    This is so painful to read. It’s clear that @CDCgov has been neglected for a long time and that @CDCDirector was (and is) in way over his head as Directorhttps://twitter.com/EricLiptonNYT/status/1268151677493927939 …

        Not only do we have the worst President possible during a once in a century crisis, but in @CDCDirector @CDCgov has one of the worst choices for Director, someone totally not up to the challenge, which would have taxed even the most competent of leaders.https://twitter.com/markhoofnagle/status/1268247598915338241 …

        Astonishing how this article clearly exposes Redfield as a non-entity - damned by faint praise even from allies and friends, a man who long ago exceeded his ability per the Peter Principle, placed in a position even more complex than those he had failed in previously. https://twitter.com/EricLiptonNYT/status/1268151677493927939 …

        I don’t know that any director could have handled the combination of this pandemic and this administration well.

        But it's not a binary situation, it's a spectrum. We're not in "can handle" or "can't handle" territory, it's a case of how well it is or isn't handled.

        All of our federal agencies have been eviscerated. They have been strategically underfunded, and industry insiders are running them. The NYT and medical media, did not report on this as it was occurring, the corporations would not have supported that.

        People scolded me for warning that Redfield was an evangelical ideologue that we should be very wary of.

        He's the second trump appointee in the position. His nomination was opposed by the scientific community and legislators alike, owing to a lack of relevant experience and ethics violations. trump's first under qualified director was forced to resign due to ethics violations.
