As President Donald Trump clamps down on coronavirus communications, voices of experts give way to those of politicians

“Businesses are looking for clear, practical guidance for the best steps that they can undertake. Ideally they’d like to see as much uniformity as possible across the states,” said Neil Bradley, the chief policy officer at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. “We want to be able to instill confidence for both employees and customers.”

That reflects a conscious shift in the messaging strategy on the health issues — reflecting a shift in priorities for the task force itself, according to one task force official. But those public appearances will be on an “as needed” basis, said the official, who could not say if the task force would resume any regular briefing schedule — or if a federal health agency like the Centers for Disease Control would eventually take over as the face of the public health response. Public health experts have urged the administration to put the CDC in charge of the response for months, arguing it would help de-politicize the response.

Meanwhile, many public health experts contend that the administration has been putting its political priorities ahead of crucial health information — hampering the response at nearly every turn. Much-anticipated CDC guidelines advising businesses and schools how they should reopen, meanwhile, remain in limbo, prompting many companies to seek out other sources in the meantime for assistance on how to operate through an unprecedented crisis.
