and overwhelming information to americans. is that good enough at this point? critics pointing out walensky coming clean about the cdc s mishandling the response to a once in a generation pandemic is just words. one of the cdc s harshest critics with this. like so many things in the cdc, the left has misdiagnosed the problem and they will misapply the solution. it wasn t that they acted too sparingly. the problem was they acted too quickly and not based on science. they were reacting every week with a new edict that contradicted the previous week. they became obsessed and thought they knew the truth. harris: chaotic mixed messages on everything, mask, vaccines, schools, booster. the impact of all that. confusion, panic, distrust, social and economic devastation. although we re seeing progress in terms of it. hospitalizations and deaths, variants are a wild card. we plan to be transparent in terms of the administration numbers. people want to understand the decision and
