    THANK GOODNESS FOR THE SUCCESS OF THE TRUMP ANTIVIRUS POLICIES! 

     

    Fauci Says U.S. Virus Deaths May Be 60,000, Half of Projections.

     “Fatalities of as many as 200,000 Americans had been estimated.”

    Actually, at one point they were talking 2.5 million.

  3. New York county executives want Cuomo to lift restrictions on hydroxychloroquine treatment

    New York county executives want access to the anti-malarial drug hydroxychloroquine that Gov. Andrew Cuomo conceded showed early “effective” responses in COVID-19 virus patients in current clinical trials, which he began allowing within the state two weeks ago.

     

    The Democratic governor told reporters at his daily briefing in Albany on Monday he would ask President Trump to raise the federal supply of hydroxychloroquine to New York pharmacies. This would enable the state to lift the current restriction on purchases of the drug, which Trump has touted as a potential antidote to the coronavirus, which has killed nearly 10,000 people and has much of the nation on lockdown.

     

    “There has been anecdotal evidence that it is promising,” Cuomo said while noting the lack of a formal study.

     

    New York county executives, according to Steve McLaughlin of Rensselaer County, have discussed the issue of with one another and wondered why Cuomo prohibited the treatment from being dispensed to different parts of the state.

     

    “I think most of us would say, 'Why are our doctors and pharmacists being prevented by Cuomo from even prescribing it?' Which right now, he put a block on that, and you can't even really get your hands on it.” McLaughlin told the Washington Examiner. "So, I think most of us are saying, 'Listen, in a life or death [situation], if somebody is really sick, I think that you'd want them to be able to do it without having to be in Cuomo's study.'”

    As to Magox's excellent point about President Trump, I think that this is why the U.S. was so fortunate to have a (essentially) non-politician as POTUS

     

    As a businessman he weighed those outcomes and made decisive moves to help the country as a whole, not a political one.

  5.  World Health Organization ‘China centric’ leader launches bizarre attack on Taiwan.

     

    The leader of the World Health Organization has gone on a bizarre rant attacking Taiwan while claiming to be the victim of racist comments and death threats.

     

    WHO general manager Tedros Adhanom was responding to calls he should resign for failing to condemn China’s role in covering up the coronavirus crisis which has since killed more than 87,000 people.

     

    “This (racial) attack came from Taiwan,” he said.

     

    “We need to be honest. I will be straight today. From Taiwan.

     

    “And Taiwan, the Foreign Ministry also, they know the campaign. They didn’t disassociate themselves. They even started criticizing me in the middle of all that insult and slur, but I didn’t care.”

     

    Sky News Australia revealed yesterday Mr Adhanon was blocking the release of the names of doctors who voted against declaring a global health emergency in late January, resulting in tens of thousands of deaths.

     

    Two days prior to that decision Mr Adhanom was photographed happily smiling with Chinese dictator Xi Jinping.


    China was at that stage lobbying the world, Including Australia, not to implement economically devastating travel bans.

     

    US President Donald Trump has also threatened to withdraw funding from the WHO and formally investigate the body he described as being “China centric”.

     

    That’s polite. “Chinese tool” is accurate. But, you know, those don’t hold up well under hard use. And complaints of racism are a tired defense of commies and incompetents.
