The White House is making 'contingency plans' for a second wave of coronavirus after emails reportedly contradict their claims that Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines to safely reopen the economy were set aside because medical experts did not approve of them.

Redfield was said to have shared the guidance, along with several"decision trees" to develop strategies on reopening, with administration officials including Jared Kushner and President Donald Trump's advisers Kellyanne Conway and Joseph Grogan as early as April 10. Redfield's fellow coronavirus task force members Dr. Deborah Birx and Dr. Anthony Fauci were also included in the emails.

President Donald Trump speaks with Congressional Republicans during a meeting at the White House in Washington, D.C. on May 8, 2020.Before the guidance document leaked, the AP reported that anonymous CDC officials not authorized to speak on the matter said they were told the document"would never see the light of day." The White House claimed that CDC leaders did not clear the"over prescriptive" guidelines contained in the document.

Trump will say it never happened.

They are only preparing for a second wave so that IF it happens people wont say “WHY WERENT WE PREPARED!!WAHHHHHHHH Please keep me locked in my home so i can feel safe but really because im just a lazy liberal and want the economy to tank so we can blame Trump”

Just say White House Is MISLEADING Nation!

How have things worked out for NYC? They6ve followed all the guidelines, and NYC is the global epicenter of coronavirus deaths.

That is the path Trump has chosen. Our only hope is that the voters remember his incompetence and vote him out of office.

Thats a really nice swing and miss... mediaClowns

White House returned CDC guidelines for reopening economy, requesting revisionsThe White House sent back the CDC recommendations for reopening the economy out of concern that they were overly restrictive, two administration officials said. Out of concern that it would take real work like increased testing and tracing. Wow, even with 70k+ deaths and over a million infected, these people still won't listen to the experts. What a disgrace. It’s just been one big cover-up since day one for trump.
