    CDC Officers Criticize U.S. COVID-19 Response

More than one thousand current and former officers of an elite disease fighting program at the U.S. Centers For Disease Control And Prevention have signed an open letter expressing dismay at the nation’s public health response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The letter indicated that the CDC should be at the forefront of this global public health emergency. "Our concern is about the ominous politicization and silencing of the nation’s health protection agency.”

The 1,044 officers who signed the letter constitute more than 25% of current and former EIS officers dating back to 1951.

This letter really represents the medical professionals who do not agree on what the federal government is doing to protect the health of our citizens.

In the past several months we have watched President Trump in news conferences talk about the pandemic. In fact, we should have CDC officers come to frontline and not only the politicians.

We very much regret that it was too late for the many people who have now lost their lives. And yet, we still don’t have any effective method to control the virus.

  千名國家疫情中心官員聲討政府無能

曾任及現任共有一千多位國家疾管中心官員今天發表一封公開信，聲討政府對新冠病毒之控制無方，造成巨大國民之喪生 ，信中譴責政治之干預让疾管中心無法施展專業來搶救疫情。

這封由一千零四十四人共同簽署之公開信代表四分之一現任及前任的官員。

這封公開信是對白官官方作為表示不滿 ，自從疫情發生以來 ，川普總統主導了白宮之疫情簡報，並和衛生官員們常常意見相左， 造成政治掛帥不正常之情況。

非常遺憾這項錯誤已經造成二十多萬國民之喪生，截至目前為止， 政府尚無具體措施，疫苗也未見上市，防疫專家之指導也未見採納， 我們要問我們還是世界第一的強國嗎？

政府施政之錯誤， 真是人民之大不幸也。
