process has been completed, the update language will be posted," Jason McDonald, a CDC spokesman, told CNN. Denying any political connection to the drama unfolding at the CDC, researchers have questioned the administration’s removal of COVID-19 data management from the CDC and transfer to the federal government, which occurred on July 10. The change “has caused confusion, both in hospitals and among public-health

departments that work to provide data to the CDC,” according to Nature Research. “Measures must be implemented immediately to ensure that the transition is managed in an open and science-friendly way, and that politicians do not use the change to bypass researchers and sway the public-health response to the pandemic to suit their narrative. Many say that the Trump administration has tried to do this repeatedly throughout the pandemic.” The president has repeatedly rejected the

scientific conclusions of his own government about estimates for a widely available vaccine and the effectiveness of masks in reducing the spread of the virus. As Peter Baker from The New York Times reported, “In a remarkable display even for him, Mr. Trump publicly slapped down Dr. Robert R. Redfield, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as the president promised that a vaccine could be available in weeks and go ‘immediately’ to the general public while diminishing the usefulness of masks despite evidence to the contrary.”
