All of this could have been avoided. It's disgusting. Repulsive. I am utterly nauseated by the deluge of misinformation by right-wing news pundits. At the current rate of growth, in just two weeks we'll surpass 200,00 deaths. All because of one man and his fucking enablers and absolutely psychotic fanbase.

Incoming meltdown?

No. But I had to witness one of my patients die on a ventilator today and I just need to vent. She had no medical problems. Her daughter's wedding was next week and before she was intubated she had to talk with her daughter on the phone because visitors aren't allowed.

She died alone.

His approval ratings are actually up. Even among independents, according to some reports. Imagine that. Contribute to the death of thousands and you're still more popular for it.

Why not, everyone from the right is hypocritical scum. They caused these deaths too by helping spread the hoax and no worse than the flu. When some of my idiot older coworkers are dying from coronavirus I'm gonna call them on their death bed and ask them to remind me again how many people die a year from th4 common flu.

TC is right. Trump could've made a huge difference but instead he chose to prioritize the markets over american lives. He claims he decided to do the travel ban but really even before that major airlines began suspending flights to china. And his ban still allowed american citizens and families to come through a screening checkpoint, which as we know can miss alot of people who have the virus.

Trump also went weeks downplaying the threat, so most americans believe this is no big deal. Its not that they believe its a hoax but they just think its no big deal, if they get it then whup dee doo, maybe get hospitalized, but they probably won't die. The last few days the weather has been great in Lousiana so my wife and I have been going out for walks. We met this young professional couple, we stayed about 10 feet apart, chatted, they were chill. Yesterday met this redneck looking guy who wanted to shake our hands. He invited us over to play cornhole, says he's got a bunch of neighbors coming over, he's gonna grill, have some beers. I'm like breh are you serious. And this place has the fastest growing rate of new cases in the entire world.

Again, people sitting at home don't fully comprehend how bad it is because they don't see it infront of their eyes. They just hear from the news, but because they're fine and everyone they know is fine, they doubt the media, particularly when the white house is telling us this is no big deal and that the media is blowing it up.

And perhaps it couldn't have been prevented altogether, but certainly we could've had an intensified response from the beginning that allows us to identify and aggressively contact trace, and test some more.

Trump had all the intel in the world very early on when there were no cases. I could also go on and on with specific details on how he has continued to botch the whole process even after it slapped him in the face. Even now he continues to fuck up daily.

This is probably the first story I've read about that legitimately worries me. If a woman with zero medical issues dies within a week, what possible hope does a dude like me have? Christ.

I'm pretty sure some of the alternatives in this situation would have been:

1) Keep the pandemic response team instead of firing them like Trump did.
2) Don't cut funding to the CDC like Trump did.
3) Listen to the CDC and health experts about handling the pandemic instead of repeatedly ignoring their advice like Trump did.
4) Don't repeatedly downplay the the severity of the pandemic with obvious bullshit like Trump did.

First for me with this amount of...first hand experience. Because I take this shit so seriously, and mom does too, no one we know in our family or group of friends have the virus. I've also been hunkered in my house for the past three weeks now, only going out for chemo.

So, yeah. Seeing someone I know online, who is a medical professional, tell me that a middle aged woman with zero medical issues, access to a ventilator and, what I assume was a swift hospitalization that didn't try to turn her away before she was SEVERELY sick, dies in a week...yeah, it's the first that's effected me on this level.

I dont know if its a political agenda so much as it is frustration with how the administration chose to squander all of the extra time they had for what seems likely hubris.

Im a republican resident physician and this whole scenario has me so angry and disheartened with the way right-leaning policymakers are treating this. All of my physician colleagues, residents and attendings, myself included, are really rethinking our political alignment (although I can truly only speak for myself).
