems to be “politics first, science maybe.” The inconsistency shows that the CDC is being run by anything but actual science and that its marching orders are coming from outside, moreover, it further reinforced the idea that they were just making this stuff up as they went along.
Let’s fast forward to Sunday, when Walensky had a livestreamed sitting-down and admitted that her data was coming from the place where you shouldn’t get it. It is clear that Walensky created CDC guidance following watching CNN reports.
“When the CNN feed came that it was 95% effective, the vaccine, so many of us wanted it to be helpful, so many of us wanted to say, ‘Ok this is our ticket out.’”

Ok… But then you got millions fired and excluded from society for not taking it.pic.twitter.com/Xcl7bUUrOi

Take the phone.
People were basing a lot of decisions regarding how they would conduct business and private lives on CDC guidelines. Businesses were effectively telling their employees that if they didn’t get vaccinated then they would be fired. The President of the United States tried to unconstitutionally force everyone to get the vaccine based on what the CDC was saying…
…and Walensky was crafting her guidance on CNN reports? The same network that called a riot that was in the middle of burning a city to the ground a “largely peaceful” protest and once asked if the missing Malaysian airliner had possibly fallen into a black hole? CNN.
People lost their jobs, their homes, their families, and more on the word of the CDC, an institution that we now know was getting its ideas from a network that was so bad that it’s consistently finished in last place.
At this point, it’s unclear why Americans should trust scientific institutions like the CDC at all. This joke has been terrible for a while, and it’s not funny. Many Americans lost their lives due to the network’s guidance. We now know that this network was not legitimately referred to as a news source.
