If only the CDC was actually transparent about their information. Something like "listen, this virus is new, we have no idea how it was made and we're still trying to figure out how it works. The information we give you is based on our best educated guess of how the virus behaves, and it would be appreciated if you're patient with us as we're trying to figure this out.. "
When the delta variant popped up, then going something like "Listen, the Delta variant is extremely contagious, and it's not as dangerous to most people, but because of how contagious it is we' have x y z recommendations."
Stuff like that. But instead the CDC has to make these rules to make it sound like they're 100% sure about their narrative, and they go out of their way to use the federal government to stamp out any other narrative.
If they allowed open discourse we wouldn't be in this shitshow in the first place, but instead they keep trying to stick to their guns instead of telling us they're still trying to figure things out.
That dishonesty is why so many people lost trust in the CDC. Because it's clear they're working by the seat of their pants.

Aww, poor innocent CDC. I feel so bad for them.
Oh wait no they're totalitarian assholes who know exactly what they're doing.
