In the early 1990s, Redfield faced charges of scientific misconduct for having misrepresented data about an experimental HIV vaccine he was involved with. Redfield was said to have claimed promising results from a small clinical trial of the vaccine, which was the focus of a lobbying campaign to sidestep peer review and increase its funding.

He was cleared of the charges, but the data published had to be corrected.

Former Air Force Lt. Col. Craig Hendrix of Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, who reported Redfield’s misuse of data spoke out following his appointment to the CDC.
“Either he was egregiously sloppy with data or it was fabricated,” said Hendrix, who questioned Redfield’s trustworthiness.

Redfield’s close relationship during the 1980s with the Association for a Sound AIDS Policy (ASAP), a group founded by evangelical Christians, is even more significant cause for concern. The group claimed that HIV/AIDS was “God’s judgment against LGBTQ people,” and spread as a result of single-parent households and loss of “family values

Um it's sort of important to have a non crazy heading CDC doncha think? Pandemic flus, new diseases, bio terror Oh dear God's will?

2. Given that Trump generally appoints people who are best suited to subvert/invert an entity's mission

it makes sense his CDC head would make us sick.

3. Trumps mission

is to destroy this country and everything that makes it great.

4. Sounds like one of Pence's picks.

He has close ties to the evangelical Christian group, and "pressed to prevent HIV/AIDS through sexual abstinence, monogamy, and the use of condoms only as a last resort."

I think it's highly likely that Pence picked/recommended this guy. He agrees with his views.

5. Another step on the path to Theocracy...
