Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story:

Public health experts at the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have leaked their recommendations on how to safely reopen businesses amid the COVID-19 pandemic—after officials in the Trump administration rejected the guidance and allegedly told CDC officials their plan would "never see the light of day."

The 17-page document (PDF found here) was initially set to be published last Friday but was nixed. Instead, it was released to the Associated Press by a CDC official who was not authorized to release it.

The guidance lays out detailed, phased recommendations for how to safely reopen child care programs, schools, day camps, faith communities, businesses with vulnerable workers, restaurants, bars, and mass transit. Though some of the general points laid out already appear on federal websites—such as an emphasis on hand hygiene—the document uniquely offers tailored recommendations for each type of business.

    Who was testing for Sars-Covid-2 virus or covid-19 illness in January, 2020 anywhere in this country? At that time anyone who showed up for medical care and exhibited the symptoms of covid-19 would have written off as suffering from "seasonal flu".
    We just don't know what we don't know. Personally I do find it hard to give much credit a proven liar and his funkies..

    The Musk/Trump interview appears to have been hacked, but not a DDOS hack...more like A Distributed Denial of Reality.

    Who was testing for Sars-Covid-2 virus or covid-19 illness in January, 2020

    Who was testing for Covid-19 in March, 2020? Well, a lot of people.

    How do so many cases of an infectious disease magically disappear without infecting a lot of people?
