Dr. Drew apologizes for comparing coronavirus to the flu

Drew was right in his initial these thesis, which was more geared to the media response rather than the virus itself. Notice he didn’t back track on his media stance.
Until these antibody test results come out, no one should be declaring victory on anything. -
Bob, can you please expand on the antibody tests? I've avoided the news for about 3 days and a friend told me I should go be tested to see if my blood could be helpful. There's a good chance I had this crap in February.Bob_C said:Drew was right in his initial these thesis, which was more geared to the media response rather than the virus itself.

Not Bob, but antibody tests show whether someone has had COVID and then recovered at some point, from the presence of natural immune system response. That is, you had the 'Vid, your body created antibodies to fight it off, and this test looks for those markers that remain after the 'Vid is gone. TheDuckHHunterisafag said:

I think it would be very interesting to do random antibody testing in WA. -

As have I. But some here are too stupid to understand the difference.Bob_C said:Drew was right in his initial these thesis, which was more geared to the media response rather than the virus itself. Notice he didn’t back track on his media stance.

Only Trump's downplaying of the virus matters. Pelosi, Schumer, Fauci don't count.MikeDamone said: -
The WHO, CDC, Fauci and Birx have demonstrated without fail that they have no clue about how treat and slow down this pandemic. In fact the only ones who do know are the ones in the field treating it.

I'm only doing the taint swab if she's hot. 5 years ago when I had to choose a new primary care physician this middle-aged, 7ish doctor walks in and begins all the pleasantries. I had already been looking at all her accolades on the wall which was oddly hot in its own way and now comes in that lady who I definitely wood.GrundleStiltzkin said:

It would show that way more have the antibodies than what is in the models. Which means that all these heroic actions by governors didn’t actually save this thing to the extent they will claim. Which means the data won’t ever be collected and/or released.

Seems as though their advocation for social distancing has shown promising results, those are the most public results they’ve shown that the public will understand.salemcoog said:The WHO, CDC, Fauci and Birx have demonstrated without fail that they have no clue about how treat and slow down this pandemic. In fact the only ones who do know are the ones in the field treating it.
If the WHO, CDC, Fauci or Birx discusses how they’re treating it and how to interpret results, the vast majority of those listening wouldn’t understand In the first place

Oh! So it's the old. "It's just too complex for everyone to understand" as they contradict themselves every week on information that they've provided earlier. Got it.MelloDawg said:

I think they’ve been fairly consistent in how they’ve advised the general public. How Birx and Fauci speak, and how they’re likely told to speak, is different than the anecdotal stories you hear from the field. I don’t doubt they’re in touch with the people in the field, but how they relay that info has to be different because of the platform they have.salemcoog said:

My Cuog! brother. This is when I'm reminded that you and I are better off sticking with things we know: making mediocre cheese, rooting for shit college football programs, getting very drunk and living with the reality of being perfectly average.salemcoog said:The WHO, CDC, Fauci and Birx have demonstrated without fail that they have no clue about how treat and slow down this pandemic.

There is no version of this conspiracy angle that has Fauci and all of the brain trust in those organizations not knowing something that docs in the field know.
The pressure on the people at the top of the pile in this thing is very really and very intense. Donnie and a lot of other very powerful people know that the public remembers the last thing you did and don't give one shit what you did for them yesterday. Donnie is watching his economic masterpiece collapse before his eyes. You really think he'd tolerate a guy running this circus who didn't know what docs on the ground know?
Come on man. I know you like this line of thinking, and at times it applies. But that version of it seems entirely implausible to me. -
This. If Fauci and anyone in infectious disease organizations had no idea what to do with this by *now*, the whole world would be fucked.creepycoug said:
