Bingo!

So I guess everybody should just follow what he says of drinking bleach as well?

Are you got to lose? It is what it is. Such inspiring and caring thoughts.

Trump banking on a vaccine before the election shows you how desperate he is. Too funny.

How many do those deaths died solely because of Covid? How many had preexisting conditions?

Infection rate? Unless we test every single citizen we won’t know the tie infection rate and you can’t stop all infections unless you have perpetual lockdowns

Robert Redfield at the end of the day is a Doctor he took a Hippocratic oath to tell the Truth he can't be a lying shill for Trump and keep his reputation.

If you worked in a business and the CEO or President of the company told everything that an important initiative was going to be rolled out by October and you worked for that man, wouldn't it be logical to tell everyone who would listen that the CEO is right, regardless of your personal viewpoint? The CEO is the boss!

Who agrees with me that CDC Director Robert Redfield should be fired for publically disagreeing with his boss?

You can believe the guy who is a physician with expertise in clinical research and management of infectious disease and co-founded the Institute of Human Virology at the University of Maryland School of Medicine.

served as a tenured professor of medicine and microbiology,chief of infectious disease, and vice chair of medicine at University of Maryland medical school

Or
the guy who paid someone to take his SATs And has NO virology or medical training
