First, do no harm, unless it makes the president look bad (in that case, bag ’em and tag ’em)

August 2020

“On Wednesday afternoon, it was reported that the CDC downgraded coronavirus testing guidelines – those who were in contact with infected persons may no longer need to be tested if they’re asymptomatic, despite repeated evidence that half of transmissions occur before symptoms appear. The CDC was pressured to make the changes by Trump administration officials, which means we’ve reached the point where Donald Trump is dictating our health regulations. Hey, CDC! This is our lives! Either grow a pair and stand up to this clown or at least be honest and change the Hippocratic oath to: ‘First, do no harm, unless it makes the president look bad, in that case, bag ’em and tag ’em.’” —Stephen Colbert
