"The federal government does not have a process to help systematically define and ensure the collection of standardized data across the relevant federal agencies and related stakeholders to help respond to COVID-19, communicate the status of the pandemic with citizens, or prepare for future pandemics."
It's gotta be that one guy's fault. Not Fauci, who predicted a surprise outbreak. Making sure everyone stocks up in PPE would all be that one guys' fault. Not any of those other guys, before, or maybe after, him.
Just that guy.
"As a result, COVID-19 information that is collected and reported by states and other entities to the federal government is often incomplete and inconsistent. The lack of complete and consistent data limits HHS’s and others’ ability to monitor trends in the burden of the pandemic across states and regions, make informed comparisons between such areas, and assess the impact of public health actions to prevent and mitigate the spread of COVID-19. Further, incomplete and inconsistent data have limited HHS’s and others’ ability to prioritize the allocation of health resources in specific geographic areas or among certain populations most affected by the pandemic. "
Oh, so that one guy, it seems to all be his fault. With everyone else, it was good, even when he, Fauci, of the NIH for what, 40 yrs(?), predicted a surprise outbreak of disease.
