This piece from The Daily Skeptic claims that the CDC director knowingly lied to the public because she knew that the COVID vaccines did not stop the virus even though she promoted mass vaccination.

What do we make of this one?

    I don’t think many people would disagree that the CDC did a pretty poor job of their public messaging.

    Granted, it wasn’t easy to simplify what ever- evolving body of research was revealing about both the virus and the vaccines, but they really didn’t do themselves any favours by making confident pronouncements that were later shown to be incorrect.

    It gave the conspiracy/antivax crowd a lot of ammunition.
