new CDC requirement: fuck it, we ball

CDC voice: "I know I said we'd do something about covid if it got very high again, but we have real tough jobs to do, like removing the recommendations that children with head lice or watery diarrhea be sent home to prevent further spread of their illness."

#'we ball' in this case meaning 'diseases are a natural part of life shrug emoji'#never forget that the cdc was made almost entirely because formaldehyde was being put in milk #to make it last longer for big business. pasteurization was new and the equipment was expensive #so despite known health issues no one was making the switch #even today you can see people trying to repeal pasteurization in ultra conservative circles
