Metric after metric, measure after measure are being taken from us. They’re taking away the forms of tracking it and they’re taking away the protections. Why? Don’t they care about the people? Don’t they care about the millions who’ve gotten sick, the millions who’ve been disabled, the millions who’ve died? The cdc cares about keeping the economy running, no matter how high the stack of corpses gets in the corner. They want people working and creating profit for their capitalist masters. When people get sick the “health”“care” system will strip them of any remaining money and leave them to die.

    The CDC openly admits to issuing guidance based on what it thinks people will do, i.e. rather than what public health expertise say needs to be advocated.

    This is just a whitewashed phrasing of what you’re describing. What “people will do” is a political calculation (the math is never shown, though) that allows bourgeois party influence and capitalist propaganda to dictate health policy.
