Sarah Al-Arshani, Business Insider•October 6, 2020

• Dr. Anthony Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said the White House coronavirus outbreak is not a hoax and that it could have been prevented.
• More than a dozen White House officials and staff including President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump have tested positive for COVID-19.
• Across the country, more than 7 million people have been infected with COVID-19.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the leading US infectious disease expert, said the White House coronavirus outbreak is "not a hoax' and could have been prevented.
"It's an unfortunate situation when you see something like that because that could have been prevented," Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said in a virtual conversation with students and families at American University on Tuesday.
More than a dozen White House officials and staff including President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump have tested positive for COVID-19. Trump announced his diagnosis on Friday.
Many of those who tested positive attended an event last Saturday where Trump announced Judge Amy Coney Barrett as his Supreme Court nominee. Photos of the event showed people socializing without masks and ignoring other social distancing measures meant to reduce the spread of the coronavirus.
In response to a question by a student on how to handle family members who still don't believe the virus is real or serious, Fauci said: "Right now we have 210,000 people who have died and 7.3 million people (who) have been infected. Globally, there are over 1 million people who have died. That is not a hoax."
He added: "You can't say that people all over the world and American allies are all lying and calling it a hoax."

Yes, and those death figures are likely under estimates.

Nice try bitch. Given his six bankruptcies, decades of tax evasion, tanking multiple casinos, and stiffing contractors and cities he held rallies in, I'd say your fat, infected, felonious fuckwad doesn't know anything about living and paying his bills, you hypocritical, no nothing cocksucker. Still babbling about an "oversold" virus, you fucking moron?

"Florida's Covid-19 situation will be like a "house on fire" in a few weeks, infectious disease expert says"


Florida will be “like a house on fire” in another few weeks because the state has dropped coronavirus precautions, and President Trump probably should not hold a rally there right now, infectious disease specialist Mike Osterholm said Friday.

“Florida is ripe for another large outbreak,” Osterholm, the director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, told CNN’s Jake Tapper Friday. “What they've done is opened up everything as if nothing had ever happened there and you and I could be talking probably in eight to 10 weeks, and I will likely bet that Florida will be a house on fire. “

​

Trump, who has been battling Covid-19 for the past week, is heading to Florida Monday for a campaign rally.

Osterholm said it’s probably not a good idea to hold a rally in the state right now, even if it’s held outside. The state has reported 2,900 new infections in the past day, according to Johns Hopkins University.

“The challenge we have is helping the American people understand if you bring people together, even when they're outdoors, it's less risk of transmission being close together outdoors, but it's surely not zero," he said.

Trump is also planning an outdoor gathering at the White House Saturday and said he’ll address the crowd from a balcony.

Osterholm said attending that event isn’t a good idea either.

“I wouldn't go right now because I think the White House itself has a fair number of infections.”

Trump was just released from the hospital Monday and other administration staffers are still battling the virus.

including this quote!

Dr. Anthony Fauxchi, on the effectiveness of wearing masks: "There is no reason to be walking around with a mask. When you’re in the middle of an outbreak, wearing a mask might make people feel a little bit better and it might even block a droplet but it is not providing the protection that people think that it is and often there are unintended consequences, people keep fiddling with the mask and they keep touching their face."

Cherry pick much, scumbag? Note Fauci's comments subsequently made on the topic. How come you haven't on Trump saying, in early February that the virus was "deadly stuff," FIVE times more serious than even a serious flu, but now saying it's NOT as deadly as the flu, not to mention, catching it himself and spreading it to many people who directly or indirectly work for him? Answer: you're a hypocritical, delusional, dishonest douchebag, that's why.

• Dr. Anthony Fauci, the nation's top infectious disease expert, says he doesn't regret advising Americans against wearing masks early on in the COVID-19 pandemic.
• In an interview with CBS Evening News anchor Norah O'Donnell published in InStyle, Fauci defended his credibility and decision-making in response to recent attempts from the White House to undermine him.
• "I don't regret anything I said then because in the context of the time in which I said it, it was correct. We were told in our task force meetings that we have a serious problem with the lack of PPEs," he said.
