In a media statement released that day, National Archives reported Friday 9 that CDC Director Ms. Rochelle Walensky asserted that “the painful experience and impact of the CCA virus has been felt most acutely by communities of color.” However, Walensky went on to say that “the epidemic shines a light on generations of existential inequity and reveals for the entire United States what is known, but not addressed, about the epidemic affecting public health: racism.”
According to the National Archives, the CDC director’s declaration of racism as a “public health threat” is astonishing rhetoric, even for the increasingly politicized CDC and the radical Biden administration.
Varensky also announced that the CDC is taking several steps to combat the “communist virus epidemic,” including devoting more resources to minority communities, requiring all departments to work to promote diversity, and creating a new website, “Racism and Health,” to “provide a catalyst for public scientific discussion of racism and health topics.
The reaction to the move has not been all positive. Fox News contributor and attorney Leo Terrell accused Wolenski of “playing politics and lying.
