Well, it was no surprise today when it was announced on all the news networks that Dr. Anthony Fauci is now clearly in Trump -the Gut's cross-hairs ! No surprise at all. Seems as though "the White House" has had enough of Dr. Anthony's facts, recommendations and specifically, fore-casts. The doctors comments over the weekend suggesting that the top officials in Washington knew of the seriousness of C-19 earlier then they acknowledged and went ignored, have now predictably upset poor Donald. Dr. Fauci is also on record, addressing the use of hydroxychloroquine - yet to have received any clinical data to support it's effectiveness. This flies in the face of "the Gut", who is strongly advocating it's wide-spread use with no concern about it's potential contraindications.
This is a clip from a recent news report:
A Brazilian study that saw 81 coronavirus patients given chloroquine was ended early after some of them developed irregular heart rates, according to The New York Times. Chloroquine is closely related to hydroxychloroquine, which President Trump has promoted as a potential treatment for the novel coronavirus despite little evidence of its efficacy. The Brazilian study in the city of Manaus saw half the study participants given a dose of 450 milligrams of chloroquine twice daily for five days, while the rest were prescribed a higher dose of 600 milligrams for 10 days. Within three days, researchers started noticing heart arrhythmias in patients taking the higher dose. By the sixth day of treatment, 11 patients had died, leading to an immediate end to the high-dose segment of the trial. The researchers said the study did not have enough patients in the lower-dose portion of the trial to conclude if chloroquine was effective in patients with severe disease.
If "Shoe Designer" Fauci told Trump that it wasn't required to tie his laces because the runners used Velcro........ Trump would tirade-TWEET that he is the real expert on shoes, knows more then Fauci, that Fauci is a "bad person"...and blah, blah blah. If trump could see past his 'Gut", he'd still rant-on that the Velcro is Fake News, a witch-hunt and then go tangent with his typical fall-back position using Hillary and Biden as the distraction.
Trump's real target for the "next to go" should be the White House's Navy Cadet, who is constantly holding up a sign of "recommendations", every time he's asked to respond to a C-19 question.
I fear the U.S's mismanagement of this health care crisis, in spite the absolute heroism of it's front-line workers, is going to drag-out this epidemic, globally, for far longer then if it were managed correctly.
Aside from Dr. Fauci , I'll trust Dr. Theresa Tam (Federal Health ) and Dr. Bonnie Henry (British Columbia), any day; to the "Cluster F*^@K" that's being orchestrated below the 49th. That's rhetorical I guess, considering "the Orchestra" has no conductor.
Can't help but think of "The Titanic".
FUX NEWS: President Trump has announced today that after an exhaustive investigation by his top advisors and marine experts: "We have concluded that there was no iceberg, the boat has merely been delayed by some "Nasty" weather, has not completely sunk and should be arriving in port, any day.
