CMS Chief Verma: ‘We’re Hopeful’ Americans Can Adhere to Guidelines to Be in Better Place by June
Breitbart ^ | 4/2/20 | Trent Baker

Posted on 04/02/2020 1:52:32 PM PDT by david1292

On Fox News Channel’s “America’s Newsroom,” Verma echoed Vice President Mike Pence’s belief that the United States could see an improvement in the fight against the spread of the virus by early summer. She said the task force is “hopeful” the country will be “in a different place” by June.

“Well, what I’m optimistic about is just watching Americans in everyday life trying to adhere to 30 days to slow the spread,” Verma told host Ed Henry. “That’s what’s going to make the difference here. We want to reduce the number of people that get sick. We want to reduce the strain on the healthcare system. And watching Americans really try to adhere and to do their parts, neighbors helping neighbor, that’s what’s going to make the difference here”

“We have to remember that this is a changing situation. The decisions that we’re making are all data-driven, and that’s why we put that information out there so the American people can see exactly the type of information that the president is using to make those decisions. But we are hopeful that if everybody can adhere to 30 days to slow the spread, adhere to those guidelines, that we could be through this and hopefully by June we’re in a different place,” she added.

Seema Verma...Take a look at wiki. She doesn’t set policy...and shouldn’t be shooting off her mouth.

You can do whatever you want as long as it isn’t out in the open being in a crowd. No one is going to stop you. If they did, you’re on your way to the grocery store, or to check on your “at risk” relative (your sister), which is allowed.

Going into a neighbor’s house is crazy though, don’t do that. Go over, stand 6 feet apart somewhere outside and talk.

By the way, forgot to say we also drove to the next state west, saw some geologic sites, did some photo shots along a scenic drive and came home, all in about 5 hours.

This will all get straightened out when Biden talks with Trump and tells him what to do.

2 Apr: The Australian: Witch-burning cure will be deadlier than the virus
by RJ Smith
RJ Smith teaches law at Paris universities I (Pantheon-Sorbonne) and X (Nanterre).
We are in the midst of the strangest event of our lives. Societies have shut down. Families and whole nations face financial ruin. Walking the streets is now a crime from Paris to Sydney to Mumbai. And all of this has occurred not despite the will of the people but because of it...

But the questions arise: why are we surrendering our hard-won civil liberties and committing economic suicide when this virus poses a danger to only a small portion of our society? Why do we not pour all of our resources into protecting the vulnerable?

The answer is that a 24-hour news cycle, with its morbid tallying of deaths, images of corpses and sensationalist reporting of outlier cases has whipped the public into a frenzy that politicians have had to take extreme measures to appease

And anyone who questions the collective unreason is denounced on social media as a bloodthirsty mercenary who favours the economy over human life...

1 Apr: Frontier Post: Covid-19’s meant to be a new Black Death, but in Britain no more people are dying than normal. What does this say about the virus?
by Peter Andrews (Irish science journalist, based in London)
Many people are waking up to the fact that the Covid-19 “pandemic” is not turning out as billed. When we finally emerge from it, the big question will be how many people have died from the virus. Here’s the most likely outcome...

You can bet that the institutions of international government, and the “experts” advising them, will try to massage and cherry-pick statistics to present the version of events that most closely matches their worst-case scenarios. The fact is, according to their early predictions, we are already long overdue millions of Covid-19 deaths that have failed to materialise.
But even when Covid-19 deaths are recorded, we have seen how it could be that people are dying with coronavirus rather than dying of it...

Remember above all to not take the figures the mainstream media throw at you at face value; there are lies, damned lies and statistics.

Stop stuffing the bra with tissue and the flattening will be more obvious.

We can open back up once we have a viable method for treatment and sufficient drugs on hand to have people stay home and get well.

Think like for the flu...you walk into any pharmacy and can get Tamiflu.

Right now we don’t have the malaria cocktail available on that scale and we have state governors banning it and hospitals only giving it to the most sick. That just isn’t good enough at this point.

we are fine. we will be back in May, how many ppl do YOU PERSONALLY KNOW who have died from it?

You can’t shut down a country of over 300 million for these low numbers of deaths.

I cannot fathom why people are putting up with this horse crap. I just can’t figure it out.

I agree. Every little Mussolini from your nosy next door neighbors, your mayors, county execs and governors are simply giddy exercising dictatorial powers and with zero push back. Justified with lies, hyperbolic models by ‘experts’ and whipped into a frenzy by a hateful biased media.

How easy it was - not a shot fired, and poof! Bill of Rights shredded. This is the liberty better men died for? Free to cower in our homes? Free to lose our livelihoods and businesses by bureaucratic decree?

Good luck getting them back. The mini Mussolinis won’t relinquish that power voluntarily. And I don’t think Boobus Americanus has the guts to win them back, 200 million guns or not. Hey look, the NFL is back on!!! wooooo hoooo!!

Sad.

Because every time somebody says, "Let's start opening up the economy again", they are accused of wanting to kill people. So much so that they go back into their basement and shut up.

Sad isn’t it. I proudly stand for the majority of the nation who want to live their lives! Nanny- staters and fraidy-cats can pound sand!
We will mourn our lost and live our lives!
