A deeply moving, devastating, essay by @anilananth shedding a heartbreaking light on our COVID-19 crisis.
That the harms of this crisis are, by their nature, so difficult to fully witness, speaks volumes damning those who made (and still make) light of it. https://twitter.com/anilananth/status/1289607596417011712">https://twitter.com/anilanant...

And speaking of things not seen, back in mid-July, when hospital data started being redirected to HHS, CDC made a claim that *sounded* good .. but I suspected it was just spin (they only “restored” old data, not the feeds)

This thread by @Laurie_Garrett should be read in full. Redirecting to HHS (actually to two private companies), means we now have no reliable data. And yet, indicators of what Trump & co were trying to hide are horrifying.

I wish I’d been proven wrong to be suspicious of Redfield’s appointment at the CDC. But I think at this point it’s impossible to assume any good faith from this administration or its enablers.

Today, the date Trump claimed he’d have signed his “detailed” health plan .. he’s golfing (while his enablers sue to eliminate coverage for 23 million Americans).
#TrumpHasNoPlan, but the cruelty & negligence looks deliberate.
