Good info for the most part, but according to new data, his last paragraph is skewed ...
....not as dire now as he predicted

if you take a look at the models that are coming out of the Imperial College in England, it suggests that it could be as many as to [2 million], [2 and a half million] Americans who die during the course of this disease.

Brilliant.

I was hoping he would talk about the combination of Hydroxychloroquine (plaquenil) and Azithromycin. Is he not aware of their potential to knock out the impact of the virus? Appears he is unaware and talking smack.

I noticed that until today the number of recoveries in the US was very low compared to the number of deaths. It’s finally surpassed the number of deaths.

And there is something weird with Worldometer. Look at the number of daily deaths for the US.

https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/

It was on a steady increase, peaking at 525 on the 28th. But on the latest update, the number of daily deaths is 8.

“The fictional virus that we created in the movie ‘Contagion’ is far worse than [COVID-19],” he says. “We made that movie in order to kind of refute the sentiment in the country after the swine flu of 2008-2009, where people thought, ‘Ho hum, if that’s what a pandemic is, I’m not worried.’ We wanted to kind of rejigger people’s sentiments, so they understood what a real pandemic would look like.”

All fiction is created to make a political or cultural point - except maybe porn. Often the script writers don’t even know they are doing it. But it looks like that movie was raw propaganda. I’ve never seen it.

But the bottom line is that only in movies are these things real.

We need to get back to work and prevent the Great Depression II.

This is gonna leave a mark.

I’m not sure who he is, but he’s quoting reports that have been refuted - by the author. That’s a big deal because that report created quite a frenzy. (Imperial college)

Couple observations:

1) three moonshots

“get antivirals quicker”

- hydroxychloroquine is being ramped up & shipments are arriving

“get respirators and ventilators made cheaper in the United States right now, “

- numerous companies starting production, including auto & 3-d

“work on test kits and to get so many test kits that they’re so cheap, they’re done at home”

- 5 minute test kits are being produced

2) prediction

Quotes old British prediction about cases and deaths in the US”.

This has been since walked back, to far far fewer of each.

I have a prediction as far as any future vaccine: it will be costly, and COVID-19 will suddenly be discovered “unstable” in order to create the ongoing revenue stream that they love so much. There was a time not all that long ago when I would have sneered at people ranting about “big pharma” because they were obviously leftists and anti-business to the core. However, since the advent of Obamacare and the pharmaceutical industry jumping in bed with the permanent governing class, the shoe is completely on the other foot. Suspicion is warranted. A quick, simple and cheap treatment for COVID-19 can’t be allowed in the minds of these people. It’s a threat to their little fiefdoms and it’s a threat to a tremendous amount of money coming in annually, to the tune of billions.
