There is much here that will set some Freepers' hair on fire, but I posted it because the author makes some interesting points. Please do not shoot the messenger. I would love to see some doctors weigh in on this.

I know a lot of those ICU Drs, ICU nurses, and Resp. Techs
I have watched, real time, their changing awareness
and adaptive approaches to this damn virus.

Never call them stupid, rigid, or inept in my presence...

If all it took to get $69 million from the State of New York, I’d have joined Twitter and texted President Trump myself.

Science is not a set of facts. Science is a method by which we try to work out facts. But when science course-corrects in the public eye, instead of being lauded as improving our models, the public and media seize on it by saying, "Doctors don't know what they're doing. Doctors are killing people."

The issue is not the course correction, it was the original course selected based on wildly inaccurate guesses baked into the models.

The author is scientifically illiterate and politically tone deaf.

Someone just died because a newbie didnt set the ventilator right..

But the real issue is that more and more Doctors are starting to think they have approached this wrong.

See Medcram youtube video for more info.

"When it first hit our shores, we thought it would behave in the same way that other pneumonias that cause an acute respiratory distress..."

Just Wow! Who hired this moron? COVID-19 has been the biggest news story in months and this guy claims it is pneumonia (bacteria), with the common name of CoronaVIRUS? Amazing he doesn't know the difference. School children do.
