I realize that I am a master of the obvious but I still must say this — it is really troubling that you can’t find news you can trust from mainstream media sources. Just look at their headlines — they politicize EVERYTHING. How about just some reporting? Some facts?

bFauci Predicts 100K to 200K Deaths in U.S.
March 29, 2020 at 11:23 am EDT By Taegan Goddard 164 Comments
Dr. Anthony Fauci projected “millions” of coronavirus cases and “100,000 to 200,000” deaths in the United States, the AP reports.
Trump predicted it would soon be zero.

There Just Aren’t Medical Supplies to Buy

Associated Press:
“The billions of tax dollars headed for hospitals and states as part of the $2.2 trillion coronavirus response bill won’t fix the problem facing doctors and nurses: a critical shortage of protective gowns, gloves and masks. The problem isn’t a lack of money, experts say. It’s that there’s not enough of those supplies available to buy. What’s more, the crisis has revealed a fragmented procurement system now descending into chaos just as demand soars.”
States having to compete against states when we SHOULD be a united nation working together for the good of all.
Fauci predicts...
Is that a fact? Did Fauci predict that? Did the AP make it up? Is there a video of him saying it? Was the video faked?

Well hopefully you did your homework BEFORE posting this. Your track record is VERY POOR.
Please provide your links
Oh, prove me wrong. Go right ahead. Show us that AP lied.
james I've proved you wrong MULTIPLE TIMES over the last couple of days. Then you never responded. YOU POST THIS SHIT, YOU should be able to BACK IT UP YOURSELF.
but of course you can't or have provided something way out of context.
The "ball" is squarely in your court and I'm CONFIDENT YOU WILL FAIL AGAIN. Or if you do actually come back on this I will be able to SHOOT YOUR FUCKING SHIT DOWN. Again. Back up what you post
And in the same vein as what you are requesting post a link showing you are not a pederast. Else it must be true

I suggest you look at the actual interview:

You clink on the link here.
Then tell me if he actually made that statement. I don't see it.
The short story. Fauci didn't actually predicted that, the media just pulled out one the worst possibilities in the model and ran with. Fauci himself said "that was widely off the charts" and highly unlikely.
This is just irresponsible, fear mongering journalism. And I think Fauci would agree.
Commonsense said...

james is making the case that the media is lying (actually fits in the threads topic for once) and sensationalizing.
We all know he does and political_lire does
It's his hobby.
james the POS "pastor" is proven wrong AGAIN.
A sensible man would alter his behavior.
But an insane one will continue what he has done again and again.
We know which one the "pastor" is.
And he is a complete waste of time to read or respond to.
*spit*
It's right there in the video Commonsense linked. Fauci clearly stated that "I think" between 100,000 and 200,000 cases" and then he corrected himself, "deaths."
Here is the entire 15 minute CNN State of the Union interview.
https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/03/29/sotu-fauci-full.cnn
But this will not be the first time Commonsense says that someone didn't say what they did say.
WASHINGTON — As President Donald Trump looks for ways to restore normalcy in parts of the U.S., his foremost infection disease expert says the country could experience more than 100,000 deaths and millions of infections from the coronavirus pandemic.
Dr. Anthony Fauci, speaking on CNN's “State of the Union” on Sunday, offered his prognosis as the federal government weighs rolling back guidelines on social distancing in areas that have not been as hard-hit by the outbreak at the conclusion of the nationwide 15-day effort to slow the spread of the virus.
“I would say between 100,000 and 200,000 cases,” he said, correcting himself to say he meant deaths. “We're going to have millions of cases.” But he added “I don't want to be held to that” because the pandemic is “such a moving target.”
It's right there in the video Commonsense linked. Fauci clearly stated that "I think" between 100,000 and 200,000 cases" and then he corrected himself, "deaths."
context, pederast.
the broader topic was modeling and predictions and how hard it is to build them with any degree of accuracy.
his 100,000 to 200,000 cases/deaths was an example that he himself would not commit to predicting with any degree of accuracy.
you never take a day off from the lies and deceptions.
LOL You cannot twist that video into something that it is not.
Dr. Fauci is being frank, indicating that the situation is dire and could stretch into "millions" of cases and 100 to 200 thousand deaths. But of course he hopes it might not be that bad IF we could begin to intervene effectively, which he admits is not likely. Look at the end of the interview where effectively shoots down Trump's stupid 15 days and Easter deadlines.
Unlike you, Fauci refuses to carry water for Trump, although he does try to put his disagreements with Trump as diplomatically as he can, under the circumstances.
LOL You cannot twist that video into something that it is not.
It is exactly on the video as Rat describes. It is very clear Fauci was talking about modeling and worst cases scenarios that Fauci said and I quote "are widely off the charts".
To interpret it any different is deliberate lying and fear mongering.
Blogger James said...
LOL You cannot twist that video into something that it is not.
indeed, so stop trying.
one must take fauci's comments wildly and completely out of context to arrive at your conclusion.
you're a fucking liar, pederast. and a piss poor liar at that.
rrb said of james:

It's his hobby.
Before the whole modeling and ranges Fauci says "We don't have any firm idea"
Then james twists his response into something that implies a firm idea. Not mentioning using models he doesn't trust but are all that are available.
And he doesn't shoot down Trump's "stupid" 15 days and Easter deadlines. First of all they are not "deadlines". And they are not stupid. They are targets and they are flexible. And having goals are necessary.
It is clear the left will turn on Fauci in a New York second if he ends up supporting whatever the coronavirus task force comes up with and it involves loosening restrictions. Which it looks like he will go along with if things proceed in the direction he wants.
And especially so for the POS "pastor". Of course he will post whatever political_lire posts.
and CNN was running their chyron with "coronavirus deaths doubled over the last 2 days" during the interview
no wonder their viewers and people who believe them are so misinformed.
CNN = FAKE NEWS
Cuomo talking about easing restrictions too. Same as Trump. Oops.
BARTIROMO: Take us behind the curtain and tell us how this all shook out, senator, because Nancy Pelosi says she did jiu-jitsu on this relief bill to get it where it needs to be. And this morning, she is saying that the president is fiddling around while people are dying.
GRAHAM: No, she’s blaming the president of the United States for people dying because of the way he’s led the country. That’s the most shameful, disgusting statement by any politician in modern history. Let me tell you, we’ve seen the best of America from our citizens helping each other, delivering groceries, having special shopping hours for senior citizens. She’s the first politician to blame another politician for people dying. This is the same speaker of the House who held up the bill in the Senate for days because she wanted same-day voting. She wanted carbon neurtrality for the airlines. She wanted $75 million for the endowment for the humanities and $25 million for the Kennedy Center. She is the one who held up the package in the Senate for days to get the Green New Deal put in a recovery package. So, it’s the most shameful, disgusting thing I’ve heard yet, and it needs to stop.
I want my $25 million back Nancy.
The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts informed members of the National Symphony Orchestra that they would no longer be paid just hours after President Trump signed a $25 million taxpayer bailout for the cultural center, according to an email obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
Nearly 100 musicians will no longer receive paychecks after April 3, according to an email from the orchestra’s Covid-19 Advisory Committee.
“The Covid-19 Advisory Committee was broadsided today during our conversation with [Kennedy Center President] Deborah Rutter,” the email says. “Ms. Rutter abruptly informed us today that the last paycheck for all musicians and librarians will be April 3 and that we will not be paid again until the Center reopens.”
So why were they included in the relief bill at all? Yes, yes that is a rhetorical question.
The Kennedy Center did not return request for comment.
A veteran member of the orchestra, who requested anonymity for fear of reprisal, told the Washington Free Beacon that the decision “blindsided” musicians. The member welcomed the bailout package as necessary funding for the arts, but was stunned that it would not be used to cover payment for the artists.
“It’s very disappointing [that] they’re going to get that money and then drop us afterward,” the musician said. “The Kennedy Center blindsided us."
You’re a liar pederast
JAMES SAYS:
The Fauci video speaks for itself.
It certainly does NOT support Trump's attempts to dig himself out of what he dug himself into by claiming that we can immediately or even soon start opening up parts of the country that have fewer virus cases without running the risk of endangering THEIR populations as well.
Fauci makes that clear.
As diplomatically as he can put it, he says that there must FIRST be objective scientific and medical evidence that such an action would not lead to greater problems or even disasters.
Dr. Fauci makes it CLEAR that thus far there is not one single place in the USA where the curve has begun to flatten and the rates of infection and deaths have begun to decrease rather than increase. And until that happens, he says, it would be MOST unwise to loosen up on social distancing.
Or, as he also puts it, until we have the capability EFFECTIVELY TO TEST, WHICH WE DO NOT AT PRESENT HAVE, it would be unwise to do that.
Caliphate4vr said...
You’re a liar pederast
And now Caliphate4vr will list for us all the places in our country where the curve is flattening and the rate of virus infections and deaths is decreasing.
We will wait.
I don’t believe the curve should be flattened pederast, not at the cost of crushing the economy.
You do understand the volume under the curve doesn’t change, whether it spikes is draw out.
Some old people will die, life goes on
Fauci definitely believes and SAYS we need to see a flattening of the curve BEFORE we start reducing social distancing. Look at the video and tell me I am lying about that.
The following I saw in the Washington Post:
During a meeting of the Group of 20 nations, U.N. Secretary General António Guterres reminded the leaders of the exponential spread of the virus, saying
"the first 100,000 cases were confirmed in the first three months of the outbreak. The next 100,000 happened in just 12 days,” he said.
"The third took four days.
"The fourth, just one-and-a-half."
___________
I suppose some of you will say there's nothing to worry about there either.
Flatting out the curve is all about buying time.
Time for an effective treatment.
Time for an effective vaccine.
Both of which we would have been two months further along if the Chinese government hadn't lied.
The question is how expensive buying that time is and will it matter in the end.
One would think that IF James was ever a man of the cloth his post would be of hope and light and not doom and death.
Oh, but Trump told us we'd be down to zero long before now.
He was offering us hope and light.
I repeat 2:16PM.
Which US House of Representatives have over sight duties of public health?
"the first 100,000 cases were confirmed in the first three months of the outbreak. The next 100,000 happened in just 12 days,” he said.
"The third took four days.
"The fourth, just one-and-a-half."
You cannot confirm cases when nobody has tests for it.
The United States has administered 90% of their testing in the past week so. Most other countries are doing the same things.
Of course 90% of their "confirmed cases" will follow the same time period that they tested.
That doesn't mean that I am arguing that cases are not increasing.
But the CDC has been reporting new cases between 10-20K for the past several days.... today they reported that they had 444 new deaths from Saturday which was exactly two more than the 442 that they reported for Friday. So fortunately we have not seen the huge spike in deaths, and we are not seeing exponential growth (contrary to what some people are saying).
I strongly suspect that we will see these numbers continue to increase fairly consistent with how many people we are testing. That's just a mathematical certainty. You cannot "confirm" what you cannot test. The more tests you perform the more you will "confirm" cases.
What you need to watch for is an increase in the percentage of people testing positive (which would mean that more cases is likely more than just more tests). But as long as the positive/negative testing continues to remain fairly constant... the only true variable is the amount of tests.
Lastly... if you have been listening to the task force briefings, they are suggesting that the coronavirus will likely stick with us for at least the next two cold and flu seasons and even with vaccines it will likely infect and kill people (just as the flu does).
Fauci and Birx have both been looking at this in terms of what will happen over the next two year period, so take whatever they say in terms of "predictions" based on that fact.
It's been fairly consistent that of the the people tested 1 to 2% test positive.
And these are the people (according to CDC guidelines) most strongly suspected of having the coronavirus.
If you to truly randomize testing that number may drop.
Washington Post live updates:
Confirmed cases of coronavirus worldwide passed 700,000 on Sunday, as countries warned the virus could disrupt lives for months, if not years.
In the United States, White House coronavirus task force member Anthony S. Fauci said the country could record 100,000 to 200,000 deaths and millions of infections, according to current but rapidly evolving projections.
Here are some significant developments:
=Deborah Birx, coordinator of the White House task force, offered a grim assessment: “No state, no metro area, will be spared.”
=The U.S. has reported more than 2,300 coronavirus-related deaths and 130,000 confirmed cases.
=Louisiana’s governor warned that his state’s health system is at risk of being overwhelmed with patients in a matter of days. Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo (D) said he believes his state’s death toll would eventually reach the “thousands.”
=Britain could take six months or more to return to “normal,” a health official said, while Japan is seeing a sudden acceleration in coronavirus cases.
=Moscow will enact a citywide quarantine starting Monday in Russia’s most restrictive coronavirus-related measure yet.
=Italy reported a slight decline in deaths on Sunday, with 756 dead in the past 24 hours, raising the country’s total to 10,799.
=War-ravaged Syria reported its first death.
=There are more than 33,000 covid-related fatalities worldwide.
=African countries need emergency economic stimulus now, U.N. commission says/ The worst of the coronavirus outbreak is two to three weeks away for Africa, and countries on the continent need an emergency influx of money to implement more preventive measures and strengthen weak health-care systems, the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA) told Bloomberg News.
=UNECA Executive Secretary Vera Songwe said a $100 billion emergency economic stimulus package is needed to allow countries to bolster hospitals and social safety nets while implementing social distancing policies that experts say can stave off the virus’s spread.
“If we want to have a fighting chance, we need it immediately,” she told Bloomberg. “In the next two to three weeks, if we act really decisively, we may be able to flatten the curve, and then when the storm comes, it will not be as brutal as we see in Europe.”
To help pay for the fund, Songwe called on multilateral institutions to waive interest payments for countries on the continent, which the commission estimated at $44 billion for 2020. Echoing calls from African finance ministers, she also suggested that interest payments for sovereign bonds be made available for countries to spend on addressing the pandemic. High rates of debt owed by many African countries to foreign institutions have in part impeded domestic investments in public services, health care included.
So far, there are more than 3,000 confirmed cases of the coronavirus in 46 African countries, according to the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
But experts are warning that the continent is facing acute medical shortages, including on average only 1.8 beds per 1,000 people, according to UNECA data.
“Our hospital systems are so weak and so stressed already that another stress on them is going to break them,” Songwe said.
--The article goes on and on and gets grimmer and grimmer.
Lastly... if you have been listening to the task force briefings, they are suggesting that the coronavirus will likely stick with us for at least the next two cold and flu seasons and even with vaccines it will likely infect and kill people (just as the flu does).
We are ALL going to eventually get it

But far more important than any of that,
I repeat my posts 2:16 and 2:19 above. The last of which ends:
And now Caliphate4vr [or any of you] will list for us all the places in our country where the curve is flattening and the rate of virus infections and deaths is decreasing.
We will wait.
A Dozen Sick After Students Return to Liberty University
March 29, 2020 at 4:24 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 161 Comments
“As Liberty University’s spring break was drawing to a close this month, Jerry Falwell Jr., its president, spoke with the physician who runs Liberty’s student health service about the rampaging coronavirus,” the New York Times reports.
“So Mr. Falwell — a staunch ally of President Trump and an influential voice in the evangelical world — reopened the university last week, igniting a firestorm, epidemiologically and otherwise. As of Friday, nearly a dozen Liberty students were sick with symptoms that suggest Covid-19, the disease caused by the virus.”

You *can’t decrease the number infected
Don't be stupid.
You CAN decrease the number BEING infected each day week, month. year,etc.
That's called flattening the curve, as Dr. Fauci pointed out.

FLORIDA CHURCH PACKED WITH WORSHIPERS
... Pastor Shuns Social Distancing
BREAKING NEWS
This is the clear and present danger ... people continuing to congregate -- squeezing into close quarters like sardines -- and that's exactly what happened Sunday at a Florida Church.
The River Church in Tampa was packed to the gills with worshipers who clearly were looking for hope. Pastor Rodney Howard-Browne, who presides over the megachurch and has been reportedly defiant over social distancing, has claimed he'll cure coronavirus just the way he did with Zika.
He has vowed he will never close his church ... despite every doctor and scientist saying social distancing is the only thing that will prevent the disease from spreading even more.
The Pastor boasted his place was white-glove clean, saying, “We brought in 13 machines that basically kill every virus in the place, and uh, if somebody walks through the door it’s like, it kills everything on them. If they sneeze, it shoots it down at like 100 mph. It'll neutralize it in split seconds. We have the most sterile building in, I don’t know, all of America.” [James' aside: Sounds a lot like Trump, doesn't he?]
Howard-Browne said on March 17, "We are not stopping anything. I've got news for you, this church will never close. The only time the church will close is when the Rapture is taking place.”
The Pastor has peddled ridiculous theories in the past, but this takes the cake. [That's part of the op ed, not my statement. The article continues:]
The scariest part ... all these people showed up elbow-to-elbow. If they contract the disease, they are the ones most likely to spread it, because they are clearly not practicing or understanding social distancing.
BTW ... Pastor Joel Osteen, who presides over the Lakewood Church in Houston, is doing virtual services to protect his congregation.
As for Howard-Browne ... well, faith is important, but seriously ... risking the health and safety of the people who come to worship ... really outrageous and irresponsible.

“President Trump is a ratings hit. Since reviving the daily White House briefing Mr. Trump and his coronavirus updates have attracted an average audience of 8.5 million on cable news, roughly the viewership of the season finale of ‘The Bachelor.’ Numbers are continuing to rise.
On Monday, nearly 12.2 million people watched Mr. Trump’s briefing on CNN, Fox News and MSNBC, according to Nielsen — ‘Monday Night Football’ numbers. Millions more are watching on ABC, CBS, NBC and online streaming sites, and the audience is expanding. On Monday, Fox News
alone attracted 6.2 million viewers for the president’s briefing — an astounding number for a 6 p.m. cable broadcast, more akin to the viewership for a popular prime-time sitcom...

NBC's Chuck Todd under fire for asking Biden if Trump has 'blood on his hands' for delayed coronavirus response
The "Meet the Press" moderator faced backlash on social media for asking the question on the long-running Sunday morning show.
"Tim Russert would never ask a question like this. Even Joe Biden didn’t take the bait to assist in a viral moment attempt," The Hill media reporter Joe Concha said, referring to Todd's "Meet The Press" predecessor.
Concha added: "Chuck Todd served as a moderator of an NBC News debate on Feb 19, which was more than two weeks after President Trump suspended travel from China. Number of questions Todd asked any of the candidates about Coronavirus? Zero."
Todd served as a moderator at the two-hour MSNBC/NBC News Democratic debate last month, where there was no mention of the ongoing virus outbreak.
CNN CRITICIZED AFTER GRAPHIC WRONGLY STATES THAT TRUMP WAS 'INCORRECT' ABOUT US VIRUS TESTING CLAIM
Others also piled on the NBC News anchor over his exchange with Biden.
"Infuriating, Rage-inducing media gaslighting," Turning Point USA chief creative officer Benny Johnson said.
GOP rapid response director Steve Guest called Todd "completely unhinged" over the question.
"When Chuck Todd's attacks on @realDonaldTrump are too much for even Biden, you got a problem," Guest said.
And today Graham was asked about Pelosi's statement where she claimed Trumps diddling around had cost lives. He said it was the most despicable thing he had ever heard in politics.

CALIPHOOL SAID:

JAMES SAID:
OH REALLY?
You CAN decrease the number (volume) of people BEING infected each day week, month. year,etc. by "flattening the curve", as Dr. Fauci pointed out.
AND NOW I QUOTE:
__________________
Flattening the Coronavirus Curve
The longer it takes for coronavirus to spread the population, the more time hospitals have to prepare and thus limiting the damage of the coronavirus.
"A chart of Community Mitigation Guidelines to Prevent Pandemic Influenza, shows two epi curves.
"One with a steep peak indicating a surge of coronavirus outbreak in the NEAR term;
"the other with a flatter slope, indicating a more gradual rate of infection over a LONGER period of time.
"The gentler curve results in FEWER people infected at this critical moment in time — preventing a surge that would inundate the healthcare system and ultimately, one hopes, resulting in FEWER deaths."
“What we need to do is flatten that down,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci in a coronavirus task force briefing at the White House. “You do that with trying to interfere with the natural flow of the outbreak.”
_____________
JAMES SAYS:
So a flatter curve means a lesser number (volume) of cases wherever the curve is flatter.
How can anyone with the least smidgen of a brain fail to see that?
No, it's same volume is spread out over a longer time.
As I said this buys time and keeps healthcare system from being overloaded.
It's not about preventing people from getting the virus. Without a vaccine most people will be infected to a greater or lesser degree.
stupid here is a picture you don’t change the number, it’s a constant under curve
President Trump Extends Social Distancing guidelines another 2 Weeks.
Smart, listening to Medical advisors.
So, does flattening the curve work?
It did in 1918, when a strain of influenza known as the Spanish flu caused a global pandemic. To see how it played out, we can look at two U.S. cities
— Philadelphia and St. Louis —
Drew Harris, a population health researcher at Thomas Jefferson University in Philadelphia, told NPR.org.
In Philadelphia,
city officials ignored warnings from infectious disease experts that the flu was already spreading in the community. The city instead moved forward with a massive parade that gathered hundreds of thousands of people together, Harris said.
"Within 48, 72 hours, thousands of people around the Philadelphia region started to die," Harris said. Ultimately, about 16,000 people from the city died in six months.
In St. Louis, meanwhile,
city officials quickly implemented social isolation strategies. The government closed schools, limited travel and encouraged personal hygiene and social distancing. As a result, the city saw just 2,000 deaths — one-eighth of the casualties in Philadelphia.
The city of St. Louis, now known for its towering Gateway Arch, had successfully flattened the curve.
So April 30th is the new date for whatever.
stupid here is a picture you don’t change the number, it’s a constant under curve
So the people in St. Louis had just as many cases of infection as they would have had if they had done what the people in Philadelphia did?
Don't THINK so!
James have you obeyed the Stay at home order?
So a flatter curve means a lesser number (volume) of cases wherever the curve is flatter.
this is why i am convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt that you are a complete fucking moron...
take 10 deaths.
take 10 deaths over a week = pretty flat curve.
take 10 deaths over two days = curve not so flat.
you still had 10 deaths, pederast. the flatness of the curve is determined by the time frame in which they occurred.
Hey goat fucker......you have a brain yet????? BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! April 30 another aspirational wish from the idiot in chief with no basis in anything!!!!!! God you people have rocks in your heads!!!!
The reason things are still going down hill
As Trump declared virus under control, local leaders faced confusion, chaos as cases piled up
