The CDC’s materials push a “One Health” approach, hammering home the idea that human, animal, and environmental health are all connected. Students are thrown into hypothetical scenarios where they must respond to zoonotic (animal-origin) disease outbreaks using tools like contact tracing, social distancing and ratting on your neighbors who break government restrictions. (Which were all totally legal and worked during the last scamdemic, right—ed).
Pediatrician Dr. Michelle Perro warns this isn’t just education—it’s indoctrination. “It’s conditioning kids to accept future public health crackdowns without question,” she told The Defender.
Fear Sells: Kids Taught Compliance
Dr. Margaret Christensen didn’t mince words, calling the materials outright “propaganda.” She claims the CDC is grooming kids to believe the biggest threat to humanity is a mysterious disease jumping from animals to humans—a narrative that conveniently pushes vaccination as the only solution. “They’re teaching kids to fear nature and trust Big Pharma,” Christensen warned.
Attorney Sheri Snow Powers slammed the materials for painting public health authorities as infallible heroes. “This is dangerous,” she said. “It teaches kids to idolize bureaucrats and never question their decisions. It’s brainwashing, plain and simple.”
Choose Your Own Deception
The graphic novel, produced with the U.S. Department of Agriculture and Chinese government talking points, reads like a schlocky dystopian teen thriller according to GWU! media expert CJ Byner. “The cover is eerily reminiscent of a Tubi ripoff of Stranger Things. It follows a fictional disease outbreak linked to animals and teens with a dash of romance. Ick.”
Classroom activities tied to the comic include investigating outbreaks and tracing how a pig named Hamlet infects a teenager named Eddie. “Talk about ham fisted!” Other critics say the real story here is the CDC’s tax payer funded fear-mongering agenda.
Dr. Sherri Tenpenny blasted the materials for using a “fear-based narrative” that ignores the power of the human immune system. “They’re teaching kids to be terrified of pathogens while completely omitting the fact that our bodies are designed to handle most of these threats naturally,” she said.
Filthy Animals
Dr. Perro also took aim at the CDC’s narrow focus on zoonotic diseases, accusing the agency of ignoring critical factors like environmental toxins, industrial farming, and genetic engineering risks. “This isn’t about health—it’s about control,” she said. “They’re shaping the narrative to make kids believe pandemics like COVID-19 are ‘natural’ and unavoidable, rather than questioning if they could be man-made.”
And if you thought the CDC’s obsession with flu shots was new, think again clamors Byner. He points to a 2023 Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request that revealed the agency hired an advertising firm to write fake “news” articles promoting flu vaccines for kids and the elderly.
“In the end what’s really spreading here isn’t just a fictional virus,” explains Byner. “It’s a narrative designed to keep the next generation in line without opposition. The whole program is really just that, indoctrination rather than education.”
