****Of course, all politicians will ensure that they survive leaving their slave populace to fend for themselves.****

According to the Drudge Report, our leader’s daughters have NOT received the immunizations he wants all of us to get.

"A 32-year-old man with cystic fibrosis is rushed to the hospital with appendicitis in the midst of a worsening pandemic caused by the H1N1 flu virus, which has mutated into a more deadly form. The man is awaiting a lung transplant and brought with him the mechanical ventilator that helps him breathe."

Sheri Fink knows a shortage of mechanical ventilators isn't the main problem. This hypothetical guy and those who end up in the ICU as a result of H1N1 need ECMO machines. Their lungs are so wrecked and/or filled with snot that putting them on ventilation explodes their chests.
