00:00Finally, I would like to address the recent shake-up since CDC.
00:05These changes were absolutely necessary adjustments to restore the agency to its role as the world's gold standard public health agency,
00:16with the central mission of protecting Americans from infectious disease.
00:21CDC failed that responsibility miserably during COVID when its disastrous and nonsensical policies destroyed small businesses,
00:30violated civil liberties, closed our schools, caused generational damage in doing so,
00:37masked infants with no science, and heightened economic inequality.
00:42And yet all those oppressive and unscientific interventions failed to do anything about the disease itself.
00:50America is home to 4.2% of the world's population, yet we had nearly 20% of the COVID deaths.
00:58We literally did worse than any country in the world.
01:03And the people at CDC who oversaw that process, who put masks on our children, who closed our schools, are the people who will be leaving.
01:13And that's why we need bold, competent, and creative new leadership at CDC.
01:19People are able and willing to chart a new course.
01:23As my father once said, progress is a nice word.
01:26A change is its motivator.
01:28And change has its enemies.
01:31That's why we need new blood at CDC.
01:34That's also why it's imperative that we remove officials with conflicts of interest and catastrophically bad judgment and political agendas.
01:43We need unbiased, politics-free, transparent, evident-based science in the public interest.
01:51Those are the guiding principles behind the changes at the CDC, and that is what you can expect all across our agency for the next three years.
02:00Alright, we have to go.
02:01That's too close to us.
02:02If you canĐ»ŃŽŃ‡é‡ina C.P.
02:03That means 20.
02:04Let's go.
02:05OK.
02:06But we lost out there.
02:07All right, what is next?
02:08OK, then you are too close to over that target, we will eventually leave you our final subhead for
02:09today.
02:10On c.p.
02:11If you want to check in on c.p.
02:12If the camera is from pointing target, you will repeat that in the way
02:15you can file a lot.
02:16If the camera does that, you can formulate answered your eyes, and feel like that we'll stop by
02:21äș‚greens, and what will manipulate?
02:22And you can do it if you want to investigate.
