Fauci is not ready for prime time. They should keep him in a back room and some one should be designated to listen attentively and nod.

Trump is an idiot for keeping these Zero Heros around.”

Too late he cannot get rid of this guy, He is stuck with him like so many other holdovers. In Trump defense no one saw this coming so no way to see this guy would be the constant problem he has become. The guy used the word “could” to paint the worst picture..again. Never balanced it.

He is 10times over current numbers, and the numbers are not growing exponentially enough to reach Fauci’s prediction.

Fauci is an “expert” that had been saying, many times over three decades, that an HIV “cure” or “vaccine” is just around the corner.

ItnIS just a flu, albeit MAYBE more serious to some. No one said to go out and party but shutting down the world for this horsesh*t virus is so obviously a scam it boggles the mind.

All the experts make wild eyed claims about how many will die only to have to walk them back. As with most all flu’s the elderly suffer the most and in this particular flu they seem to be the ONLY ones dying in numbers with so far not a single death of anyone under 15 and maybe 2 reported for any teenager or early 20’s individual.

"Why say anything?"

Because giving your best informed estimate helps drive policy decsions and could save lives. Why should he be silent?

And how should we interpret this prediction in the context of the 1918 Spanish Flu pandemic,

Well the Spanish flu is proof that deadly pandemics can and do occur. This pandemic is much worse than the seasonal flu, but not expected to be as bad as the Spanish flu.

The doc is a flubro! In 2018 the cdc estimated 40 million Americans got sick and upwards of 100,000 died from the flu. So, let’s call that the over/under for this virus. I’ll take under. My guess is as good as anybody’s. We’ll know soon either way. Now I’m off the go golf.

>>>The U.S. government’s foremost infection disease expert self-promoting bureaucrat Fixed it for ya

Feel free to post YOUR numbers

1) put your over/under on total deaths by September 30th (the official end of flu season) for Covid-19 and

2) give the numbers of what you think the deaths would have been had Phase 2C (the U .S. Government COVID - 19 Response Plan being pushed on the states by the Trump/Pence team that calls for "cancellation of almost all sporting events…performances…public and private meetings …” stay at home ” directives for public and private organizations) not been followed by many states (including NY or Louisiana).

People are real quick to criticize what they say it is not-but so far - I’ve seen very few quantify what it will be in writing and I’ve seen fewer memorialize that for the record.

Here’s your chance. Be a hero. Prove Fauci is what you say he is - Memorialize your numbers - right here - right now.

When is clown Fauci going to release Hydroxychloroquine to treat patients. He is protecting big Pharma bank accounts. Time for Dr. Fauci to retire.

Current number are not the future.

I would think that when a doctor with a history of issuing overly optimistic statements, tells you that this pandemic is serious, that you would pay attention.

Can you even imagine the outrage and repercussion if Fauci was fired? Let him there to make a fool of himself, not a martyr.

No one is sure where this ends up. No one.

Alluding to people on here who are seriously concerned about this as being “fags” is not helpful at all.

Everyone is stressed. People are reacting to it differently.

Beating up on each other here on FR is not helpful at all.

My two cents anyway.
