Another absolutely horrible take by #FireWalensky, @CDCgov

“If you go two years without getting that infection, without getting that protection from infection and then all of a sudden, boom, everybody from zero to three years gets RSV, you see the impact on health care.”
Except. That's NOT WHAT the data shows

As we can see, the biggest spike is in 0 to 6 months, and in comparison to 2018-2019, it is much greater. Roughly, per 100k, 130 versus 70, and it is still spiking.

Second biggest spike is in 6 to 12 months, at almost 80, versus 30 at
its highest.

In the 1 to 2 year olds, almost 40 this year vs. almost 20.
(The Y-axis is higher this year because of more cases).

If what Walensky is saying was true, we'd expect to see the 2 to 4 year olds screaming higher.

It's not.

Ok. Do not panic. This is not a Fearbola situation.

Our @CDCgov has it completely under control.

A quick thread on THE MISTAKE THEY STILL HAVE UP ON THEIR GUIDANCE PAGE.

You cannot make this up.
Clinically UNSTABLE is linked to guidance for clinically STABLE.

@CDCDirector, infamously wearing the Scarlet Letter (stands for #FireWalensky), has a song that she'd like to sing to you.

🧵
No masks in hospitals? Not a single justification has been made by the CDC.

It was just a decision made with, and for, the nursing home industry.

Just like the 5 day isolation policy was made with, and for, the airline industry.

Who has had more CDC briefings?
Would you believe Trump?

It's because #FireWalensky is just another political hack in a cloth mask.

So, is it any wonder that #FireWalensky tried to deflect attention from her abysmal performance by calling for a review of the CDC.

Which happened.

If you only did 25% of a school project, what grade would you get?

What grade should we give the @CDCDirector, since she is making the decisions with just a small group of buddies?

Center for Disease Control and Prevention.

Prevention.

🧵
Let's have the CDC give us some info to decide her fate.

Per Dr. Kristie Clarke, CDC's lead author of a massive serological study, found 75% of all kids have had CoVid.

Seventy-five percent.

Think about that. Whatever Post Polio Syndrome is going to hit in 5 to 40 years? Image
We are now all strapped onto that ride. And there was no minimum height requirement.

It just kills me that the vast majority happened on Biden's watch.

When I am agreeing with those opposed to public health?

Walensky has done more to harm the CDC's reputation for public health than Redfield, Trump's stooge.

We expected that from Trump.

To have a Democrat appointee do it?

This will be devastating to public health.

Short 🧵. Image
Mercola just retweeted my thread on Slavitt editing out the scarlet mask.



I immediately thought of deleting it because I was so disgusted.

Oh, you don't know who the Prince of Darkness and Greed is? Image
H/T @JHowardBrainMD

Literally - "The Most Influential Spreader of Coronavirus Misinformation Online"

He works by casting doubt on vaccinations, which leaves people in search of something - which he sells them. His vitamins. He's worth $130 million.

5 📌's.

One for each day of the @CDCDirector's virus friendly 5 day isolation policy.

This policy will make @RWalensky personally responsible for more death, sickness, and virus transmission than any other person in history.

Let's walk and talk....
Hyperbole?

No. The CDC's policies are copied the world over, because of their formerly stellar reputation.

A sampling:

Quebec
cbc.ca/news/canada/mo…
Ontario
toronto.ctvnews.ca/ontario-introd…
Alberta, British Columbia
aljazeera.com/news/2021/12/3…

So, the policy is spreading like Omicron.
And helping spread Omicron.

Why? 8 days. Omicron is infectious UNTIL at least 8 days.

The rest is just math.



But surely the CDC came to consensus decision? This is the decision of the world's finest collection of Public Health scientists?

No.

And Walensky is doing things willy-nilly over at the CDC.

Fine. Whatever.

Sometimes you have to clean house.

I am asking you to retweet this in order to drive up the count of the above hashtag. To make some noise.

To be a "naysayer" to the @CDCDirector .

This article is pay to play in the Boston globe.

We've paid enough blood, so free:

In that article, she changes her story AGAIN.

That she shortened the isolation due to pharmacies having to shorten their hours.

And here is why - in her own words - why #FireWalensky.

Kudos to the whole CDC for working on Christmas and New Year's??

For working two whole Image
days?

So that EVERYONE IS AMERICA IS GETTING YANKED BACK INTO WORK AFTER 5 DAYS?

#FireWalensky

@RWalensky, you claim you didn't have the data, but you are lying. We all did.

Riddle us this:

Which variant had an infectious period of less than even 8 days?

I was going to do the charitable take first. Not this week.

If I was the CDC about to release a shit-storm of epic proportions, how could I possibly tamp it down?

Put the shit-sandwich in the fine print.

Then, change the part that everyone actually reads after the fact.
Sorry for the language above, but is Trump running the @WHCOVIDResponse AND @CDCgov from Mar-A-Lago?

The charitable take?

Nope.

I'm plumb out of charity for any of them.
