Video: The CDC Has No Authority To Make Decisions For Americans
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has no authority to make decisions for Americans. This was the contention of health freedom advocate Leslie Manookian when she joined host Dr. Daniel Bobinski in the April 21 episode of "Keep the Republic" on Brighteon.TV.
"CDC is supposed to be an agency that provides guidance and recommendations, not issuing edicts and directives to 330 million people. And so if you look at the CDC vaccination schedule, it's recommended, it's up to the states to decide what they will do with respect to those," said Manookian, founder of the Health Freedom Defense Fund (HFDF).
"And what this really comes down to is constitutional authority. Health powers are reserved to the states; they're not given to the federal government. And so the CDC, as a federal health agency under the executive, doesn't have the authority to make these kinds of decisions for everybody. That said, the administrative state has gained a lot of power. Whether it's constitutional and right or not is another question."
Manookian, a former Wall Street business executive and award-winning documentary film producer, said she founded HFDF because she was very concerned about all the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) measures and the egregious violations of basic American liberties.
