CDC leadership vacuum

The CDC is nearly paralyzed, as 80% of the group leadership positions are vacant. This adds to a lot of other damage — 1/5 of the staff were fired (or quit). The previous acting director, Bhattacharya, was previously infamous for advocating allowing Covid-19 to spread unhindered and advising old people to protect themselves by avoiding contact with other people. Either RFK jr is nuts or he is committing intentional sabotage — I can't see any way around it. But neither alternative fully makes sense.
