#285: CDC - “Hoping for a New Plague”

"Nobel Laureate Kary Mullis ... recalled the institutional desperation [of the Public Health Service and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-CDC] during the Reagan administration era. He said of the CDC: “They were hoping for a new plague. Polio was over. There were memos going around the agency saying, ‘We need to find the new plague’; ‘We need to find something to scare the American people so they will give us more money.’”" 26*

Kary Banks Mullis (December 28, 1944 – August 7, 2019) was an American biochemist. In recognition of his role in the invention of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique, he shared the 1993 Nobel Prize in Chemistry with Michael Smith[3] and was awarded the Japan Prize in the same year. PCR became a central technique in biochemistry and molecular biology, described by The New York Times as "highly original and significant, virtually dividing biology into the two epochs of before PCR and after PCR."[4]
Mullis attracted controversy for denying humans' role in climate change and for expressing doubts that HIV causes AIDS. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kary_Mullis
