The CDC said Americans don’t need masks — but now they might. The agency said the virus spread through “droplets” from coughs and sneezes — but then warned about catching it from people with no symptoms, or even from surfaces, like subway turnstiles or metal shopping carts.
And they aren’t moving at the velocity the public craves in a crisis of this magnitude. It only gets worse when the voices of science must compete with the voices of politics. When the CDC has tried to be blunt — most notably when epidemic expert Nancy Messonnier told reporters in February that Americans should prepare for community spread of the illness and “severe disruption” to their lives — the White House quickly put out a competing, more reassuring message.
Every complaint listed in your article is media generated from every media outlet nothing but out and out lies, 1/2 truths and innuendo YOU ARE THE PROBLEM
The media, constantly lying, giving false or misleading data, counter pointing everything and federal official says, doing fake hit pieces, and selling fear is what is panicking the public. The media somehow believes they are virus and pandemic experts, they are not.
Public Health Policy may or may not have all the answers. But if Americans don't exercise common sense its all for nothing. STAY HOME!
DrFauci is the only expert willing to stand up to IgnorantassTrump ... People need to learn to listen to the person making the most sense... That person realDonaldTrump will never make sense. MuteTrump
Let's start referring to this as the Trump Genocide. He gets credit for the deaths, the cruelty, and the systemic withholding of supplies to slow the virus down. Yeah, Trump Genocide is a good description of his reign. Pass it on.
rolandsmartin We're not only terrified. We think the president is using COVIDー19 to kill Americans by continuing to respond poorly to this crisis. Ttrump's message to America: Just die.
These daily briefings are for the benefit of DJT whose ego needs frequent rally-substitutes. “Americans” understand that the experts’ knowledge of this unique virus is evolving. The fear and confusion arises from DJT’s continual, contradictory, dishonest claims-he seems unhinged.
6000 cured and back home HATE Media dont give a shit about them BTW Who did this ?
I am totally pro-Trump but we did get mixed messages about masks. I don’t blame Trump. But I think common sense says yes wear a mask when in public now.
Learning about the virus “on the job” is sorta their job, so it’s a stupid headline. The problem is that the CDC et al appear to be learning basic pandemic response on the job, and aren’t faring any too well, even at that, and are arguably putting politics ahead of policy.
lets put the shoe on the other.....the first line should read 'America's best journalists and its vaunted main stream media are still learning on the job about journalism'
It would if GOP and Dems could work together to get the message out. Instead the White House is trying to get the message out and Dems are trying to use the crisis to get Trump. Except Cuomo; he's focused on CYA. Why can't they work together for the American people?
He misses golfing so much.
It's a SHIT show. Trump is the opposite of Midas.
sheilaaj Let me see, what could possibly be going through the author's mind? I think most Americans know the Answer...
Trump neglects to mention that it was HIM that thought the country “could ride it out” while he called it a Democratic Hoax! Facts no longer matter. At all. We used to be a great country. Now we're being sunk by a transparent con man.
