I think no one is denying that good people with good intentions and ethics work at the FDA and CDC.
But I’m not sure where to go with that? Support them no matter what? What incentive would they have to improve if we took that approach?
Hopefully the kind of criticism here is valuable feedback about how their policies are playing out in the real world, even if it’s not optimized for charitability. There’s a lot of people with relevant experience and perspectives that feel unheard here, Tara Haelle (Zvi mentions elsewhere) is one excellent example. https://twitter.com/tarahaelle/status/1478531929351860225?s=20
