Hard to believe this POS(speaking of Obama) was ever POTUS.
I do not like what I am hearing about the shutdown lasting 1-2 months more. Pure insanity.
The destruction of the economy and the end of lives to other factors other than the virus must be taken into account.
Dr Tom Frieden, former head of the CDC, forecast 1.2 million dead with the 2014 Ebola outbreak in Africa. The death toll was 11,323 from 2014 - 2016. The forecast by groups in regard to COVID19 are just as bad. I took a swag and said the death rate in 2020 would be 40,000 to 60,000 when it first broke out, when the high and mighty were saying 1- 2 million deaths. They then moved it down to 100,000 to 250,000, and now in the last day or two, revised their numbers downward again to 61,400 to 80,000.
I based my number on nothing more than quesstimate, wthout some fancy model. They are now down to the upper edge of my number, and I suspect they will reduce their number further. In the end, many positive things are happening. I suspect the real number infected is in the tens of millions. And with the passage of time, that number will increase. So many will be immune from this virus.
Next, where we did not have therapies in place to fight this virus, doctors are working with a number of therapies that are in fact saving lives. With time, doctors will determine what therapies work best in dealing with this virus. When my wife and I had it, and we were not tested for it, but we believe we had it, they were not offering tests for COVID19. We were tested for the flu, and the test was negative. I have spoken to many that had the same experience. No tests available, we had the symptoms, and weathered through it, as did many in the country.
The foot draggers Trump is surrounded by still do not have an antibody test available, and the people involved in that should be terminated. Having that data would provide critical data for informing the president of when to resume normal living. Right now, he has zero data on how many in the USA have been subjected to this virus. Zero.
The CDC is horribly negligent in preparing this country for a pandemic. Inadequate supplies, no tests for the virus, no tests for the antibodies, nothing. Trump talks about being confronted with wartime conditions when the CDC, NIH and FDA are approaching this outbreak like it is business as usual. Every time Dr Fauci opens his mouth, I cringe in disgust. How many people will die because of his normal bureaucratic mindset? Too many!!!
There is a German firm that is being ignored that has had an antibody test that is accurate. They can't get to first base with the FDA. The inaction by the medical pukes sure does appear to be anti Trump in nature. I'm tired of that bullsh*t!!!
