The June 28 email to the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was ominous: A senior adviser to a top Health and Human Services Department official accused the CDC of undermining the President by putting out a report about the potential risks of the coronavirus to pregnant women....

As the country enters a frightening phase of the pandemic with new daily cases surpassing 57,000 on Thursday, the CDC, the nations top public health agency, is coming under intense pressure from President Trump and his allies, who are downplaying the dangers in a bid to revive the economy ahead of the Nov. 3 presidential election. In a White House guided by the presidents instincts, rather than by evidence-based policy, the CDC finds itself forced constantly to backtrack or sidelined from pivotal decisions.
The latest clash between the White House and its top public health advisers erupted Wednesday, when the president slammed the agencys recommendation that schools planning to reopen should keep students desks six feet apart, among other steps to reduce infection risks. In a tweet, Trump who has demanded schools at all levels hold in-person classes this fall called the advice very tough & expensive.
While they want them open, they are asking schools to do very impractical things. I will be meeting with them!!! Trump tweeted Wednesday. The CDC was already planning to issue new guidelines in the coming days. But Vice President Pence on Wednesday explicitly tied the effort to Trumps ire.
The president said today we just dont want the guidance to be too tough, Pence told reporters. And thats the reason next week the CDC is going to be issuing a new set of tools.

There is a vaccine for H1N1. It’s part of the annual flu shot. It was first developed in the 1940s. Influenza has a rapid rate of mutation and it takes months to produce a new vaccine for it, hence why it isn’t always very effective.
Vaccines for SARS and MERS made it to phase 3 trials before funding was cut because those diseases burned out pretty quickly. Some of the SARS-CoV-2 candidates are based directly on the SARS-CoV-1 vaccine candidates that made it to phase 3 trials.
I do not believe ANY numbers on COVID unless explained FULLY!
Asymptomatic? Hospitalized? Just how sick? Underlying conditions.
Source of statistics.
We can not trust the news media OR the government on this.
The deaths are increasing but the percentage is very low, compared to the case rate
If the governors had not politicized medical treatment, with the shameful submission of the medical community....and if they were honest with people about losing weight and controlling high blood pressure and diabetes to reduce risk...fewer people might be dying
And people are coming over the southern border for treatment
Actually, hes a tool and the left are using him to great advantage. Our task is blunt his edge. The simplest way to do that may be for someone to ask him on camera if there is a way to live a risk free life.
“build the healthiest body you can starting yesterday.”
I had surgery in early June. The surgeon’s protocol is to beef up your system with vitamins (including D3), minerals, electrolytes, hydration, etc., for 30 days prior to surgery — also the 30 days after surgery.
I’d had the same procedure 15 years ago, and the difference is amazing when it comes to recovery. The bounce-back in 2005 past took weeks. This time it was only a few days. Before, strength was zapped for weeks — anesthesia, etc.; this time, within two days strength was exactly where it had been.
You are correct, i.e., “start yesterday” to build up your system. After this experience, I’m a believer.
Just another reason to keep getting that wall built! I haven’t seen a progress report in a while. I hope they’re working hard on it. I think the last I saw they had around 300 miles done and another 200 in progress.
Not mentioned anywhere: Hospitals have reopened for “elective” business.
EVERYONE coming in for “routine tests”, imaging, and elective surgery gets a COVID test.
And well all know that more testing >>> more “cases”.
Ho$pital$ get a big federal check for each COVID patient.
Follow the money.
GFY, Poindexter, and say hello to your CCP masters.
But lets just shut down everything and hand it all over to China.
Whatever scorched earth it will take to remove the Orange Man, because he is bad and a threat to big donors endless free taxpayer money fountains
“why are all these people not dying?”
My take is that testing was reserved early on for those showing prominent symptoms as test kits were in short supply. The healthier, more youthful were not tested early.
Now that we have plenty of test kits, the healthier, less-at-risk folks are testing. Many are positive but asymptomatic.
What I do question is the criteria for hospitalization. I do believe the timing of many of these things is very much political.
Deaths are going up now, the last stage. Phoenix just ordered refrigerated trucks since the morgues are getting full.
I’m sorry if basic factual knowledge triggers you. Perhaps a little time in your safe space will help. That said, there’s no need for such language.
I have done that. As soon as I read about this virus on FR - back in January - I started on several supplements like Olive Leaf Extract, NAC, 25 mg Zinc, Glutathione, Rx vit D, Querciten with Bromelain. I eat healthy food: low carb to maintain low sugar. Moderate exercise. I tend to have body inflammation b/o h/o autoimmune.
I learned of all these supplements right here on FR over the past months. THANKS FR
That's the Democrat mayor's politically-motivated terror fable. A closer look reveals morgue rates are still in the normal range. Believe what you read in the MSM with great care.
You have an amazing doc!! Right on!!
You are definitely going to get through any exposure to covid so well. Bravo! Oregano essential oil is another great one to have. It was part of the famous thieves oil in the Black Plague, so called because the robbers who stole valuables out of the homes of the sick and dead would put it onto cloths and cover their faces and go in and get the goods. And never got sick. No need to ingest it but at the slightest symptom you can diffuse it in water (in a diffuser) near your bed, as well as rubbing it straight onto the soles of your feet Before bed. (Can add socks but dont have to - beware though that you not get up and possibly slip on a hard floor in the night) If you were to rub it on other skin areas, say your chest, youd want to dilute it greatly with a carrier oil.
