Former White House COVID response chief: 'Our work was littered with failures'
NWTimes ^ | Oct 17, 2021 | Doug Ross

WESTVILLE — Dr. Deborah Birx stressed the need for cooperation, a sense of community and continued research and learning in addressing this pandemic and future ones.

Birx, who served as White House coronavirus response coordinator, gave an overview of the pandemic from her insider’s perspective Sunday as part of the Purdue Northwest Sinai Forum speakers series.

Birx’s lecture, and the question-and-answer period afterward, showed she is still concerned about learning lessons from the response to the pandemic, both during the Trump administration and now in the Biden administration.

“I think I can read between the lines and realize how totally squelched you were in the previous administration,” one audience member remarked. He asked her about the “Clorox moment,” the time when she visibly flinched after President Donald Trump asked during a news conference about the efficacy of injecting disinfectants to treat COVID-19 patients.

“I knew in that moment we all lost complete credibility,” Birx said.

“I do realize there are a lot of people who thought I should have gotten up, run across the stage and tackled him,” she said.

It is interesting that she talks about all this as if someone else had a work history “littered with failures”.

Repeating the “Clorox moment” lie where they took Trump out of context for the zillionth time.

Remember that she let slip the fact that CDC couldn’t be trusted.

If she’s a big data person, why isn’t she talking about the end of the Delta variant infections? As of October 17th total U.S. cases dropped like a boulder in the ocean to less than 17,000 cases, down from 192,000 on September 1st. That’s the data: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailycases

Sorry folks, but this Scarfed Pig needs to shut the eff up.

Tens of thousands of your fellow Americans died BECAUSE of her neglect and misinformation.

In any real world, her rotting corpse would be swinging from a rope next the Her Thighness.

The ding bat reporter was the one that came up with “injecting disinfectant”. DJT did not say that at all. Lying SOBs.

They lost all credibility when she admitted to counting all deaths as covid deaths if they merely showed any of the growing list of symptoms.

Well, before that...but that was when I realized that this power grab would be with us for a decade or more and most likely lead to concentration camps.

Back in the 90s, I was up to my eyeballs in AIDS data from CDC and WHO. It was obvious that CDC was fudging the numbers as to who was getting infected. They haven’t changed.

Didn’t the Scarf Hag have to resign in 2020 because she was caught out breaking quarantine/travel rules the little people must obey while her family all got together for Thanksgiving?

“Back in the 90s, I was up to my eyeballs in AIDS data from CDC and WHO. It was obvious that CDC was fudging the numbers as to who was getting infected. They haven’t changed.”

The history of bad medicine/politics goes way further back than that...just a few of the top of my head:

Initial series of anthrax vax...

Jimmy Carters 1976 Swine flu vax...

Thaliodmide birth defects in the 50s, 60s....

Spanish flu and connection to the Rockerfeller vax...

Dr. John Sappington wrote about the corruption of the medical establishment back in the 19th century...when he sold his anti-malaria quinine pills....

Infuriating really. So, you can medicate with Marijuana but no one describes it as injecting weed into your body. You could make Tylenol sound equally crazy.

Yeah, cases dropped but that’s only because most people are dead.

The fact is the world was dealing with an unknown potential bioweapon.

I would expect at the start to have a lot of failures, over precautionary tactics, etc.

Overall though…Trump had a good response to an event never faced at a global scale. An escaped gain of function virus.

Sadly, the lies just continued from the very people charged with protecting the American public
