CDC scientists were told guidance they developed for reopening states “would never see the light of day.' Read the AP exclusive about the shelving of important CDC COVID-19 guidance by JHDearen and MikeStobbe.

Traditionally, it’s been the CDC’s role to give the public and local officials guidance and science-based information during public health crises. During this one, however, the CDC has not had a regular, pandemic-related news briefing in nearly two months. CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield has been a member of the White House coronavirus task force, but largely absent from public appearances.

The Trump administration has instead sought to put the onus on states to handle COVID-19 response. This approach to managing the pandemic has been reflected in President Donald Trump’s public statements, from the assertion that he isn’t responsible for the country’s lackluster early testing efforts, to his description last week of the federal government’s role as a “supplier of last resort” for states in need of testing aid.

The guidance contained detailed advice for making site-specific decisions related to reopening schools, restaurants, summer camps, churches, day care centers and other institutions. It had been widely shared within the CDC and includedflow charts to be used by local officials to think through different scenarios. One page of the document can be found on the CDC website via search engines, but it did not appear to be linked to any other CDC pages.

But the shelved report also said that as restaurants start seating diners again, they should space tables at least 6 feet apart and try to use phone app technology to alert a patron when their table is ready to avoid touching and use of buzzers. That’s not on the CDC’s site now. The CDC is hearing daily from state and county health departments looking for scientifically valid information with which to make informed decisions.

Trump administration shelves CDC guide to reopening the countryThe Trump administration has shelved a set of detailed documents created by the nation’s top disease investigators meant to give step-by-step advice to local leaders deciding when and how to reopen public places during the still-raging pandemic. Let it and it's people die. Nobody wants to stop them 🤣 They just want people to die. And make it harder for businesses to reopen. Truth be told, Trump never read the CDC guidelines. Ratings, tweets, political retribution and his 'me' focus is all he cares about. The Covid-19 Taskforce is increasingly less effective in educating Trump. Unfit
