News: What would you do if you were a C.D.C. scientist?

So what I think is interesting and challenging here is this article talks about the growing frustration and disillusionment of many of the scientists in CDC who have made careers out of their dedication to public health, despite being able to make higher salaries in the industry if they wanted, and many are tempted to quit doing to their growing frustration and what seems to be bullying into putting out certain information or framing it in a particular way in regards to COVID-19 that many just seem to feel is unethical or not in line with their values

Perhaps excessive, but...

And then there's the understanding that with the name under that umbrella organization like this is being done to protect the individuals and their families. And so maybe just maybe combined with the information that's being offered like these things could carry some weight, some importance. But at the same time, I kind of wonder if, like in this conspiracy theory landscape that we are in right now, I don't know that there really is an answer or a solution of any kind
