CDC

ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos grew increasingly frustrated on Thursday’s Good Morning America after he failed to get CDC director Robert Redfield to bash President Trump for insisting we need to reopen schools in the Fall.

 

After the GMA team sneered that President Trump was “going against the advice of federal health experts” by pushing to reopen…

On Thursday's New Day on CNN, as New York Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo made his first appearance on the show since word broke that he went against CDC guidelines and pressured nursing homes to take in COVID-19 patients, leading to thousands of unnecessary deaths, CNN co-host Alisyn Camerota failed to bring up the important issue.

Over the Memorial Day weekend, while Fox News Channel was practicing good journalism by informing its viewers about Governor Andrew Cuomo's dishonesty in trying to blame the Donald Trump administration for the New York Democrat's order to force nursing homes to accept Covid-19 patients, thus leading to more of their residents getting sick and dying, CNN forwarded the Cuomo administration…

As Americans debate how to reopen our society in the wake of COVID-19, we seem to be breaking down into three groups: first, those who believe the virus isn't particularly serious and desperately want to reopen everything as soon as possible (a small minority of Americans, by polling data); second, those who believe the virus is extraordinarily serious and want everything to remain closed as…

Wednesday’s White House Coronavirus Task Force briefing saw fireworks after Tuesday’s episode was a welcome change with a calm, civil, and sober tone among the cast of reporters. But on Wednesday, CDC Director Robert Redfield was in the spotlight to clarify comments that sent the wildly (and eagerly) apocalyptic media into a tizzy. Of course, Redfield’s appearance didn’t…

"There are no libertarians in a global pandemic." So goes the smug punchline of large-government advocates who point to the necessity of collective action in the face of an unprecedented global crisis. Without government, they say, we'd all be dead. Few libertarians would disagree. The hardcore libertarians at Reason magazine aren't spending their days fulminating over the evils…

The hosts of The View continued campaigning for Joe Biden on Tuesday’s show, while worrying that a candidate like Bernie Sanders becoming the nominee could sink the Democrats’ chances of winning back the White House. Co-host Whoopi Goldberg grumbled that she wanted the swamp and bureaucratic institutions “back” in Washington, and her fellow co-host Joy Behar went…

The truth has no place on NBC News. During NBC’s Sunday Today, host Willie Geist continued to push the long-debunked accusation that President Trump called the deadly coronavirus (COVID-19) a “hoax” at a Friday campaign rally in South Carolina. On top of that, Geist suggested it took the first death of an American in the U.S. to get the President to cut it out and take the…

Shortly before President Trump addressed the nation on Wednesday to explain what his administration was doing to prepare for the deadly coronavirus (COVID-19), ABC’s World News Tonight and the CBS Evening News decided to give a megaphone to Democratic lawmakers so they could suggest the administration wasn’t taking the virus seriously.

The Immigration and Nationality Act mandates that all immigrants and refugees undergo a medical screening examination to determine whether they have an inadmissible health condition. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has technical instructions for medical examination of prospective immigrants in their home countries before they are permitted to enter the U.S. They are screened for…

Robert De Niro has been making good on his promise that he will be speaking out against Donald Trump and his conservative supporters at every opportunity, or at least when a handful of Hollywood sycophants is there to applaud his liberal orthodoxy.

Thanks to the work of government watchdog Judicial Watch, the same organization that has aggressively pursued in court former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s past rogue practices in high office, a series of Centers for Disease Control (CDC) emails have been revealed that document the health and safety risks that came along with the tens of thousands of undocumented Central American…

Thursday’s CBS Evening News featured a segment in which chief medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook tag-teamed with the White House and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to attack Republicans for not going along with demands to create $1.9 billion (that could be passed through Congress) to allow the CDC and NIH to fight the Zika virus.

When it comes to the phrasing of a message, two words can make all the difference.  Last week, the CDC made a subtle change in the “Prevention Methods” section of its annual Sexually Transmitted Diseases Treatment report released June 5. Whereas abstinence had once been recommended as “a” reliable way to prevent the transmission of STDs, the report now calls it…
