When the CDC directs doctors and medical people to call it Covid if they don't know what it might be, or when it is Covid-like but could be any number of things, or when the doctor has determined that it is something other than Covid, or when it is somebody who died without a determined cause, that is a criminal, shyster, evil, wicked, lying approach.
If the CDC doesn't find the person who wrote those directives, and find something to try him for in a court of law, so that he gets 20 years to life, the whole organization is entirely evil. Those doctors and other CDC workers who are honest, should absolutely get out of their while they have any credibility left at all.
Move away from the CDC if you value your life, and don't have anything to do with any medical people who value the CDC.

I love ya buddy, but you don't know anything about "science". We can observe the tiny little bad guys in the body with a variety of ways. You don't get labeled as having covid because you go to the doctor with a cough anymore than you get labeled as having tuberculosis. At the most extreme you'd get labeled as a possible covid patient while you're waiting for the test results. The published statistics have a breakdown of confirmed and probable cases, and a note that the numbers are amended as the test results come back positive for negative. I cannot explain the concept of testing to an extent that you'll understand or accept so I'm just going to have to move past that.
I'll certainly offer understanding for someone who wants to say, well I don't necessarily trust the CDC and point to contradictory information coming from another well respected medical facility. The point though is that there isn't contradictory information coming out, so I felt it was most appropriate to cite the CDC considering the thread is about Medical Experts within the Trump Administration. You can find the same information coming out of Johns Hopkins, NIH, Canada/European/Zimbabwe's public health agencies, so I'm more than willing to stop using the CDC as an example and switch over to data collected by any other reputable medical facility.
The Trump administration has both the manpower and expertise to collect the necessary information to make public statements. Relying on conclusions from people who don't have either is asinine. If you're able to find a reasonable motive that the government would take trillions in damage to lie, you can then look for dissenting opinions from respected medical facilities. In this case, the published information is corroborated by both the private and public sector in every country that has put public statements out. If you think that the US government is out to get you, get your information from Norway, they don't care about you in the slightest. If you want to chase this down some delusional one in a billion global scheme by a coalition of secret trillionaires that have the influence to manipulate 50 million people or so, let me know and we can have fun with it. I'll be the opposing side offering equally likely scenarios involving complete economic collapse, global anarchy, zombies, etc.
