Apparently the CDC has been withholding valuable COVID data from the public because they’re afraid we’ll misinterpret everything

The New York Times ~ The CDC has published only a tiny fraction of the Covid data it has collected, including critical data on boosters and hospitalizations, citing incomplete reports or fears of misinterpretation. Critics say the practice causes confusion.

The practice causes confusion? Sounds like those critics are putting it very, very mildly.

Mr.Buck ~ Fears of misinterpretation? We all know what that means then.

Steve ~ "Fears of misinterpretation" ... guessing if this data helped tell their story it would be readily available, and quite easily interpreted.

Anybody still question that they have withheld data from us?

Why doesn’t the CDC publish the COVID data and give people a chance to try to interpret it? If that’s really the CDC’s concern, what’s the harm in making the data available to the public? If the science always wins, the CDC should have nothing to worry about.

Vinay Prasad, MD MPH ~ All I know is: if you read the studies they are publishing, the reason they aren't sharing this data is absolutely not that they want to get the analysis right.

Marty Makary MD, MPH ~ Agree @VPrasadMDMPH. We’ve been saying this for over a year, but when the NYT discovers what’s happening, then some start to pay attention.

Seth Mandel ~ Genuinely scandalous behavior here. Data sharing saves lives. Bureaucracy does not.
