CDC says Americans should ditch public transit for cars because of the coronavirus, and it could push emissions higher than ever

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is advising Americans to drive to work instead of taking public transit or carpooling.It counters what scads of public health and environmental programs have advocated for decades. The federal government would like companies to incentivize driving to work — preferably alone. on how to adapt to the return of working outside of the home, a practice largely nixed since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic in mid-March.

Getting to work without close contact with others, such as through public transit or ride sharing, is preferred, the CDC says. This would help slow the spread of the coronavirus, which has already killed more than 100,000 Americans in 2020. However, commuting via carpooling and mass transit is what public health and environmental officials have pushed for decades in order to ease congestion and mitigate the effects of catastrophic climate change.irreversible ice-melt flooding cities worldwide, record-breaking temperatures, more destructive hurricanes and storms, and water shortages.

Climate crisis Massive oil spill in the Arctic Endangered species CDC is not promoting health they are promoting death.

& this is why we don't get health info from a business blog.

The CDC is on crack for saying that. Be cautious, but take public transit. Save the environment

It will interestingly also assist in improving the slow oil & gas industry. Texas & Oklahoma would greatly appreciate this.

Fucking driving a car puts more people at risk than Corona virus, dipshits

Traffic nightmare!

It’s impossible to get on bus an maintain 6ft separation. I pass the driver within 3ft and others as I go down the isle.

What an idiotic suggestion. Tell that to the millions living in downtown areas where you have little to no parking options.

So just add to climate change which will kill us too 🙄

I think this conclusion will be countered somewhat by telecommuting and reduced air travel (particularly international), I think taking some liberties of an example from a suggestion to avoid close contact to create a clickbait article

KathyBrownKathy I haven’t seen any other nations do this, regardless of their level of covid outbreak. Sounds like the CDC is working for O&G 🧐

CDC should be the ones to pay for my driving lessons and a car then.

Like we have a choice?

Now that gas prices are up again.

Tone deaf suggestion. People ride the bus because they can't afford cars. They'd have one by now if they could.

What if u dont have a car?
