March 13, 2020 (LifeSiteNews) As Americans clamor for information about the Trump administrations response to the coronavirus outbreak and what the presidents Democrat opponents would do differently, some are raising red flags over former vice president Joe Bidens team of advisers on the subject, one of whom has a history of suggesting that the elderly would be better off dead.
On Wednesday, the Biden campaign announced the creation of a Public Health Advisory Committee, which will help the candidate minimize health risks for the candidate, staff and supporters. The panel includes the University of Pennsylvanias Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, former Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy, former homeland security advisor Lisa Monaco, former Food & Drug Administration commissioner Dr. David Kessler, Georgetown University Medical Centers Dr. Rebecca Katz, and Columbia Universitys Dr. Irwin Redlener.
While several of the names were advisers to the Obama administration in crafting the intensely controversial Affordable Care Act (better known as Obamacare), Emanuels inclusion on the list has raised concerns for an additional reason. In 2014, he wrote that he hope[s] to die at 75, because living too long renders people uncreative, unable to work, faltering and declining, and transforms how people experience us, relate to us, and, most important, remember us. We are no longer remembered as vibrant and engaged but as feeble, ineffectual, even pathetic.
Writing at National Review, Discovery Institute senior fellow Wesley Smith reviews the Atlantic essay in which Emanuel made these statements, finding that his example could have grave consequences if applied to older Americans, who are particularly at risk from coronavirus.

He’s only 62.
And at that age is is useless to Society.
I’d suggest that fascist leftists like him should be gone by age 60.
Bernie being the prime example of late.
Old people are uncreative? Like Grandma Moses? What unspeakable arrogance.
Well I agree with him a little bit. I do think he should die at 75. Or even sooner.
Geez, how old is Biden? 78? He is WAY past his expiration date then.

Does Zeke know Biden is 77?
Nothing to worry about. We are all going to expire in some 10+ years.
Let’s start with Nancy Pelousy and George Sore-Ass?
Don't worry...he'll change his mind on his 74th birthday....but like all arrogant liberals he will admit he was really right...but off by 10 years on the age...he meant 85...../s
this, the National Review article, and The Atlantic article, need to go viral.
