CDC Director Rochelle Walensky Gets “Donkey Of The Day” For Covid Confusion

So, wait, I thought the rule was;

Critique the CDC or AUTHORITIVE source and you'll be labeled "Anti-Vax" or "Anti-Science"????



one of ya'll got pissy because I said there's an agenda to make Kyrie out as a demon because he didn't get the shot even though over a hundreds caught COVID over the last month and half while Kyrie has only been back a week or so.

 

[Actually6Foot3]

Damn. Pro vaxx shills avoiding this thread like the plague (pun intended)


Crazy when the director of the CDC is proving skeptics right. Y'all got supreme Court justices spreading covid misinformation shoutouts to that anchor for keeping the foot on her neck and not letting her Dodge that Democrat coached answer

And what’s coming in the next few weeks will be crazy

 

[ItzRailT]

As she should Fauci should get one for creating this whole Wuhan virus

We had a whole thread about this:

Walensky appeared to cheerfully reply that those dying of covid-19 were mostly people with preexisting medical problems: “The overwhelming number of deaths — over 75 percent — occurred in people who had at least four comorbidities. So really, these are people who were unwell to begin with. And yes: really encouraging news in the context of omicron.”

Outrage followed. Many deemed the CDC director callous, prompting a hashtag, #MyDisabledLifeIsWorthy. People opposed to mask and vaccine mandates used the quote to justify a raft of baseless claims, such as that mandates are ineffective at slowing the spread of the coronavirus, or that pandemic death tolls have been inflated by people dying from other causes. By Monday, the Republican National Committee was sharing the clip on its “War Room” channel on YouTube.

But it turns out that ABC’s editing distorted what Walensky really said.

This week ABC replaced its clips online with a longer, unedited version of Walensky’s interview. In that one, the CDC director prefaces her reply to Vega by touting “a really important study” of 1.2 million vaccinated people, which found that only a minuscule fraction of them — 0.003 percent — died of covid-19. Of the small number who did die, she noted, most of them had underlying health conditions.


That was the “encouraging news” Walensky was referring to: that vaccinations protect the vast majority of people. ABC’s original cuts made it sound as if the CDC director was happy that most deaths were occurring among people who were in poor health anyway.

Walensky and CDC officials spent several days trying to undo the damage after Friday’s broadcast.

But I highly doubt most of y’all verify your info. Smh.

It's amazing how much everyone (including the news media) has bungled COVID-19 and it's messaging.

She been on the job less than a year and whether she is lying or mistaken, she doesnt know how to self correct or admit she was wrong.

That said, this is why I read the info they release, not listen to the talking heads. Published papers are harder to confuse than a public speaker. Her saying this falsehood and not addressing it is going to immediately be construed as some larger plot soCDC gotta do better.

Its like regular news. If you dont fill in the blanks, someone else will, so to curtail that they rush to give you something. People hold onto that first thought, and its impossible to reverse course.
