The group has sent a letter to the White House\u2019s Office of Science and Technology Policy (OTSP) urging them to take action on past violations and ensure that future violations don\u2019t happen.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Multiple officials with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) falsely claimed that COVID-19 was a top-five cause of death for children and have not corrected the information to date.<\/li>\n<li>A top National Institutes of Health official cited a non-peer-reviewed CDC paper, claiming that COVID-19 vaccines provided better protection than the immunity enjoyed after recovering from COVID-19, even though many other studies show the opposite.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-watchdog-urges-investigation-of-cdc-nih-misinformation\/\" title=\"Watchdog calls for probe into CDC, NIH misinformation.\">misinformation violates scientific integrity guidelines<\/a> in the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and its offices, which include the CDC and the NIH, according to PPT.<\/p>\n<h3>Years-Long Refusal to Uphold President Biden\u2019s Scientific Integrity Mandates<\/h3>\n<p>PPT has sent documentation of the violations to administration officials in recent months, including evidence that Dr. Rochelle Walensky, the CDC\u2019s director, and other CDC officials falsely told the public that COVID-19 was a top cause of death for children. The preprint study they were citing has since been corrected, but the officials have not notified the public that the information they conveyed was not accurate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite the thorough documentation and evidence in PPT\u2019s complaints, there is no indication that HHS has taken appropriate action to either correct past violations or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/europe-canada-closes-airspace-to-russian-civil-aviation\/\" title=\"Europe, Canada Closes Airspace to Russian Civil Aviation\">prevent future violations<\/a> from occurring,\u201d said Michael Chamberlain, PPT\u2019s director. \u201cAccordingly, PPT brings the HHS\u2019 years-long refusal to uphold President Biden\u2019s scientific integrity mandates to your attention so that the American public can be reassured that these issues will be corrected and that their public institutions will live up to the high standards they profess.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>PPT describes itself as a nonpartisan watchdog with the goal of helping the government become impartial and free from conflicts of interest.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Joe Biden\u2019s administration should investigate scientific integrity violations committed by officials who made false or misleading claims about COVID-19 and other matters, a watchdog says in a new letter.
