Lol, take a shot of JD you dry drunk. You were pushing the bleach reach for months.
Says the mouth breathing empty suit. Please enlighten us, what’s wrong with Dr. Seheult’s video.
The only reasonable conclusion is that Brix is an idiot. She is providing Trump with what he wants to hear instead of the truth.
Dr. Deborah Birx Told The White House That Coronavirus Surge Was Fading: Report
A damning New York Times report reveals that Birx encouraged the Trump administration to believe the virus was soon coming to an end.

Dr. Deborah Birx, the White House coronavirus task force coordinator, insisted to the Trump administration that the coronavirus pandemic would soon slow down, comparing the U.S. to Italy and its experience with the virus, The New York Times revealed in a damning report published Saturday.
Birx believed that the U.S. would see a peak in cases, followed by a slow and lasting decline, just as Italy has seen, the Times reported.
Her optimistic take on models assessing the virus apparently encouraged President Donald Trump to put pressure on states to relax regulations meant to slow the spread of the virus in mid-April, the Times reported.
The paper interviewed more than two dozen administration officials and reviewed emails and documents to uncover how the White House handled its response to the spread of COVID-19.
Birx reportedly began describing the government’s response to the pandemic as “putting out the embers,” and the White House task force was convinced that another surge in infections wouldn’t happen until the fall, senior administration officials told the Times.
But Birx’s predictions were wrong.
According to the Times’ analysis, Birx’s assumption did not take into account states’ efforts to reopen prematurely.
Texas, which rolled back its restrictions, saw its largest increase in COVID-19 cases in a day in May, a record the state broke again in June.
Arizona reopened some businesses in early May, and the state’s number of average daily cases more than doubled.
By May 19, the U.S. was around 10,000 shy of hitting 100,000 total deaths related to the virus. Just over a week later, the country exceeded that grave milestone.
Despite the surge in cases, Trump and White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany continue using the phrasing that Birx reportedly used to describe the surges.
In late June, McEnany told reporters at a press briefing that the administration was “aware there are embers that need to be put out,” arguing that the U.S. was “uniquely equipped” to handle the increase in cases over the summer.
In an interview on Sunday, Trump described the current rise in cases as “burning embers” and “flames,” though he maintained that it was “under control.”
Trump also said that the virus and pandemic would just “disappear.”
“I’ll be right eventually,” Trump told Fox News’ Chris Wallace Sunday. “You know, I said, ‘It’s going to disappear.’ I’ll say it again, ‘It’s going to disappear.’ And I’ll be right.”
Trump made similar false predictions in February, saying that the virus would “miraculously” go away by April and that the virus is “going to disappear ... like a miracle.”
The U.S. has so far had 3.7 million cases and 140,000 deaths, the most known cases of COVID-19 in the world, according to a tally kept by Johns Hopkins University.

this has been completely obvious to anyone that saw her speak for the 1st time during the COVID pressers
This video discusses the idea of using much cheaper, but less sensitive tests as way to safety allow children to go back to schools.
Based on CT value (Viral load indications) curves throughout the infection process and thresholds of transmissability, more frequent testing with the cheaper, less sensitive test can be more effective for go, no go decisions for whether a child should go to school.
These saliva based tests are easy to administer and provide a result in 10 minutes with a 95% confidence level. Although there is a more sensitive test, it costs over $100 and takes longer for a result. Further, most of the virus load this test picks up is after peak infection and considered below transmission thresholds. In other words, Even though this test is more sensitive, it is not relevant except in the first few hours of infection when viral loads are still below the dectection threshold of the cheaper test.
The speaker on this video says using this testing procedure would safely allow school reopening while maintaining R0 well below 1.
Thank you for watching and the intelligent response.
These clowns actually believed Covid-19 would somehow stop being contageous because infection numbers went down during the shutdown? Was the thinking like “You are a little bit pregnant”. “It is too early to tell if you should expect to have a baby”.(?)
My guess is Brix is the fall gal for Trump’s incompetence on the pandemic. No matter how one may choose the spin the decision making on this crisis, it comes back to mismanagement one way or another. The Democrats are going to have a field day with political ads in the last two weeks before the election.
I wonder how voters would respond to Trump admitting he screwed up on Covid-19, apologized for it, and offered a solid plan for going forward. If Trump’s polls dropped afterwards, he can can step down in time to be replaced by a new Republican candidate.
Libtards second worst nigtmare is a breakthrough covid-19 treatment before November. This is a small trial, but, it looks promising.

This Promising New COVID-19 Treatment Could Reduce Patient Deaths
An aerosol-based treatment could drastically reduce the number of new coronavirus patients dying from the disease or requiring intensive care, according to preliminary results released Monday by a British biotech firm.
In a randomised trial of 100 patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19, those who received an inhaled formula of the protein interferon beta were at 79 percent lower risk of developing severe disease compared to those who received a placebo.
They were also more than twice as likely to make a full recovery compared with the control group.
The firm behind the treatment, known as SNG001, said the preliminary results suggested "a major breakthrough" in the pandemic.
"We are all delighted with the trial results announced today, which showed that SNG001 greatly reduced the number of hospitalised COVID-19 patients who progressed from requiring oxygen to requiring ventilation," said Richard Marsden, CEO of Synairgen.
The results published Monday have not yet been peer-reviewed and the sample size is relatively small.
