Challenges with CDC Maps Communication

The podcast discusses the challenges faced by the CDC regarding communication through their maps. It highlights how the map system combines cases, hospitalizations, and capacity, which can be misleading. While most areas may appear green on the map, a significant portion of the population lives in yellow and orange zones where masks are recommended. This discrepancy has led to confusion among the public, emphasizing the need for clearer communication strategies.
