>>美媒在這次疫情有怪責川普,說他上任至今,年年砍CDC預算
美國主流媒體就是這麼痛恨川普,附和民主黨的言論,他沒幹的事情也要掰成他幹的。還是有媒體作Fact Check,證實川普對CDC預算沒砍成:

AP FACT CHECK: Democrats distort coronavirus readiness
>>THE FACTS: They’re both wrong to say the agencies have seen their money cut. Bloomberg is repeating the false allegation in a new ad that states the U.S. is unprepared for the virus because of “reckless cuts” to the CDC. Trump’s budgets have proposed cuts to public health, only to be overruled by Congress, where there’s strong bipartisan support for agencies such as the CDC and NIH. Instead, financing has increased.
他的確是有打算減少這方面的預算,但是國會兩黨都不鳥他,都反對刪減這方面的預算,還加碼更多預算咧。
>>Some public health experts say a bigger concern than White House budgets is the steady erosion of a CDC grant program for state and local public health emergency preparedness — the front lines in detecting and battling new disease. But that decline was set in motion by a congressional budget measure that predates Trump.
另一方面,醫療前線應付緊急事故的經費卻是在川普未上台之前,已經在國會的預算案之下削減了。
