Trump administration shelves CDC guide to reopening country: AP

A report by a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention team meant to give advice to local leaders deciding when and how to reopen public places during the coronavirus pandemic has been shelved by the Trump administration, the Associated Press reported Thursday. The CDC report was supposed to be published last Friday, but agency scientists were told the guidance "would never see the light of day," according to a CDC official cited by the AP. The AP says the guide was researched and written to help faith leaders, business owners, educators and state and local officials as they begin to reopen.
