It's hard to impossible to prove, especially when the CDC and NIMH are run by the firearms-friendly Trump administration.  I went to several websites for both, and the hints were there but nothing firm.  Dissing the boss is a good way to derail your career.

Or more likely you're pulling your "facts" from your ass.  Occam's Razor says the simplest solution is often the best solution.  In this case I can either believe that your actually went to several websites that you didn't bother to archive, accurately remembered the information there, and that there is a conspiracy in top levels of government to suppress that information;

Or alternatively you are just making shit up because it fits your world view.

You wouldn't be the first Boomer person I've encountered who likes truthiness over truth.

OK, here's a bit of inside baseball by a former CDC investigator and, oddly enough, gun enthusiast.  She's written several articles on the subject, all with the same general spin: the CDC, and NIMH also, fail to investigate things that may get them defunded.  It will be interesting to see whether that's still the case if the NRA continues to collapse under it's ongoing scandals.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
