You forgot Fauci and Birx.
That was funny!
Birx is a clown, I think that much has been evident. Fauci is one of the top infectious diseases experts in the world. He didn't just happen into his role. That he has been "wrong" about some things is likely more reflective of the fact that we didn't know a lot about this virus and are still learning a lot about it daily – scientists included. They react and make statements based upon what they know scientifically in the moment.Fauci has been spectacularly wrong on this thing from the beginning. Remember when he went on Meet the Press in late February and said "sure...go on a cruise if you want?" How about when Oprah went on her show during the AIDS pandemic and said that one in five heterosexuals would die from HIV within three years, based on the scaremongering of Fauci and others? How's that AIDS vaccine coming along - his main job for the last 30 years?
Birx was asked twice in the past week about all these serological tests coming out all over the country - including the one Cuomo released from NY - in which every single one is showing much higher rates of infection than the numbers being reported - "Doesn't this mean that the virus is less lethal than originally claimed by a factor of 10..15....50 to 85?" She doesn't answer (because the answer is "yes"). Instead she pivots to the dangers of asymptomatic infection - yes, that's true, but that wasn't the question.
Orange Man Bad has been awful, sure. But he's also getting advice from these two clowns.
Thanks for sharing.I found this article interesting on a number of levels. Not intending to make a political statement by posting it, just thought others might find the two pandemic responses, roughly 50 years apart, of interest in developing a balanced view. Enjoy.

We have flattened the curve, but the goalposts moved. Now some appear intent on flattening the economy.Yes, life went on as normal 50 years ago and about 100,000 died in the US from that pandemic. We will soon be at 100,000 US deaths for this pandemic without life being normal. It is scary to think how many deaths we would have if we just let life be normal. I fear we are currently starting things up too soon, and in way too much of a hurry to get things back to normal.
"Fifteen days to flatten the curve."We have flattened the curve, but the goalposts moved. Now some appear intent on flattening the economy.
No one's goal is to flatten the economy. That's ridiculous. The curve may have flattened, but we still have a long way to go before we live normal again. Why not wait at least a little longer till we can at least see the cases per day or week dramatically lowered? To open everything back up at once, and act l everything is fine would be an absolute disaster right now.
Ding! Ding!
That's kind of like saying your basketball coach is one of the best in the world because he's been in the job longer than anyone else.Birx is a clown, I think that much has been evident.

On March 30, he predicted between 100,000 and 200,000 deaths in the US. So far that seems pretty accurate.

Nah, I didn't say anything about Fauci's longevity suggesting that he is the best. I think his body of work suggests he is someone who should be trusted to provide fair and impartial fact-based analysis at any given moment in time, as well as fact-based scientific projections about various things that could happen in the future.That's kind of like saying your basketball coach is one of the best in the world because he's been in the job longer than anyone else.![]()
Actually, the CFR for a black male in his fifties in the US is under 1%, and with no underlying co-morbidities, closer to 0.1%. I wish him well.I wish him well too! He is 58 so based on current statistics , assuming no underlying chronic medical condition, his chances of survival exceed 99% so that is good.
