CDC Blasted After Withholding Data Over Fears Of Vax Appearing Ineffective

Medical experts slammed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention after the agency admitted to withholding a significant amount of data collected on COVID-19 vaccines from the public.

The CDC refused to publish “large portions” of data gathered on COVID-19 vaccines over concerns that it would be “misinterpreted,” according to The New York Times. CDC spokeswoman Kristen Nordlund said that the fear of misrepresentation, along with several other factors, led the government health agency to withhold the information.

Nordlund also said that the data was withheld “because basically, at the end of the day, it’s not yet ready for prime time.”
