2020-02-28 Government
White House GAGS government health experts from speaking about coronavirus
  • Must have Mike Pence's approval for EVERYTHING they say about mounting crisis - despite VP having zero medical qualifications

  • Clampdown comes a day after Donald Trump put Pence in charge of response

  • Even NIH virus expert Anthony Fauci is muzzled without prior approval

  • News comes after White House unveiled ANOTHER coronavirus coordinator amid market selloff

  • Pence said she would oversee the effort

  • HHS Secretary Alex Azar, a former pharmaceutical exec, leads a coronavirus task force
    Good idea. Pharmaceutical company = vaccine development, manufacture, distribution.
  • Concerns California patient contracted disease without coming into contact with a known traveler or infected person

  • Pence himself is appearing on 'Hannity' to discuss the coronovirus
All those poor NeverTrump Deep Staters are being kept from whipping up hysteria through selected leaks and pronouncements to their mainstream media pals while an experienced executive gets on with managing the various teams involved in researching tests, treatments and vaccines on one side and making sure supplies are in place for hospitals and police managing quarantines and keeping public order on the other.

#3 How many hospital executives have medical degrees?

Pence has a management role; after Rosenstein's sister had her little fear-fest press conference, restricting what idiots can say makes sense.

#4 It's not like VP Pence, along w/ Pres Trump, has the power to knock down agency silos, cut red tape and move funding to contain the virus. Yeah, zero qualification. Way to inform the public, MSM.

#5 How many hospital executives have medical degrees

None I know of and I was in admin at three different hospitals and consulted for another dozen or so.

#6 We can kill viral transmission in drinking water without chemicals (like chlorine) or added energy (like UV radiation). Carbon nanotube-based filter assemblies utterly disrupt bacterial DNA and viral RNA so that the fragments are destroyed - no grow through. SOCOM bought all we could make. Chlorine and UV can sterilize surfaces and clothing. You can't make people wash their hands or instantly adopt sanitary habits. And you can never silence the fools in media.

#8 First it was information warfare vs OrangeMan.
Then Mueller-Congressional lawfare.
Now it's - what, medi-fare vs OrangeMan?

#9 Good. The last thing we want is unwarrented panic.

And these deep state fucktards would cause a panic.

#10 And then there's this nugget, which appears in article posted by CU6397 farther down on Page 6 "An official from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention making public statements on the outbreak is the sister of Rod Rosenstein..."

#11 You don't have to be a doctor to see that Information releases are causing panic. They need to do their jobs in controlling this virus and stop grandstanding in front of the press.

#12 Quarantine Congress will solve a lot of public health and safety issues. Just sayin'.
