Yeah, a step backward for useful science that can help healthcare facilities predict what's to come, and scientists study what is out there. Even as a member of the public I really liked being able to see the data just to have an idea of what's going on out there and take the necessary precautions to try my best at avoiding illness for me and my family. This seemed like something really cool that came out of the pandemic for illness tracking in general, but I'm not surprised the government of anti-science and anti-healthcare would silence this.
