The loss of public trust in the CDC in particular and public health in general are a huge problem. We'll need a generation or two to fix it.
It doesn't help that the CDC capitulates to economic interests. Everyone suddenly saw that when the pandemic hit (except for the MAGA types, who somehow were convinced the CDC was being overly strict when it was quite the opposite). Hard to get your credibility back when it's so blatant.
