If CDC is forced to recommend based on the "community standards and wishes" -- as opposed to actual science -- in the many anti-vaxxer enclaves, public health will be at risk as herd immunity is reduced. Given Trump's friendliness with these folks, this is dismally unsurprising. But it's also scary.On 12/16/2017 05:06 PM, Dave Farber wrote: In some instances, the analysts were given alternative phrases. Instead of “science-based” or “evidence-based,” the suggested phrase is “CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,” the person said. In other cases, no replacement words were immediately offered.
