President Trump put the wrong doctors (Fauci and Birx) as point-men for coronavirus. By far the smarter doctor and the more sane and infinitely more balance person to be spokesperson for coronavirus would be Dr Ben Carson as several Freepers have already suggested
Fauci and Birx? Send them to do “medical research ' at the US base in the North Pole and make sure they have no cell phones or Internet until after the election

So is he saying we will have a 2% death rate? If true, by the time Covid burns through the population that means ~6.5mm dead Americans. I would say that’s very unlikely.

[null and void]

98%?

That translates to a fatality rate of 2%, 20 times worse than a seasonal flu,bro!

If you use people who are actually sick (rather than merely positive) as the denominator, it's higher than that.

Even then, it's still not high enough to be civilization destroying.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.

Dr. Mengele (Fauci) and Hans Brix were definitely the wrong people to put forth in this situation.

Totally.

They are of the same Deep State "Experts" that have been "exerting" us into servitude and poverty since before World War II.

I believe Dr. Carson. And not Hillary’s boyfriend.

[Gay State Conservative]

And I’ll bet that it’s 99.9% of those under 80.

Dr. Carson is the best Nero Surgeon of our time. Great talent. Perhaps a genius.
I read about him 30 years ago.

The President has a good balance of advisors, including Mike Pence.
I hope Dr. Carson, and Surgeon General Adams are freely lending advice.

[Monkey Face]

I agree with that assessment 100%.

President Trump put the wrong doctors (Fauci and Birx) as point-men for coronavirus.

Actually they were okay for the defensive stage of the war. In war, when you are attacked, it should initiate three phases.

Phase one - organized defense to prevent being overwhelmed by the attacker.

Phase two - Organization of resources and establishment of logistics to sustain the war effort.

Phase three - Counter offensive to destroy the attackers ability to inflict further damage.

Fauci and Birx organized an effective defense. Pence and his team organized resources and logistics.

No one was put in charge of the counter offensive.

A military person should have been assigned this. The various weapons available (hydroxychloroquine, HiV drugs, transfusions, plasma therapy etc.) should have been deployed in a strategy driven offensive against the invader. Instead we have remained in a totally defensive posture, ergo Fauci and Birx at the forefront. Meanwhile doctors in the field and a few reactive universities have been limited to independent gorilla maneuvers to strike back at the invader.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Mr. President, WHY isn’t this brilliant man running the show instead of Fauci?

[zeugma]

Heretic! Burn him at the stake! You must panic! You must freely, and willingly give up all of your rights to the all powerful state!
