So who would you trust that you are safe.  
We have a compromised CDC and the entire Government has lost credibility.

Seems this should be handled like the Exxon Valdez only on a smaller scale.

What’s the similarity between the two? The Exxon Valdez spill was much larger, totally different biome and the cleanup arguably caused as much harm as good
