Popular Post webfact Posted October 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2020 Top U.S. health official Fauci says Trump no longer coronavirus contagious: CBS interview By Carl O'Donnell FILE PHOTO: Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, speaks during a Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing in Washington, D.C., U.S. June 30, 2020. Al Drago/Pool via REUTERS (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump is no longer capable of spreading the novel coronavirus and can attend a town hall on Thursday without putting others at risk, top U.S. public health official Anthony Fauci said in an interview with CBS Evening News. Fauci said that he and his colleague Clifford Lane at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) concluded this after reviewing all the COVID-19 tests taken by the president as well as an additional test conducted at an NIH laboratory. Trump revealed early on Oct. 2 that he had tested positive for the novel coronavirus. He said he had recovered and was no longer contagious the following week. The town hall with NBC News is less than three weeks before the election in which Republican Trump is trailing Democratic candidate Joe Biden in opinion polls. Fauci also said in the CBS interview that the United States was unlikely to have 100 million doses of a vaccine deemed by regulators as "safe and effective" available by the end of the year, contrary to a claim Trump made in September. Enough vaccines to inoculate the general population might be possible by April 2021 if all of the experimental vaccines in late stage clinical trials prove effective, Fauci said. A couple of the vaccine candidates could potentially receive regulatory clearance in November or December but only "a few million" doses may be available to the public by year-end. He added that the experimental antibody drug made by Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc <REGN.O> that was used to treat the President, and which Trump said he wants to make free to all Americans, is not yet available in sufficient supply to provide to all COVID-19 patients. It is still awaiting U.S. regulatory clearance.

Popular Post TopDeadSenter Posted October 14, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 14, 2020 Trump proven right yet again, as expected. The pattern was formed years ago, Trump makes a statement, he is attacked in all manner of sick and depraved ways, then facts show he was correct all along. By which time they have all jumped on to the next wild theory. The best way to view Trump and his covid, is not be be devastated he survived it, but relieved that perhaps it is not quite as terrifying as feared. At any rate it is not a certain death sentence even for unfit older males that are obese and live on McDonalds patties and diet Coke. And that is a good positive message. Thanks to DrFauci(and this will not have been easy for him) for clearing up all the false smears and accusations that Trump is a mass murderer for going out to see his fans and other farfetched accusations. The record states, Trump is not contagious. 5 7 1 5 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, it's not like he hosted a superspreader event: White House hosted Covid 'superspreader' event, says Dr Fauci https://www.bbc.com/news/election-us-2020-54487154 But at least, once it was established that it was a superspreader event, the White House did everything it could to do contact tracing...oh wait a minute White House declines to conduct contact tracing for Rose Garden event, despite cluster of infection https://www.businessinsider.com/white-house-declines-conduct-contact-tracing-for-rose-garden-event-2020-10 And it's a good thing that Trump was being regularly tested for Covid including before the debate as he had agreed to do: Why won't White House say when Trump last tested negative? https://apnews.com/article/virus-outbreak-donald-trump-a6c145029afb7a28bd739969387813e8 5 9 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post brianp0803 Posted October 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2020 President Trump was very brave to take an experimental drug. I thought I’ve been seeing hundreds of posts from people saying they don’t want to take experimental drugs and vaccines. And now people are criticizing Trump for taking experimental drug, which they don’t want to take. Make up your mind people. Are you willing to take experimental drugs that might save your life or might cause you harm? 3 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I can claim that I've seen hundreds of post from people who say they would take experimental drugs. Dr. Fauci was very confident about this medication. He expected it to be approved in September. He was off by a bit but the fact is that it is very close to being approved. Trump wasn't exactly running an heroic risk. 5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Emdog Posted October 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2020 "U.S. President Donald Trump is no longer capable of spreading the novel coronavirus and can attend a town hall on Thursday without putting others at risk...." He will leave the spreading aspect up to his followers without masks, without social distancing. Holding unnecessary rally, violating all sane pandemic guidelines, is putting others at risk.

Popular Post tpazzi Posted October 15, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 15, 2020 Trump catches Covid-19 and gets sick enough that he winds up going to a government run hospital and gets treated by a team of government paid doctors who treated with an experimental therapy developed with funds from Federal research grants... ...all so he can rush out on the campaign trail and bash socialism.

People are not criticizing Trump for receiving an experimental drug rather they are slamming his hypocrisy in receiving socialised Govt funded healthcare whilst doing his utmost to destroy the ACA and take that same care away from 10's of millions of Americans in the middle of a pandemic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on as it's impossible to get infected after the debate with Biden and become clear of the virus in such a short time. As no details of tests taken before his positive reveal are given one can assume he knew he was infected or he was not tested anytime before the debate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That he got over Covid-19 using the best resources the country got on offer, still doesn't take away from doing his bit to spread Covid-19.

Using Trump’s definition of hero; he is not a hero when he allowed the deaths of more than 214,000 deaths under his watch. I prefer a hero that has no death. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
