It seems some viral infection pandemics are more equal than others. At least when it comes to burning a vibrant Trump economy to the ground.
In September 2009, after millions had become infected with the H1N1 influenza and thousands had died, some of whom were young people and children, a relaxed and unalarmed Dr. Anthony Fauci told an interviewer that people just need "to use good judgment." (snip) It’s peculiar that nowhere in the 2009 video does Dr. Fauci suggest that in order to alleviate the stress on hospital supplies we "force, uh, delay, if not cancel anything that's elective

Never hear of this guy before this sham. I do know that he is a fan of Hillary's and that every time he gets up to talk, he spreads more panic. Either he wants his 15 minutes of fame before he goes back in the NIH closet or he is out to destroy President Trump. By doing it, he will destroy our economy by spreading more doom and gloom.

The more I read about this guy, the more convinced I am he needs to get gone. Or at least muzzle him. I imagine Trump has been made aware of this. I hope.

Excuse the second post.
#2. I have written to the Whitehouse that they need to muzzle this guy. He creates panic. Every time he speaks it is more gloom. I told them to remove him or keep in the background. Dr. Brix has to correct him or reverse the conversation after he speaks. I told them to keep her front and center.

Dr Birx calls Fauci her mentor. Said she has had privilege of working with him since AIDS outbreak.

I question him as well. Democrats had no hope of beating Trump in November UNLESS they could destroy his great economy! Well, one man has done that in only a few weeks! Common sense should prevail. We are adults. If we get sick, we stay home or go to the ER or Urgent Care. We don't stay home and wait to die. I think it's time to open up this country and get it rolling again before it is totally destroyed. I hope Trump's advisors have figured out what is happening, thanks to Fauci, and put a stop to it, now!

In the long run, Fauci may be simply...
anecdotal.

Fauci is a Hillary loving Democrat bureaucrat who is 79 years old and should have retired a decade ago. If President Trump keeps relying on his "advice" and that of the FDA - we are all screwed, the economy ruined and no second term for Trump. So next year when there is another strain of some flu or virus coming from China, we all locked down again? Europe survived the Black Death and this is not the plague.

Fauci and Ruthie both should have been put out to pasture long ago.

The thing absent from the article is a side by side comparison of H1N1 and the current virus.
What are the stats and the scientific facts that justify a different treatment of the two epidemics?
Doctors give Chemo to patients to kill camcer cells, right up to the point of killing the patient. The present Chemo is killing the economy. Will the patient survive even if the virus is killed?
Trump needs to go really big (I’m quoting him) while the dims are still frightened. After the virus fears pass (soon i hope) the dims will not be interested in helping the economy.
This also shows a weakness of our system. A dim house that won’t do anything blocking an Executive and Senate. The dims love to show that our system is weak and needs to be fixed.
As to the virus, I have read that it has been determined to have naturally evolved, and was not lab made. If true, does that mean that the Chinese government didn’t set up filthy circumstances for it to evolve in?

This should be a Must Read. Dr. Fauci's background and allegiances are a legitimate source of concern. Even more troubling is the video and his prior statements about how the H1N1 epidemic should have been handled, a completely different and non-interventionist approach.
I have been tracking the daily reported statistics on the current COVID-19 epidemic and even without comparing it to the seasonal flu or prior epidemics, I do not see anything in the statistics that warrant a complete shutdown of our economy and the forced lockdowns. Those actions seem unwarranted, unsupported by the statistics, and highly likely motivated by Machiavellian political motives. The fact they are being fanned not just by politicians and their media allies but also by certain medical professionals is incredibly disturbing.

Please pardon second post, but, if the msm's hysteria surrounding the crisis was for the sole purpose of damaging the President, may the msm be destroyed permanently. The financial and societal harm they have inflicted on Americans is incalculable.

I automatically subtract 20 points from someone’s IQ when I learn that they are a Democrat. But I will cut some slack for Fauci, an old time Democrat. I think he realized that he screwed up on the H1N1 epidemic and wasn’t going to do it again, thus his speaking tough on the Chinese Virus. He’s not going to make the same mistake. Of course, we will never know what conversations he had with the crooked Obama crew and Rahm and Ezekiel Emmanuel back in 2009. At least for now, incompetent Democrats aren’t running things...we have Trump and Pence, thank God! Don’t ever forget that!

I bet we would get results much faster, with less bureaucracy, if all salaries at he CDC were suspended, pending the results!

If Trump doesn't dump this guy after explaining why he is dumping him, Trump only needs to look in the mirror for why his administration is teetering on political disaster. He could also include Javanka as part of that mirror.

They are saying the shutdowns were to slowdown or flatten the curve so the health facilities would not be overwhelmed, and that they anyone who was going to get the virus will anyway, despite these measures, but it will be spread over a longer period to allow more preparation. What I am seeing is the health facilities are being overran, not by the coronavirus, but with people panicked that they may have the virus. After testing, 98% of those tested do not have it. Closing all the restaurants around the nation is ridiculous. I can see it in crowded urban areas maybe, but in Montana, Wyoming? This has been blown out of proportion and beyond common sense.

Listening to Dr. Fauci on the daily briefings,he always makes it a point that he is a "Scientist", and any move forward with treating the Virus with pharmaceuticals must meet HIS scientific criteria. But I'd bet he believes MMGW is :Settled Science".
Dr. Fauci should be left to his lab, if he even has one, and replace him with someone more concerned with treating this disease by any mean available, and stop waiting for the Ultimate Solution.
