as of July 16, supposedly due to lack of funding (look here:

The Clearinghouse was an significant database containing myriad
guidelines.  Since 2017 guidelines were were vetted for trustworthiness in
terms of their adherence to the US Institute of Medicine standards (look
here:

could find no media or health care/ medical literature coverage of the
shutdown.
