The CDC says the coming end of the public health emergency means the agency will be scaling back the data it routinely collects and releases about the pandemic.

‘The guy has no shame’: RFK Jr.’s ‘fanatic’ tirade on CNN floors analyst
A political analyst was floored after one of President Donald Trump's cabinet secretaries erupted during a CNN interview.
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. went on a tirade on Sunday's "State of the Union" with host Dana Bash, one that devolved into Kennedy shouting at Bash about issues ranging from the COVID-19 vaccine to autism. Will Saletan, a writer at The Bulwark, argued during a new podcast episode on Monday that Kennedy's tirade was indicative of the fact that he's a 'fanatic' rather than a scientist.
"The guy has no shame," Saletan said.
He pointed to one moment in particular where Kennedy claimed that COVID-19 was manufactured to impact Caucasians and Black people more so than other races. He also mentioned Kennedy's blatant untruths about how former CDC Director Anthony Fauci managed the pandemic.
"The problem with Kennedy is he doesn't think like a scientist. He's a fanatic," Saletan said.
