On Monday, Joe Biden — who has claimed the mantle of president-elect while President Donald Trump continues to contest the preliminary election results — named 13 health experts to his Transition COVID-19 Advisory Board, including former Obamacare architect Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel. Back in 2014, Emanuel published an op-ed in The Atlantic saying he wants to die at age 75 because life simply isn’t worth living after that point. The op-ed isn’t just personal, either — it attempts to convince the reader that death may be preferable to living to an advanced age.
Biden named three co-chairs to the advisory board: Dr. David Kessler, who served as FDA commissioner under George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton; Dr. Vivek Murthy, the surgeon general under Barack Obama; and Dr. Marcella Nunez-Smith, an associate professor of internal medicine, public health, and management at Yale University.
Other notables on the board include Dr. Beth Cameron, who helped create a “pandemic playbook” under Obama, and Dr. Rebecca Katz, who served on the Biden campaign’s advisory committee on COVID-19. Emanuel also served on the advisory committee during the campaign.
“Dealing with the coronavirus pandemic is one of the most important battles our administration will face, and I will be informed by science and by experts,” Biden said in a statement. “The advisory board will help shape my approach to managing the surge in reported infections; ensuring vaccines are safe, effective, and distributed efficiently, equitably, and free; and protecting at-risk populations.”
As of Monday, the U.S. has neared 10 million coronavirus cases with more than 237,000 recorded deaths. Hospitalization rates and death rates are falling but the disease remains a serious concern, especially for the elderly.

I’m 65 and have had a Flu Shot AND a Pneumonia Shot!................
That’s great Zeke. So off yourself now, why wait.
Joe Biden is 77
Well that’ll take care of that Social Security shortfall, won’t it?
This A-Hole again.
Let’s see if he follows though on his promise.
Like all those who said they would move to Canada.
There are young druggies in my neighborhood. Is their life worth living? There are success stories amongst them but one should never give up. Btw the libertarian in me says suicide should be legal as long as someone else doesn’t have to clean up the mess.
Hey Zeek, ESAD. I’m 76 have a hot 72 y/o babe we have a grand old time. BTW she still looks great in a bikini. DM
This Ahole wanted to lock us down in our houses for 18 months last march and it did not matter that the economy went to bed. He said it was worth it.
Hey, Emanuel, I’m 76 and I look forward to pissing on your grave.
Never had a flu shot, don’t intend to start now
Well, okay, Zeke. We’ll do that for you in 12 years.
Lol. He’ll be changing his tune.
But Rat Party Headquarters calculated that bringing the economy to its knees was what was required to bring down Orange Man Bad.
The jury's still out on whether they'll succeed or not.
Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel was born in 1957... He’s clueless.
Maybe Clint Eastwood could explain life after 75 can be just wonderful...
“That’s great Zeke. So off yourself now, why wait!?”
I’m 82 and my wife is 80!
We are still enjoying our lives, loving our grown children, all most grown grand kids, siblings and good friends.
Post of the day
I think Ezekiel Emanuel should die at 63.
RE: Lol. He’ll be changing his tune.
Or he could die before he reaches 75. Our lives are not in our hands ultimately.
He has #78 on Nov. 20
JUST 11 DAYS AWAY...
CHRIS WALLACE said Sunday , Joe will be 78, close to when he is sworn in...but Chris, he will be ten months shy of 79 when he is sworn in...Get over it Wallace...Biden is OLD as are You....time stands still for NO ONE.
That’s the best outcome.
I have no more patience for this type of evil. How easy to sit behind a desk and condemn other people to death. How easy to say life isn’t worth living after age 75. What a POS. I say his life isn’t worth living now.
