A U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) senior manager told congressional investigators this week that she was instructed to delete an email showing a Trump administration appointee attempting to interfere with a scientific report on the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus.
According to a partial transcript released by House Majority Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-S.C.), Dr. Charlotte Kent, Chief of the Scientific Publications Branch and Editor-in-Chief of the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) at CDC, testified that she believes the deletion of the email was ordered by CDC Director Robert Redfield.
