My criticism is that they're generally too slow and too unwilling to make reasonable inferences based on incomplete information. So I will *not* be criticizing them for the booster shot decision, although I'm glad there are still further steps in the process (i.e. FDA review). — PolitiTweet.org

Public health officials have made their share of mistakes, but they're really sort of damned if they do and damned if they don't in that they'll get criticized if they make decisions "too quickly" or "too slowly". So at least try to be consistent. — PolitiTweet.org

Furthermore, nearly all criticism in hindsight (I can think of one or two exceptions but not many) is that they moved too slowly. So that should probably figure into how you calibrate your assessments in real-time. — PolitiTweet.org
