On the Science-Based Medicine blog, David Gorski asks whether we can still trust the CDC and FDA and concludes "I don't know."
For me, this is more evidence that no, we can't: Gorski (aka Orac) has been a voice for "trust the science, don't listen to anecdata" and pointing at CDC recommendations for things like vaccination for a long time. But that was before Trump, when we could trust the CDC to look at the science, not edit the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report to make the president look better.

Seriously. And we've already run through all of the reasons why. Repeatedly. You and me.
