On Friday two senior US Center of Disease Control and Prevention abruptly resigned their positions. Kyle McGowan, Chief of Staff, and the Assistant Chief of Staff resigned. Both have been heavily criticized by administration officials for not being sufficiently loyal to Trump. It means that executives and scientists at the CDC are being muzzled by the WH and are no longer free to speak candidly to the American people. By extension that means that if Trump tells us some lies about the coronavirus, no one at the CDC better amend, correct or disagree with his version. Being a factual time witness no longer counts but blind loyalty with a total disregard for the truth is valued. Welcome to the updated White House Code of Conduct!
