CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/TRUMP ADMINISTRATION: “Trump administration officials made ‘deliberate efforts to undermine the nation’s coronavirus response for political purposes,’ the House Select subcommittee on the coronavirus crisis led by Democrats said in a report released Friday.

The committee, which spent months working to interview former Trump officials, said the administration worked to undermine the public health response to the coronavirus pandemic by blocking officials from speaking publicly, watering down testing guidance and attempting to interfere with other public health guidance.”
