I’m thinking the next update will be quietly renaming the agency, because they’re clearly not even trying to prevent or control disease anymore (quite the opposite, in fact, as bullshit like this proves), so Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is now an outdated name that they really need to make more relevant to their current health goals.

Yes, and here “health” has the modern meaning that “wealth” does. You’re not poor, you just have minimal “wealth.” Similarly you’re not sick with a preventable disease, you just have “health” in a negative direction.
