Quote:Late last week, the US government overruled objections from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to put 14 coronavirus-infected Americans on an airplane with other healthy people.
The Trump administration swiftly leaked that the president was mad about this decision, and that nobody told him about it at the time. That could be true (or not — Trump and his team lie about things all the time). But even if it is true, it’s a confession of a stunning level of incompetence. The president is so checked out that he’s not in the loop even on critical decisions and is making excuses for himself after the fact.

I don't know which is worse, that he chose Pence or Pence saying yes. I would have resigned before accepting the lead role in doomed to fail assignment. And obviously Trump wants to blame Pence when it all goes to hell instead if taking the lead roll himself, suspending his campaigning and telling people he is giving this threat his full attention. But what do I know, I don't have a gold toilet.

Dr. Drew's beyond fed up with the media coverage of the coronavirus because he believes it's majorly overblown and causing hysteria ... while another major threat's being ignored.
The doctor was outside Beauty & Essex restaurant in L.A. Wednesday night went he went off on the media for misreporting the coronavirus, and even worse ... failing to point out facts in order to alleviate some of the panic.
According to Dr. Drew -- who was leaving sports agent Darren Prince's 50th bday bash -- coronavirus should be reported as being widespread, BUT, much milder of a virus than everyone is freaking out about. As he points out, there are tens of thousands of people infected ... but only a few hundred deaths.
By comparison, roughly 60,000 people die from the flu each year in the U.S. alone ... and it can be as high as 646,000 on average worldwide!!!
So, it's safe to say Dr. Drew's right when he says influenza is way more of a killer than the coronavirus ... so you should get your flu shot. We know Dr. Oz agrees too.

But, fact is, it's not like the flu...at all. The shills spouting this nonsense continue to do a disservice. The death rate is upwards of 3% maybe more, vs. the flu which is about .1% in the US. Dr. Drew is an idiot, so is Dr. Oz.

I'm far from hysterical, just a truth seeker and watching the media, President, continue to try and sugar coat something that can't be sugar coated is fascinating to watch.
edit to add: and for that matter, I'd say there is very little hysteria for the most part in this country, people could care less. After all, "it's just the flu"

Truth! Dr. Drew is an internal medicine/addiction specialist and Dr. Oz is a cardiothoracic surgeon... both are TV personalities... neither are Infectious disease specialists.
