FTA: "Instead of 'science-based' or 'evidence-based,' the suggested phrase is 'CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with [sic] community standards and wishes,' the person said." [Emphasis added.]

Assuming this is accurate, we should contact the Nobel Prize committee, because clearly the Trump administration has figured out how to make viruses and bacteria also take "community standards and wishes" into account.
